Is anyone watching this? I’ve switched on now and then as like the camp chats. There is one guy in, never heard of him, however don't know most of them, who seems of very fragile mental health.

I can’t stand this programme. Those poor creatures that are used for their tasks (or whatever they are called). It’s cruelty and is totally unnecessary.

I once sprayed a cockroach with cockroach killer in Australia.
I've felt guilty ever since 😟

I just don't get the worship and praise of CR as if she's other than trying to shore up 'Rooney PLC' as her husband slides down the football scale.
The others are all 'celebrities' due to their own talents rather than being associated with someone else with a specific talent.' That's my point. Obviously I've not been clear enough.

Iam64 Wed 27-Nov-24 12:20:21

You’ve been very clear about the disdain in which you hold CR, Aveline. What on earth are you talking about suggesting ‘worship’ and praise and yet again, sneering at her.
The Wagatha case put CR in the press entirely on her own merits. Her popularity grew as a result of the crazy court case, which she hadn’t wanted but RV insisted on. She seems to be a very good mother and has ‘managed’ Wayne because the love each other. At least, that’s how I see it

Anniebach Wed 27-Nov-24 12:31:21

Iam it’s how you see it but not everyone, defending someone you admire but why get personal with any critics , I have stopped having any opinion on Coleen, couldn’t post if my
opinion was negative

Smileless2012 Wed 27-Nov-24 12:34:12

That's how I see it too Iam.

Apart from having fallen in love with WR before he became a famous football player, standing by him despite his infidelity, having 4 (I think) children, being happily married, wealthy and attractive, what is is about CR that appears to upset you so much Aveline?

Anniebach Wed 27-Nov-24 12:37:25

Infidelity? do tell please

heavenlyheath Wed 27-Nov-24 13:52:31

Can't stand it we need something new lord knows how much making it costs money that could go into more dramas. They need to cut down on so called celeb trash.

knspol Wed 27-Nov-24 13:52:44

Watched part of the very first series and have never watched since, did not like it at all

One thing I’ve noticed- all these celebrities have the most beautiful teeth 🦷

Most of them have veneers on their teeth. ‘Tis no secret.
No one’s teeth are naturally that white or perfect.
They have paid thousands for their teeth to look that good.
If I could afford it I’d have mine done but not so blindingly white lol

Anniebach Wed 27-Nov-24 14:22:58

Too white, the teeth don’t look good they look false

Kate1949 Wed 27-Nov-24 14:29:46

It seems to be a 'thing' now with celebrities, startlingly white teeth.

ordinarygirl Wed 27-Nov-24 14:47:40

The series is not for me - It should not be in the main channels but pushed to ITV2 or similar.

TanaMa Wed 27-Nov-24 15:29:40

I think all the 'Turkey' teeth look dreadful, really don't know why nearly all so called 'celebrities' have the work done. If they have an irregularity it can be made to look better by a good dentist, but to pay £thousands to all look the same with blindingly white tombstones!! Ugh, horrible.

Knittypamela Wed 27-Nov-24 16:20:02

I actually like Dean. He has a fun personality and is very entertaining. Barry is a gent and I felt so sorry for him when he broke down about his daughter.

Aveline Wed 27-Nov-24 16:52:33

Why do we never see Tulisa plastering on her make up and false eyelashes? The others don't seem to wear any make up. Maybe it was part of Tulisa's deal to refrain from filming her with a clean face?

Casdon Wed 27-Nov-24 16:56:55

She has Bells Palsy, which is why she looks odd, injectables to stop her face drooping, the poor woman. If I were in that position I’d want my full make up face on too.

Kate1949 Wed 27-Nov-24 17:07:17

They are not supposed to take make up in supposedly.

escaped you beat me to it.

CR is far from hanging onto Wayne’s coattails

She has indeed got 10 GCSEs including A*’s, has written columns for various magazines, written four books, collaborated on a TV program researching the illness her sister died of.

Wayne may be a talented footballer, but I think she is the brains and powerhouse of the family.

I like her, Richard Coles, Danny and Oti.

Apart from the A levels, it has only been possible to the other stuff because of who she is married to. She’s not stupid, she stays with him despite adultery because of the fame and money.

I reckon Maura could win although I'd prefer Richard.
Can't get over how huge Oti has become. Hard to believe she was a lithe dancer.

Wow. Wow. Wow.

Mojack26 Wed 27-Nov-24 18:20:21

Never watched it, not remotelyinterested! Not my type of programme

Galaxy Wed 27-Nov-24 18:24:50

I try not to judge women who stay with men who commit adultery, it is more likely to be for the children than the money.

The series is not for me - It should not be in the main channels but pushed to ITV2 or similar.

Why? Its a very popular programne. I know some people don't like it, so don't watch need to watch. Let the rest if us enjoy it.

Iam64 Wed 27-Nov-24 18:58:01

I agree with you Galaxy. It’s also worth acknowledging CR could have done very well out of a divorce settlement. She was asked about this on the Wagatha documentary. She seemed genuine when she talked about having considered divorce but said in the end, there’s love between them and the children.
Her upbringing was apparently with stable, loving parents and that’s what she wants for her children

So why not have Wayne Rooney on the programme then? Oh wait, he doesn't need the publicity!
Re the 'sisterhood'- I like Jane and GK and Maura I just don't subscribe to the 'Colleen is great' mantra.

Wayne has saud he'd love to go on but hasnt been asked. No doubt he'll be there if he can get time off from the day job.

I think Wayne might want to catch the next flight out.
Plymouth Argyle lost 6 - 1 last night. 🙊

If you divorce and the father is a vaguely functioning human being you will not see your children for 50% of the time, I know lots of women who would do all sorts of things to avoid that situation.
