This is what I have been wondering too. In a house of that size, they would need a full housekeeping staff, right? Would someone of Vanessa's social class normally have a lady's maid or was that very upper class British?

Just coming here to say the exact same thing! I am so sick of the princess brides and daddies' girls who have to obliterate their generous $5000 budget or whatever and add more BLING AND MORE POUF. They have to customized it because it it makes it so special! Yuck. Seriously, these women are going to be married and they can't stick to a wedding dress budget?

Holmes' whole escape was at least a two year ordeal. Her attorney father helped her plan her escape. She was able to quietly dismiss her Scientology staff, so Cruise did not realize she was leaving until she physically left.

They must have some serious dirt on Kidman, because she didn't really even fight for custody. I know Lainey gossip said Nicole is a distant mother anyway and she was really critical of Isabella's weight.

Yes, I am surprised they left out Shelly Miscavige. Will Smith has never publicly been a Scientologist. He just issued a statement saying he is "spritual" and interested in all faiths. J.Lo is also into Scientology just not publicly. I think if you are celebrity then Scientology is just a big self-help religion with Hollywood contacts. It's the no-names that are being abused and brainwashed.

I am surprised that a NYC prosecutor was not more blunt with Rosie and would say straight up, "Your parenting is going to be cross examined mercilessly,is that ok?" I can't believe Rosie goes on the stand and is shocked that her drinking/postpartum depression are brought up. The trial was almost levels of Kimmy Schmidt bad. Did Hugo get a psych eval that would discuss lasting trauma? It seems everyone just assumes he has lasting trauma because Rosie says so.

I have worked in two public schools and I think it varies depending on administration. I have tutored kids one-on-one after school with my door open and there were no issues. Though, I could totally see some principals being very strict with the "never be alone with a student" rule. It depends on the administration/ tone of the school district.

Sadly, I knew a "Hannah" type when I taught middle school. She have "tutoring" after school which would devolve into students just gossiping with her. She had a wall of "You're my favorite teacher" notes like a students puts notes up in their locker.

Well, I am thinking Adam was a "time filler" or something for Mimi-Rose. She didn't seem the least bit concerned when he walked out. The boundaries talk from the principal was cringe-worthy.

I know! I'm a teacher in the South, but I used to visit a lot of teaching message boards. There were some teachers in the Northeast who had been job searching for years. Like people saying, "I have been subbing for 5 years, will it ever happen for me?" So the fact that Hannah can walk into a school and get hired is over-the-top crazy.

So are Shoshana's parents supporting her indefinitely until she finds her "dream job?" I get she just graduated, but she seems really unconcerned about supporting herself. Is anyone working out of the 4 core girls at all? At least, Hannah is job searching.

It's pretty difficult to find teaching jobs in the Northeast for both public and private. I am wondering of Lena is modeling this school off of of her old private school in Brooklyn. St. Ann's is progressive so they might not have a problem with tattooed teachers. I am not sure what I think of Mimi-Rose. Is she suppose to be the opposite of Hannah in every way? Successful, confident, independent artist in the city?

Yes. I think this a cost-of-living difference between NYC and Atlanta. Also, Atlanta has younger brides from 18-25 ish, so they are more relying on their parents. A lot of the NYC brides seem to have been in the working world longer and have a bigger budget. Though NYC has it's fair share of "Daddy's girls" too.

I loved the use of "On Eagle's Wings" at the shiva! I went to Catholic school for all of K-8 and they would sing that song at least once a month at mass. Hysterical choice to hear in the background when discussing pegging.

I just found this show and it's amazing! Of course, Jeremy would be into something "different" for sex. This show feels more New York and is grittier than Girls.
