| Chappell Roan deserves space from fans – especially at breakfast |
|
|
Hello and welcome back to Lessons in Lifestyle… In a bizarre celebrity crossover nobody could have predicted, pop singer Chappell Roan was accused of sending over her security guard to tell off Jude Law's 11-year-old daughter (footballer Jorginho's step-daughter) for approaching her table at a hotel breakfast. After you get past the initial questions (Jude Law has a pre-teen daughter? And: What's the link between him and Jorginho?), the negative backlash directed at Roan shows that there is clearly a limit on how outspoken celebrities are allowed to be about their personal boundaries. While Roan has apologised for the incident and denied even noticing the child, Charlotte Cripps writes that Roan deserves the space that she asks for in an era where fan entitlement has reached peak pandemonium.

Elsewhere this week, I felt smug while reading Lydia Spencer-Elliott's piece about the death of small plates, since I am a fierce hater of the dining option, too. Nothing is worse than politely picking at a tiny helping of hispi cabbage between friends, and then trying not to wince when the bill comes to £45 per head (without drinks). And then to leave the restaurant with a rumbling stomach? It feels offensive. As the ever-wise Joey Tribbiani put it in Friends: "Joey doesn't share food." I couldn't agree more with Lydia's piece, which argues that diners' tastes are shifting once again. "We want to be full, and we have less money in the current climate to take risks," she writes. "Everywhere you turn, there's another restaurant with a sign in the same scrawling font serving biodynamic wine, roasted fennel, grilled tuna belly and roasted artichoke on industrial metal tables." Until next time! |

Should small plates be banned? |
As Lydia Spencer-Elliott writes this week, small plates are falling out of favour, due to the tiny portion sizes, high prices and the and the annoyingly trendy establishments that they're sold in.

Last week, we asked whether you had experienced "alpine divorce" – the new dating term that describes the physical abandonment of a significant other, intentionally or unintentionally, in the mountains. The results were striking: 50 per cent of you said you had fallen victim to this alarming trend. Yikes. |
