She’s cheating on Dorinda, so, implicitly, that's who she married.

Snap, it was pretty much all I did yesterday. The casting of both the Anne and the Charles is amaaaazing.

I simply can't go another day without a needlepoint cushion that says "It's not easy being a princess" darling, I can't and I won't. 

This would make sense if The Crown was a scathing hatchet job on the Royal family, but it isn't.

He does these ads for cheap sofas in the UK (I’m assuming you haven’t seen said ad, apologies if you have) and they are somehow really unsettling/bleak and never fail to remind me of that suicide attempt. This is probably not what Sofology* had in mind.

At 8 I daydreamed about going to live with George Michael (in the set of the video for A Different Corner) and my dad said I was barking up the wrong tree.

I strongly believe you to be both 1. a sweetheart and b. a bloody marvel, Joan Summers. Do what you want.

Same. It’s been a thing my entire life. I’m 42 now but moved around England a fair amount when I was a kid and it was celebrated everywhere we lived.. it’s the supermarket aisles full of flammable tat that’s relatively new.

From what I've heard about her school days this seems about right. 

When I was about 22 one of my close friends, T, completed suicide. His housemate found him. None of us knew what he’d been going through. He was the life and soul. It was hard.

Oh, tears.

Absolutely good for him, god. Meghan is wonderful. I don’t know anyone that dislikes either of them, or doesn’t find them utterly charming.

Oh, they hate that a woman married a prince. That she’s biracial is just the cherry on top.

Oh, I get that. And yeah Demi does accept that she needed a wake up call, if only because she, at that time, thought that she could drink in moderation and not work through her considerable trauma.

This is funny because you just totally projected your shit onto a story you haven’t read, and about which you weren’t objective.

“I feel uncomfortable with Joan’s comment that Ashton’s (alleged?) cheating caused Demi to relapse.”

But she didnt relapse over and over. He did, some time after they got married, tell her that he didnt think that alcoholism was a thing, and encouraged her to try to drink in moderation. He would then photograph her when they partied with friends and then used those images to shame her.

I’m maybe halfway through the audio book. I like her more now. Her childhood was awful. She comes across as impressively self aware, and there’s a refreshing lack of defensiveness/willingness to trash people, despite what is being written.

Thank you.

Yeah, because no one is ever rich *and* vulnerable, or a famous actress *with* low self esteem, right?
