@@jacquelinearcher1158 Also, even without staff, consider how much it costs to maintain a place like that. Its insanely old and enormous.

This generational wealth doesn't last forever. These families are far from few nowadays. I also came from a wealthy French family who were in bed with the French royal family. It doesn't mean a thing. His great grandchildren will eventually become commoners. When you're from the streets, back to the streets you'll eventually return. The accomplishments of your past generations has nothing to do with your own accomplishments. Welcome to the 21st century. The dude with the old estate, who is too lazy to pick up a paint brush, isn't intelligent enough to comprehend basic financing. If the property is worth sixty million he'd be able to reboot his life, as well as the lives of his children, selling that estate. Here's the truth, nobody wants to buy those money pits. He's stuck with it now. Think about being so lazy that you cannot even roll up your sleeves to replace that wallpaper. "Oh, but that's original wallpaper from back..."

The worst part? It’s not even that hard to maintain a huge amount of money if you already have it. It really isn’t. The fact that they have been on a “slippery slope” downwards since 1485 speaks VOLUMES about how bad they are at finances
@@wmd40 Francis Fulford in this video said that one of his ancestors lost a lot of money. Maybe it’s not the 1485 part exactly but yes this applies to his own personal family, which is why they had to appear on the country house rescue show in the first place
"It’s not even that hard to maintain a huge amount of money"! It is and it isn't. No idea how other Brit aristocracy is coping, but while traveling in India found a how members of their aristocracy (the Rajas and Maharajas) are coping after the government stripped them of "annual stipend" they got from the government; the stipends were introduced by the Brits over a century or two ago to keep them in line! In any case, these rajas could not afford the cost of upkeep, so they start joint-ventures with various hotel groups and no many of these palatial homes have become 5-star hotels that cost US$1000 or more PER NIGHT! Given the huge number of American tourists, these failing aristocrats could do something similar. BUT ... neither the father nor the son seems to be smart enough to pull that off ... unless of course such an opportunity is handed them on a silver platter by some corporate "butler"!
It's incredible how a man that can barely speak manages to consider himself so much "more" than anyone else. Relics of a bygone era, they should consider reforming their public image by supporting their local communities.

There's a joke I think of while watching this: "Of course all vampires are wealthy aristocrats - if you were alive for 300 years and couldn't figure it out you might as well just step out into the sun." This family has been in this position for 900 years with a family history people only play imagination to have and yet still doesn't have a suitable income in any way shape or form to keep a house that was gifted to them. You know these people watched Game of Thrones and thought "wow we are the Lannisters!" when at best they were the Tyrells and more likely the Freys.
I used to think the famous joke “The Aristocrats” was rather fantastically unkind to aristocrats, but I now believe that the joke is soundly rooted in reality.
True. While I am no fan of aristocracy, I also keep in mind that the media are always looking for a narrative, a click bait they can sell, stories that revolt people. I wonder how many aristocrats they interviewed, and how many hours of footage they recorded before they selectively choosing bits and pieces to cover, while we never get to see more normal aristocrats speak who don't embarrass themselves. The media don't just do this for people. They do this to entire countries and cultures.
I've met several German, Bohemian/Czech, Austrian and Italian aristocrats through some cultural co-operation projects, but I've not even once seen this kind of arrogance, ignorance and stupidity. Brits are obviously culturally different than continental Europe, but this is a truly "another level", almost like a mockery.
The label 'white trash' comes to mind but i reckon that would insult those born poor and have to struggle for survival to know any better. These lumps of bones & sticks simply come off as too brain dead that they are simply cartoonish. And i find them endlessly amusing. 😆😆
Just so you’re aware, this video is from 2009 - before we had a Tory government. The Tories would never have done something like this. They are in the same clubs, groups, and families as the aristocracy. And this ruling is also why the House of Lords is now more diverse than it used to be.
You do realize in the modern world... like in planet Earth... children has leave their parents house and make it on their own. I'm pretty sure that girl will be fine.
The father's language is no better and he looks seriously ill with his colour of skin. Looks like the liver isn't working properly. I would hope that the twins would have agreed between them to hang on to the property TOGETHER and are just playing with the journalist.

