She complains about not being able to afford anything from "Browns on South Molton Street", which is apparently a designer outlet, but ... according to their website, their prices are about on a par with the obscene amounts that she regularly claims to spend on clothes anyway. So why is this place prohibitively expensive all of a sudden, when she can somehow stump up the cash to spend the same money on the same clothes but from other shops?
I was under the impression that the ex-girlfriend was his daughter's mother (whereas he and "Diminutive Gong Li" just have the son) but if so, why would she be surprised at him sending their daughter a Christmas present? Isn't that what fathers usually do at Christmas?”

I think she refers to Browns as she's not welcome in some of the high end stores in London. Can't remember the name of one but it's opposite Harrods and she assassinated them in print for not giving her a cash refund on some J Brand jeans when she lost the receipt. Funnily enough I don't expect she's that welcome in Victoria Beckham etc either. She's has boasted before that she got a 30% discount in most London stores but that might be when she wrote about fashion as opposed to the great long whinge her articles are now.
