I suspect if Chan cannot win round his family in the longer term it will be a major problem cos I do think they are very close. I posted previously I think the acid test for me is Chanelle meeting his family formally especially his mum.”
There does seem to be a low buzz of hostile words toward Chanelle flying around randomly here and there within the Ziggy circle, and I'm including unnamed close friends quoted in the press as saying that Ziggy is just tolerating Chanelle for the time being for the money/publicity, VF, James Elder's & Natasha Clancy's unpleasant exchange of messages, and possibly Zoe, going by her statements on BBLB August 13 ("It's not the first time I've been in this situation with Ziggy," and so on.) What we're seeing is undoubtedly a fraction of what is really going on, as far as friends and family warning him off Chanelle. It's like the BBH all over again.
Most telling of all IMO is that Chanelle and Ziggy have been an item since early June, it is now almost October, and it seems she has still never met his mother. This seems very, very strange to me.