The father is like a character in a satire. I can't believe his accent, the snorts and the comments. Comments when knows he is being FILMED. Filty rich and filthy entertaining! 😂
I just read about Lord Fulford on Wikipedia. He failed at everything he ever did, so he decided to go into politics. Apparently, they didn't want him there either.
He managed not to get elected as a Tory councillor, even though this ward has always elected Tory councillors. Looks like he isn’t very popular with his “serfs”. Honestly, I at first thought it was a satire.

So your family took advantage of British colonialism to better itself at the expense of Australia's indigenous people and likely went on assisted passage, i.e., fare paid by the government of the day attract British families to emigrate to Australia to ensure it's Britishness.

Well, strictly speaking they are "upper class", but that doesn't mean that they are polite, well mannered, industrious or even have enough liquid assets to get by.
The big problem is that they don’t serve the same purpose as they used to. This guy’s ancestors fought for the country and were rewarded with land and titles. When was the last time this family served on the front line?
front lines. the nobles have not fought on the front line, since the late Renaissance. and haven't been any kind of use to the army since the Cardwell Reforms in 1870
In Sweden we had a count, who actually fought as late as in WWI, on the side of the Central Powers. Ironically he's only remembered today because he was a pipe smoker and had a pipe tobacco mixture named after him that still exists.
As a French (who loves English people) I laughed at « we’re genetically bred to hate the French »! These people are so funny,still living in the past with the same mentality. Move on! We’re not so bad!😂 I was also flabbergasted by the arrogance of the young boy who seems to be a good for nothing and proud of it.😂
As this was shot in 2009, i was interested to see whats happened to Arthur Fulford. Turns out he has become a reality TV personality. He appeared on Britons Big Brother but walked out after one day on the show because he felt "bullied"😂
The inheritance tax is 40%. So it will not be "The easiest 30 million he ever made". It will cost him 12 million pounds which they obviously do not have. His sister is the winner because she can marry an aristocrat, and he will pay his karma for pushing her off her bike. Jolly good show then!
They have ways around that like, putting the estate in trust with him as the trustee...once that is done using one of Britains off shore tax havens everything that happens from that point on 100% secretive. Look into "Britain's second Empire" and your mind will be blown!
The greatest loss is to have so much opportunity and to waste it. Money cannot buy back time a wasted life, it erodes no matter how much of the stuff you have. You are far better off to have to work hard and make something of yourself, than to have it handed to you on a plate and do nothing with it. This is a lesson to all the people who think money is everything.

This is wonderful! True aristocracy down to disrespectful and obnoxious children who care less about their mother and nothing for their sister. Yes! Let's keep them and watch them fade away.
From a financial point of view, these large houses seem unsustainable. They’re far too large for the families who live in them and require the income of a large agricultural estate to maintain them. Since Great Britain is no longer a feudal society where serfs are forced to work the land and turn their crops to the landlords, the house owners have to find other sources of income and it seems the only ones that have survived are the ones that have become tourist attractions, but even that is a dwindling source of income. Plus what else is there to do in the area? It seems like a rather boring and angst-ridden existence to me. Maybe that’s why they are so « eccentric. »
Keep in mind though that we only see the ones that haven't been able to pivot into making money via modern means. The ones who have are very very quiet about their incomes and property. Then there are the ones like the Royal family that claim they have next to no money or power in the country (or world) and are probably lying through their teeth about both.
The was an episode of How Clean is your House, where the family had a huge estate like this, but couldn't afford to maintain so they "lived" in only several rooms (the equivalent of a flat) while the rest of the house was filthy and abandoned.
@@miriamllamas224 that’s not surprising. I’ve watched some episodes of Downtown Abbey and I can appreciate the rooms we got to see of Highclere Castle the same way I can appreciate a visit to an art museum, but I am aware that they are a small fraction of the whole house, which was always far too big for the people who lived there. These houses were orgies of extravagance and I imagine only a few of them can survive with modern means of income.
One of the most striking aspects of this piece is that it reveals even the most aristocratic Brits are likely to end up with bad teeth. (The late Freddie Mercury once told a reporter who asked him why, with all of his money, he didn't have his teeth fixed. He replied, "Because I'm British, and I don't want to stand out".) 😂
I know this is a joke but the real reason Freddie didn’t get his teeth fixed; (he was born with 4 extra teeth in the back of his mouth) was bc he was worried getting them fixed would effect his singing voice haha. Fun fact
As a Brit, I can confirm I find no teeth more ugly than the big fake white house teeth so many Yanks (& sadly now here too) like to have implanted. Replacing a missing tooth with someone real looking I have no problem with, but those moulded lookeling completely straight bright white too big teeth make my stomach turn.
I don't imagine that there are many viewers who are not appalled by the nastiness of the one family that tells a mother to shut up, pushes a sister off her bike and smiles - and whose father thinks it acceptable to essentially disinherit all but the first born, and be arrogant as he shows off a crumbling and messy home. Not all wealthy people are this egotistical or ill mannered, but this one family takes the cake!
I think Arthur is going to be in for a very rude shock. He's not getting an easy 30 Million, with no strings attacked. His inheriting a House or rather a Castle, that is going to requite maintenence, which requires work & money. He is still very well off, but if he thinks his on easy street, he has got an awakening happening.
That sister not inheriting the house and title is honestly a blessing for her. It's going to be a massive headache for the brother when he inherites all of that. Fully renovating the house would probably cost more than what the house is worth and the taxes he's going to get slammed with instantly upon inheriting is going to bankrupt him likely. Even the upkeep of keeping it in a somewhat livable state is likely draining most of the owners resources every year.
Yes! If it were mine, I would fix it up and rent it out for conferences and retreats to pay for upkeep and property taxes. But the son doesn’t seem like he would be resourceful or hardworking enough to do anything like that.
I love how the wife tried to reframe what pompous mess her husband was saying in order to make us feel sorry for them. Claiming they aren't really privileged because they don't have staff.
I think she is embarrassed by his arrogance, and probably envisioned a happy and more graceful lifestyle when marrying aristocracy. Instead, he is self-absorbed, and she is likely serving him 24/7, while the world thinks she has maids and staff serving her. Having a boorish and uncaring son that follows her husband's behavior would be only more infuriating to her, if she has a bit of self-awareness and self-respect.

