Samantha Brick: Women should spy on their husbands

    The troll returns.

    EDIT: This is in relation to Jamie Oliver's missus saying she checks all his personal stuff to make sure he ain't up to no good.

    Source: Telegraph
    Telegraph wrote:
    Miss Brick said she regularly confronted her husband Pascal over numbers she didn't recognise or personal emails because she did not trust other women.
    The journalist, who faced public humiliation after claiming women were jealous of her beauty, said snooping on her partner "protected her marriage".

    Writing in the Daily Mail, she said: "For, as far as I'm concerned, my husband's emails, voicemails and texts aren't just his business — they're mine, too. I read, listen and check all of them daily. And I don't mind admitting that I open his post, too."

    She denied she and Jools Oliver were insecure housewives following an interview in which the wife of the TV chef said she checked his emails, Twitter account and phone.

    I'd be pretty livid if I found my GF checking all my stuff or demanding I answer to her about things like these like I'm her child. I'd imagine the same from her if I went snooping about her accounts and phone.

    Can a relationship have a stable future if this was an unwritten rule for a couple, having access to all of their private affairs to make sure they're not doing the dirt on you?

    In my case, we tell each other if our ex's get in contact with us because we usually get a chuckle at their not-so-subtle texts / emails of wanting to hook up again.

    So, does anyone check up on their partner's stuff and snoop around (beyond their knickers drawer, anyway...........or if you're one who likes to go through your man's jocks :pac:)

    Checking/snooping on your partner would have more got to do with your own insecurities than anything else.One must have trust in any solid relationship.


  • Registered Users Posts: 420 ✭✭Green Diesel


    Sounds like she judges everyone based on her own insecurities.

    Or she's just looking for more attention.

    Probably the latter.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,300 ✭✭✭freyners


    if she was the most beautiful women in the world then why would she need to be checking.

    feel sorry for her, she's either totally deluded or completely insecure


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,775 ✭✭✭✭kfallon


    If I was her husband I'd be checking her gee......with me foot!

    What a fooking clitbag! :rolleyes:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 68,317 ✭✭✭✭seamus


    Yet more evidence that this woman is unwell and in serious need of psychological help.

    The media should be ashamed of themselves for encouraging her.

    She's certainly deluded about her looks. I mean, she's not ugly, but she's a plain Jane with a face that you wouldn't look twice at.

    I usually try to reply in a somewhat sensical way but I got nothing this time.

    Samantha Brick is a dope. What's the point of a relationship without trust.

    you're probably the cheat if you're that insecure.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 904 ✭✭✭MetalDog


    Samantha Brick must be delighted that people have finally stopped hating her for being beautiful.

    Now they just hate her for being a cunt.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 81,220 ✭✭✭✭biko


    With such a "hottie" for a wife, who could ever want to look at other women :enormousrolleyes:

    She's making a fair few bob from it in any case.. typical media whore imo. I doubt she believes the stuff she says herself.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,205 ✭✭✭Bad Panda


    Had to google a picture of her....Christ!

    Talk about the epitome of average/decent enough looking!

    I mention this because the first result from google was her on the 'downside to looking pretty'.

    She's clearly mental and needs help. Being suspicious like that is unhealthy and no way to go through life.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 34,788 ✭✭✭✭krudler


    can this waste of space ever just fcuk off.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,602 ✭✭✭emzolita


    she was on This Morning a week ago saying 50 Shades of Grey was promoting abuse to women and that it is disgusting and derogatory to write a book about sex.
    she's a blatant troll, and the media are troll feeders!

    I agree....but I'd probably use someone else's foot. I would't touch it even as a dare.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,264 ✭✭✭✭jester77


    She's only seeking attention. Someone as beautiful as her would never have to worry about their husband playing away from home.

    Still a better love story than Twilight. :D


    As for Brick, the Celebrity big brother house beckons . . . .


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 936 ✭✭✭Fentdog84


    I think a little bit of snooping or jealousy is ok in a marriage/relationship. It lets the other person know you care and that your watching.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,775 ✭✭✭✭kfallon


    That doggy needs to be put down.

    Oh ffs now I'm singing, "How much is that doggy in the window?" to myself....thanks for that :mad:

    Hey the Poll is hidden. What's the story?

    On the subject, to be honest, I don't mind if my wife looks through my emails and stuff but she dosen't bother. All broing crap there :).
    But I agree it's totally wrong to spy on anybody if they decide to keep their stuff private.

