    I adore Philp and the main sterling quality I recognize in him is his soft, kind & loving heart. He is a throwback to olden times when men were gentlemen; when men were chivalrous; when men possessed lovely manners. All these qualities, Philip does possess. He knows more about things than some 60 or 70 year old men.
    So, let us forget about age and gauge our experiences on what the heart feels.
    You, Stephanie, are a fairy creature anyway, carrying yourself with a refreshing childlike wonder at the magic you see around every corner and everything your eyes alight.
    Yes, you two capture the love you have, born of each others inner light, shared interests, joy & kindness.
    Thank you for sharing this. Now you can be even more relaxed and natural in your Fairyland existence.
    The universe has chosen to shower your world with abundance and your light attracts one lovely soul after the next.
    It is all good, all a Blessing, all truly Magical!

      One question I'd like to ask Stephanie (even though this vid is a year old) is about her families relationship with Gerald.
      How on earth does he keep his strong Scottish accent?
      It's one thing that channel 4 have him wearing tartan for filming and him getting 'into character' when ch4 are there but I've heard him talking in his strong accent in the background of things filmed on "Lalande Cam"
      From what I can gather is that Gerry's mum worked for Stephanie's parents at the nursing home and that Gerry lived there with his mother and has been rather like an older brother to Stephanie.
      So, I've done a little bit of research and found that Gerry lives/runs a taxi company from the village where Ed Sheeran owns quite a few properties so I don't know how Scotland comes into his life.
      I came here from Chateau DIY so have only ever known of Philip as Stephanie's boyfriend. He is a wonderful soul.

      She had to have courage because she said she was scared. She was hesitant to share this in an unfortunately judging world. Imagine how being so open and vulnerable must feel when she’s speaking to a camera and a ring light not knowing until posted what comments she will receive. She care because she’s invested so much of her life in building this channel and relationships with so many of her subscribers and patrons whom she also cares a great deal about. Now she has complete confirmation and validation that she made a great choice to share her life more openly with those whose lives she touches so deeply. And we are so happy for her and for Philip to finally be able to be free, real and unscripted in their interactions, with us.