The smartest person in the room doesn’t walk in saying the words I’m the smartest guy in here. The funniest guy in the room room doesn’t walk in saying the words I’m the funniest man in here. Thats why the richest person in the room isn’t going to walk in announcing to everyone I’m the richest person in this room or I have so much more money than everyone.

This generational wealth doesn't last forever. These families are far from few nowadays. I also came from a wealthy French family who were in bed with the French royal family. It doesn't mean a thing. His great grandchildren will eventually become commoners. When you're from the streets, back to the streets you'll eventually return. The accomplishments of your past generations has nothing to do with your own accomplishments. Welcome to the 21st century. The dude with the old estate, who is too lazy to pick up a paint brush, isn't intelligent enough to comprehend basic financing. If the property is worth sixty million he'd be able to reboot his life, as well as the lives of his children, selling that estate. Here's the truth, nobody wants to buy those money pits. He's stuck with it now. Think about being so lazy that you cannot even roll up your sleeves to replace that wallpaper. "Oh, but that's original wallpaper from back..." Get bent! 😂 Whatever survival instinct his ancestor had has now been bred out of his bloodline. If he ever had to face the enemy on the frontline of battle the wind would blow him away. 😂

No idea how other Brit aristocracy is coping, but while traveling in India found a how members of their aristocracy (the Rajas and Maharajas) are coping after the government stripped them of "annual stipend" they got from the government; the stipends were introduced by the Brits over a century or two ago to keep them in line! In any case, these rajas could not afford the cost of upkeep, so they start joint-ventures with various hotel groups and no many of these palatial homes have become 5-star hotels that cost US$1000 or more PER NIGHT! Given the huge number of American tourists, these failing aristocrats could do something similar. BUT ... neither the father nor the son seems to be smart enough to pull that off ... unless of course such an opportunity is handed them on a silver platter by some corporate "butler"!

