Is any one else sick and tired of seeing the sordid details of their lives plastered over the media. Rich entitled people who just can't live decent lives.

This issue has been an item on C4 news every evening. It’s been hard to avoid. It all seems sordid and horrible.

Though I am glad that someone has the financial resources to take on the Sun newspaper.

However, during a pandemic, with the country facing a significant recession and unemployment steeply rising, it seems extraordinary that we have to see this matter, covered nightly on the news.

They certainly deserve each other ! 6 of one and half a dozen of the other when it comes to their ways of life.

The whole lot of them make me sick, so affected and narcissistic. I've got no time for them.

I've never liked Depp anyway and have always thought that there was " something missing " !

I think Amber was misnamed. She should have been called Red. She has such rages. (Allegedly)

Whitewavemark2 Thu 23-Jul-20 06:00:21

Murdoch rag being sued, so bound to be continuously plastered everywhere.

Took me a while before I realised it wasn’t the former Home Secretary they were referring to......

Why is a woman independent and wealthy in her own life staying with a man she claims abuses her?

Marthjolly1 Thu 23-Jul-20 00:26:11

But why on earth does the media give this all so much airtime. It's hardly of any importance. I just don"t get it. Who cares?

he always looked a bit dirty, in need of a shower and shampoo

Yes! Maybe that's his magnetism!

Oopsminty Wed 22-Jul-20 23:38:59

As for her - Amber Who?

Exactly, Callistemon!

I have to admit to rather fancying Johnny

Or the Johnny of a few years ago

He appears to have lost his vavavoom

Oopsminty Wed 22-Jul-20 23:36:09

I'm sure he wishes he'd never started the whole sorry saga

But The Sun said he was a wife beater which made it difficult for him to get work so he had to take action

They are also having a similar case later in the year in USA

Just a massive, tawdry mess

No idea who will win

My mum used to say ‘well they don’t spoil another couple’.

Bluebelle it's a major news item on the main news!
As if we are bovvered.

I never liked him, he always looked a bit dirty, in need of a shower and shampoo, and was very cross when he smuggled those two dogs into Australia and then trashed the rented property.

As for her - Amber Who?

Another reason to switch off the news!

merlotgran Wed 22-Jul-20 22:39:54

I don't know the details either, BlueBelle but as I'm thankfully neither deaf nor blind I can't entirely escape the fact that the coverage pops up whether I want it to or not.

tidyskatemum Wed 22-Jul-20 22:30:58

Well at least it gives the media something to talk about instead of Harry and Meghan! I used to like Johnny Depp but he's obviously lost the plot and she just comes across as a gold digger. As other posters have said, six of one and half a dozen of the other.

BlueBelle Wed 22-Jul-20 22:29:14

I don’t think you hear the details unless you want to though merlotgran I couldn’t tell you anything at all about it except their manes and that it’s about spousal abuse because I ve neither listened or read anything about it so it’s not bothering me
It’s about choice

Six of one and half a dozen of the other! Crazy couple of nutcases!

Why are they battling it out in London?

he is suing a newspaper for defamation, i think it's the sun.
that's why it's in london.

phoenix Wed 22-Jul-20 22:22:27

Reading about it is optional.

I choose not to.

merlotgran Wed 22-Jul-20 22:22:26

I don't read it or deliberately listen to any of it, BlueBelle but as it's being shoved in our faces I think it's reasonable to comment on how annoying the coverage is.

Grannmarie Wed 22-Jul-20 22:22:25

Cotswoldslass, ?, like minds!

I wouldn't swap places with them for all their millions, they must live miserable lives.

BlueBelle Wed 22-Jul-20 22:19:45

But why listen to it or read about it I know it’s going on but haven’t seen any details or information as I m not following it at all
Pass it on by

Ellianne Wed 22-Jul-20 22:15:12

I think it just goes to show how attention seeking most of these celebrities really are.

Calendargirl Wed 22-Jul-20 21:29:03

Every news programme features them going in and out of court, he makes daft signs to his groupies, she wafts about taking her face covering on and off.

Like Sodapop, I found myself wondering today, “Who gives a toss about their relationship?”

And his hair looks greasy and awful.

Cotswoldslass Wed 22-Jul-20 20:28:05

I agree - in some papers, it has been front-page news. Honestly - why would you want to know about other people's private lives - Grannmarie - my mother always said: "washing their dirty linen in public" & I could not agree more ( by coincidence her name was Marie!) .....I just turn over the pages & ignore them however it does annoy me with so many tragic events going on in the world we have this trivial, pathetic story splashed over the pages...

Chewbacca Wed 22-Jul-20 20:23:23

Very true Urmstongran!
