    Another part of this whole free cruise bullshit that bothers me is that it is so close to Christmas. For some families who could potentially afford this after saving up, this would be their Christmas gift to their family. But this family is going to come home and still have Christmas with an obscene amount of gifts, both free and bought. She tried the whole Disney is the gift thing last year, and that ended up being a lie. Nothing about any of this is relatable even in the smallest amount no matter how hard she tries. She has to know how bad this makes her look, and that is probably why she sprinkled in the divorce talk yesterday. It’s her only relatable tool anymore and even that wasn’t a relatable experience to most people’s divorces. And seeing Renee and Jilly there just reconfirms that the most undeserving always seem to come out on top.

    I forgot to add that every day she does the advent giveaway with products she didn’t even have to buy herself. There comes a point with wealth that you should get really embarrassed by accepting free things.

      Sarah’s parents repurchased her house for her after the divorce. Her father originally paid her portion of the down payment when Sarah and her first husband bought their house at age 20. She chose the house $$ over going to university. Sarah complains about missing out on university but skips the part where she was financially set up. Sarah forgets that she bragged non-stop to her friends and extended family that she had the jump start in her 20s because she skipped post-secondary education. Sarah’s marriage was hunky-dory until the kids were old enough that she stopped getting attention. When the attention shifted to her sister’s newer family Sarah started losing weight and cheating.

        I gues her parents drew the line at getting their Princess her own ride. Her sob story includes only having one vehicle so she and the kids were trapped at home! She couldn’t possibly walk places or take transit or drive her husband to work and pick him up. She was just stuck! It’s interesting to find out her parents gave her the downpayment. She’s never wanted for anything in her entire life.

      👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

      Well said. Nothing like rubbing in a free cruise two weeks before Xmas while a lot of parents are probably scrabbling to provide a nice Christmas for their families. And while she’s at it, she’s going to make it seem like it’s something affordable even though she didn’t dip into her wallet the entire time. And no I don’t believe she realizes how bad this makes her look! She doesn’t care, she’ll just be all “oh I’m so grateful to be given this opportunity as media”.

      And her advent thing makes me so mad because like you said, she isn’t paying for any of the gifts she’s giving away! She never does anything from the goodness of her heart and that isn’t gifted.