@@helencheung2537 yes along with many German, Greeks, Italians, Maltese, and many other nationalities, most of us only learned of the British invasion of Australia when we arrived here .I was 12 , and I'm disgusted by what my birth country did to the first nation people, what do you think I should do about it? Australia is far from being British today , so you're Britishness argument is lost . But before you throw any more stones, what is your nationality?
You must be a British aristocrat, interesting perspective
Knocking his grown sister to the ground. Money does not buy or breed a good brother.
Yeah it's really weird it's not like they can't share it
As an American, despite knowing the issues of our government and founders, there's nothing that makes me more thankful for our revolution than learning about English aristocracy
Yes.
For real, I know we have some serious problems, but f*** the old world politics and nobility. The idea that even vestiges of them remain today in England is absolutely baffling to me.
The USA has it's own aristocracy. It's just not as old as ours.
@@johnmunro4952 not exactly the same thing. the US has an elite class, which is much more fluid, families/people come and go all the time.
@@johnmunro4952USA is a Plutocracy but most people will swear they live in a democracy because they can vote, but who counts the votes?
Mindset keeps or looses wealth, whether it's old money or new. This is a clear example of that.
This is almost like an understated comedic mockumentary of the British aristocrats , but from 15 years ago (when Gordon Brown was PM)
The first guy must be Harry Enfield surely
I've never heard such arrogance, entitlement, and lack of humility in one family, parents to children, in all of my life, even in fiction, movies, or television depictions. I wouldn't trade my world for theirs any day.
But then you would be as arrogant, entitled, and lacking in humility as them. Is that really something to aspire to...?

Please HOMMIES, I've been looking into cryptocurrency investments, but I'm still unsure about the best and safest way to go about it. Any advice or insights you could share?
Talking to an expert like Maren Hilda Arthurs to reshape your portfolio is a very smart move.
I do see it that forex and crypto trading is one of the profitable money exchange services that elevates investors and their financial status.
@@RosieSmith-cn7mzwho's she please?
Maren Hilda Arthurs is a highly sought out advisor who I found on a CNBC interview where she was featured, she understands the job perfectly. I recommend her
So you know her too. I agree with you. I've seen amazing results since I started learning from the expert you just mentioned. She really knows how to break down complex strategies into simple steps. Definitely worth considering.
Watching this felt like I was watching The Office. As a Brit, I found the dry/oddness of this documentary utterly hilarious, I literally couldn’t stop laughing 🤣🤣🤣
You can be British but it doesn’t mean you have class
I think you mean ‘ You can have money and position but it doesn’t mean you have class’.
I've known Spanish, Italian, Indian, Asian, Russian, American, Polish... all of them have more class than the Brits. The Brits are rude, their relationships transactional and their work ethic appalling
Well, strictly speaking they are "upper class", but that doesn't mean that they are polite, well mannered, industrious or even have enough liquid assets to get by.
The big problem is that they don’t serve the same purpose as they used to. This guy’s ancestors fought for the country and were rewarded with land and titles. When was the last time this family served on the front line?
front lines. the nobles have not fought on the front line, since the late Renaissance. and haven't been any kind of use to the army since the Cardwell Reforms in 1870
@@crazydinosaur8945 Yes I agree, these were some of the families fighting before that time. They've been redundant ever since.
@@crazydinosaur8945Don't even serve on the factory line.
In Sweden we had a count, who actually fought as late as in WWI, on the side of the Central Powers. Ironically he's only remembered today because he was a pipe smoker and had a pipe tobacco mixture named after him that still exists.
His family were french norman. They are not anglo Saxons. We were him before him.
Sad they thought that reporter came to honor their beliefs about themselves, but this was an embarrassing mockery of them.
As a French (who loves English people) I laughed at « we’re genetically bred to hate the French »! These people are so funny,still living in the past with the same mentality. Move on! We’re not so bad!😂
I was also flabbergasted by the arrogance of the young boy who seems to be a good for nothing and proud of it.😂
They are scared of the French influencing their ppl because we all know what the French did with their pompous aristocrats. ❤