    She's the most beautiful woman in the world. I won't hear a word against her.

    She's almost as beautiful as Kerry Katona - but she's not of this world, she's an angel so Samantha still retains her title.























    Wow, I think I've actually broken my sarcasm gland with this post!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,000 ✭✭✭mitosis


    I expect my stuff to be gone through, ergo I keep a hidden sim and a special email account for my shennanigans


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 1,536 ✭✭✭Stiffler2


    Samantha Who ?











    Oh did you see what I just did there ^^^^


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,034 ✭✭✭✭It wasn't me!


    Anyone decided that was an appropriate way to treat me is going out on their hole. I'm entitled to privacy, in a relationship or out of it, and my contacts with other people are not the business of my significant other, and the reverse applies too. I've never even been comfortable checking a text for someone else at their request, since it wasn't intended for me. If someone can't handle that, they're not fit to be in a relationship.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 453 ✭✭war_child


    I honestly didnt know who this woman was and had to google her ...sweet jesus what a troglodite ...even my pc tried to shut down so it didnt have to see her ....ive seen better back ends of a horse...

    And as far as checking your partners stuff to protect your marraige ..this girl has obviously taken full advantage of the fact its magic mushroom season and gotten jamie oliver to make them a nice cup of tea with it.

    Im an old fashioned bloke and believe strongly that trust is the foundation on which we build our relationships. Either that or giving ur woman a good seein 2 everyday usually helps them keep the faith.

    So if ya need me ill be in the bedroom with me missus reaffirming our trust ..

    Catch yez later :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,349 ✭✭✭✭super_furry


    A relationship without trust is a pretty ****ty thing. Wouldn't do it and would be very angry if my girlfriend were to do it.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,134 ✭✭✭✭ejmaztec


    My mother used to go through my dad's pockets, and all she ever found were wads of betting slips, leading her to the conclusion that the other woman was a bookie.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,678 ✭✭✭Crooked Jack


    Where is all this "she's ok/ average looking" stuff coming from. She looks like someone who just had a mild stroke. Buck.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,453 ✭✭✭Shenshen


    Sounds like she either married an absolute idiot, or should expect a divorce notice any day noe.

    I would never do that to my husband, and would be livid if I found him spying on me.

    CRINGE. Why would you go through your partners emails and texts etc ? , how could you even approach them if you found something! , very dishonest.. Samantha Brick is more to be pitied, too much confidence is unnatractive.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,716 ✭✭✭LittleBook


    "Men seem to have no idea about how pitifully easily they can be trapped by unscrupulous women hell bent on hooking any chap they fancy," wrote Miss Brick.

    She really has a low opinion of "men". :rolleyes:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,689 ✭✭✭Tombi!


    I can't be the only man thinking this: even I'd make a prettier woman in drag than this yoke.

    I'd say more people have checked their partner's phones than are letting on here...

    People in relationships cheat all the time (there have been enough threads on here affirming that fact), so anyone who trusts their partner 100% is being naive. That is not to say everyone cheats - most don't.

    However, searching around your partner's private stuff as a matter of course just reeks of insecurity. If you have serious doubts about your OH's fidelity, ask them out straight. Life's too short to spend your entire relationship trying to find dirt on your partner.


  • Posts: 0 CMod ✭✭✭✭ Harlee Fierce Sinus


    i've never checked a partner's phone unless i was in front of him going "HEY IM CHECKING SOMETHING ON YOUR PHONE NOW OKAY"


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,687 ✭✭✭blacklilly


    As previous poster have said, everyone is entitled to their privicy and if someone says they trust their partner 100% but don't trust other men/women well then they obviously don't trust their partner 100% after all.

    Ms. Brick is as thick as a brick but she also makes me feel incredibly sane in comparasion and make me wonder why the hell am I still single!

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,797 ✭✭✭✭hatrickpatrick


    I don't know what sort of draconian relationships ye have but I don't have the right to tell my girlfriend who she can be friends with, male or female, and she doesn't have the right to tell me who to be friends with either.

    If you have other evidence that there might be something going on that's different. If I saw my GF getting a text from a guy she didn't know I wouldn't question her about it at all, it's her life and her friends.

    This whole "who's she" crap people seem to think is acceptable is something I find deeply disturbing.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,797 ✭✭✭✭hatrickpatrick


    Also..... Why are people paying attention to Samantha Brick, don't you realize you're feeding a professional troll?