hi
As this was shot in 2009, i was interested to see whats happened to Arthur Fulford. Turns out he has become a reality TV personality. He appeared on Britons Big Brother but walked out after one day on the show because he felt "bullied"😂
Someone probably tore his necklace off
Maybe someone pulled his pants down. Abominable way of dressing!
Agreed I need a update 😊
Well he would certainly have understood bullying having attended a British public school.
Karma’s a bitch
People don’t even realize how hilarious they are. It’s like watching a real life cartoon.
Thurston Howell in real life, but slightly more rer0.
I love them, brilliant
The kid will have a big wake up call once he realises the cost to maintain it after his inheritance
How gross, especially that horrible young man of the Fulford family 😩
Like father like son. I feel sorry for the women in that family.
@@daniellelavertue2117 the women are talking to llamas because it's their only chance of a sensible conversation.
@@GlasPthalocyanine BRILLIANT comment!
That horrid boy couldn't even give a reason why old money is apparently better than new. I'm assuming he learnt that crap from his snorty dad.
Obnoxious parents raise obnoxious kids it's wonderful how they keep it in the family
The inheritance tax is 40%. So it will not be "The easiest 30 million he ever made". It will cost him 12 million pounds which they obviously do not have. His sister is the winner because she can marry an aristocrat, and he will pay his karma for pushing her off her bike. Jolly good show then!
They have ways around that like, putting the estate in trust with him as the trustee...once that is done using one of Britains off shore tax havens everything that happens from that point on 100% secretive.
Look into "Britain's second Empire" and your mind will be blown!
Yeah, I saw her. A multimillionaire can do better!
That boy needs a slap from his parents horrible spoilt brat
The greatest loss is to have so much opportunity and to waste it. Money cannot buy back time a wasted life, it erodes no matter how much of the stuff you have. You are far better off to have to work hard and make something of yourself, than to have it handed to you on a plate and do nothing with it. This is a lesson to all the people who think money is everything.
they put their property & assets in Trust = no inheritance tax. Look into this the commoners can do the same.
How do these people not have a reality show yet?
Every time I think the US is messed up the UK steps up and says “hold my beer”.
Say what you want about America but at least we don’t have an aristocracy…
Yea nah America is still the worst
@@whatafreakinusernameBut you do have celebrities, which are exponentially more decadent and still revered by the peasants obsessed with their private lives. Which is worse?
@@CanisLupusSteparium playing Devil’s advocate, you could say that at least those celebrities had to do *something* to acquire fame & money, these people were born into it
Peel my grapes!
My late father bless him always said that the aristocracy in Britain had no shame about the past. AGREED.
And why should they?
You absolutely cannot generalize like that.
@@Celisar1 What do you mean, "why should they?" The Brits should have LOTS of shame about the past, the way they trespassed into India and Africa and stole their lands and their culture, the slave trade, and the centuries of arrogance and superiority, shown by the people in this video, even the teenage boy.. Disgusting people.
I have no shame about the past, & I think people who do are ridiculous. In fact I'm proud of my country's great achievements.
@@user-vu7rv1xf1l So you are PROUD of how Britain trespassed into India and Africa, stole people's lands and started coffee plantations on land they stole from the natives? You are proud of the slave trade that Britain was part of? I know my country was part of the slave trade also, but I am not proud of it, but overall I think America is more important in the world for good things than Britain is.
A lot of humanity has trained themselves to only feel shame when it's useful. So, when we're surprised that not everyone feels shame equally, we're surprised because we never learned that mindset.
You can tell his wife hates him. Her facial expressions clearly tells it. She’s rethinking her whole life and asking why? The children? They too have her rethinking her decisions in life. Poor woman! Thinking…why me?😔 😞
She's prob sad she raised such tossers and has king baby for a husband.
Yep, she made a devil's bargain and is clearly regretting it.
She is the only one with class in that family, but without dad backing her up, she is raising feral children.
@natachaCB: Nah! Instead of taking some unprofitable office job she is able to afford and spend time with her "pure bred" camel, llama, boar, ...! She appears to nicely fit-in with the rest of the family she's done her bit to create!
@@AlexSantiago-b7hthe lady with animals is not related to the first family.
What a charming family. I am sure that not all of the aristocrats are so out of touch. I now know where the word baffoon originates from.
This is wonderful! True aristocracy down to disrespectful and obnoxious children who care less about their mother and nothing for their sister. Yes! Let's keep them and watch them fade away.
The first family had me thinking it will cut to Jeremy Kyle at any second.
From a financial point of view, these large houses seem unsustainable. They’re far too large for the families who live in them and require the income of a large agricultural estate to maintain them. Since Great Britain is no longer a feudal society where serfs are forced to work the land and turn their crops to the landlords, the house owners have to find other sources of income and it seems the only ones that have survived are the ones that have become tourist attractions, but even that is a dwindling source of income. Plus what else is there to do in the area? It seems like a rather boring and angst-ridden existence to me. Maybe that’s why they are so « eccentric. »
Keep in mind though that we only see the ones that haven't been able to pivot into making money via modern means. The ones who have are very very quiet about their incomes and property.
Then there are the ones like the Royal family that claim they have next to no money or power in the country (or world) and are probably lying through their teeth about both.
These houses are post-serfdom. But lots of people used to live in them in their heyday.
The was an episode of How Clean is your House, where the family had a huge estate like this, but couldn't afford to maintain so they "lived" in only several rooms (the equivalent of a flat) while the rest of the house was filthy and abandoned.
this problem was solved perfectly in Guy Ritchie "The Gentlemen"
@@miriamllamas224 that’s not surprising. I’ve watched some episodes of Downtown Abbey and I can appreciate the rooms we got to see of Highclere Castle the same way I can appreciate a visit to an art museum, but I am aware that they are a small fraction of the whole house, which was always far too big for the people who lived there. These houses were orgies of extravagance and I imagine only a few of them can survive with modern means of income.
One of the most striking aspects of this piece is that it reveals even the most aristocratic Brits are likely to end up with bad teeth. (The late Freddie Mercury once told a reporter who asked him why, with all of his money, he didn't have his teeth fixed. He replied, "Because I'm British, and I don't want to stand out".) 😂
I know this is a joke but the real reason Freddie didn’t get his teeth fixed; (he was born with 4 extra teeth in the back of his mouth) was bc he was worried getting them fixed would effect his singing voice haha.
Fun fact
the big book of british smiles
As a Brit, I can confirm I find no teeth more ugly than the big fake white house teeth so many Yanks (& sadly now here too) like to have implanted. Replacing a missing tooth with someone real looking I have no problem with, but those moulded lookeling completely straight bright white too big teeth make my stomach turn.
It’s true, Brits have horrible teeth, except Prince William. I’m sure he got his pearly whites from his Mother.
No fluoride in the water until recently. Makes all the difference.
Unearned privilege is one of the banes of modern society.
"i know them and theyre good, hardworking people" the reporters face was gold
"Theres only 93 of them!" Right and it only takes 6 billionares to soak up most the wealth so that logic only makes it seem worse
In a weird way I feel sorry for them like they're trying so hard to cling onto the past that it's defining their whole lives

Don't. It's a wasted emotion on these people.

@@fakeit6339 It's so normal to them I don't think they even realise they're being greedy
What about islam
I don't imagine that there are many viewers who are not appalled by the nastiness of the one family that tells a mother to shut up, pushes a sister off her bike and smiles - and whose father thinks it acceptable to essentially disinherit all but the first born, and be arrogant as he shows off a crumbling and messy home. Not all wealthy people are this egotistical or ill mannered, but this one family takes the cake!
The guy is a legend!
I’m not sure he has a choice about who inherits, but the other things he does. He is truly bizarre in my opinion & hilarious 😂
It is very common in my experience!
Never been more proud to be an American.
I think Arthur is going to be in for a very rude shock. He's not getting an easy 30 Million, with no strings attacked. His inheriting a House or rather a Castle, that is going to requite maintenence, which requires work & money.
He is still very well off, but if he thinks his on easy street, he has got an awakening happening.
That sister not inheriting the house and title is honestly a blessing for her. It's going to be a massive headache for the brother when he inherites all of that. Fully renovating the house would probably cost more than what the house is worth and the taxes he's going to get slammed with instantly upon inheriting is going to bankrupt him likely. Even the upkeep of keeping it in a somewhat livable state is likely draining most of the owners resources every year.
Yet the reality is likely that she would make it thrive, and he will simply fail. He made that pretty clear the first time he opened his mouth.
Hadn't thought about that and the daughter will likely marry in to money, she'll be fine.
Yes! If it were mine, I would fix it up and rent it out for conferences and retreats to pay for upkeep and property taxes. But the son doesn’t seem like he would be resourceful or hardworking enough to do anything like that.
They use trusts to avoid paying inheritance taxes.
@@tnijoo5109good thought! But I don’t think he’s interested..
I love how the wife tried to reframe what pompous mess her husband was saying in order to make us feel sorry for them. Claiming they aren't really privileged because they don't have staff.
And I truly think they actually could find some ppl to serve the "nobility" for very cheap 😂
And if their idiot son had "staff", he would be even worse.
I think she is embarrassed by his arrogance, and probably envisioned a happy and more graceful lifestyle when marrying aristocracy. Instead, he is self-absorbed, and she is likely serving him 24/7, while the world thinks she has maids and staff serving her. Having a boorish and uncaring son that follows her husband's behavior would be only more infuriating to her, if she has a bit of self-awareness and self-respect.
His humour not being ironic is what makes it hilarious
