If kids are in public social media posts, they should be entitled to all the compensation and protections of child actors. Whatever you have to do to hire a seven year old to be in a magazine ad you should have to do to post them on public social media.

What I think is crazy is that she did not monetize her instagram. She could have made six figures by promoting things and she didn't, she was just bragging about spending money she didn't have.

For everyone saying she didn't know - how could she not know that they were renting an apartment, renting furniture, etc.? Most influencer types expect their houses to be perfect, she for sure knew about all that. If she didn't, she's DUMB AS ROCKS and no man is going to marry her. She's 40? She's done. Maybe if she finds a foreigner, but she's Jewish so no Saudi is going to marry her.

There’s always Daddy’s money.

What sane man would want to marry this gold digger and be driven to suicide satisfying her demands?

I know of 2 local dads who committed suicide this year. Sadly not uncommon.

Rolling back inflated lifestyles and harnessing debt isn't easy. This mostly happens among entrepreneurs but many W2 people follow the suit. Keeping up with the Joneses has morphed into keeping up with the Kardashians.

The drone pic of their Hamptons house featuring the green pool full of algae is fitting for the article...

I was wondering why it was so clouded. That makes perfect sense - the first time you miss the monthly payment to the pool guy, he stops showing up. Gets gross very quickly. A pool guy is like $300/month....and they couldn't make that payment. So dumb.

Seems excessive and an abuse of the life insurance system, no?

Wouldn't surprise me at all if the wife encouraged it. I bet their marriage was toxic behind closed doors. The only people with the real story are the nannies.

I wonder if they had staff that was supposed to look after the pool, and they’re gone now. The landscapers are still coming. Those hedges look razor sharp!

I wonder if there’s staff left. At least a nanny? And how they get paid.

I can’t imagine Candice trying to make her own matcha lattes and tropical fruit plates on her own. What is she even eating?

Daddy isn't that rich.

I always wondered why someone in her situation felt the need to broadcast her entire over the top life, so not all that surprised that it was all a farce. Wonder how much she knew or if she was truly in the dark. Still feel awful for her either way.

She killed her husband. He literally died trying to keep her happy. She has to live with that. So do her children.

I could not care less about Candice Miller.But, it's time for you to check your internalized misogyny.

Where's the ignorant and idiotic poster who said the NYT would never publish an article on these two because,according to her, it will be 'beneath' them. I love when pretentious weirdos and their inflated self-importance come crashing down.

$800 facials and still managed to look like an unattractive waitress at a seedy diner off an interstate highway exit.

Happiness is being healthy in body and mind and living a life being honest and kind to yourself and those you love. Poor woman, so misguided and delusional. She lost her life partner, not to illness, but to suicide. She deprived her daughters of a father and a good life perspective for what, another dress? Another party? Another beautiful FAKE picture of herself? She may have been beautiful in the outside, but what about the inside? After my dear brother went bankrupt from providing a lifestyle for my sister in law that she had not worked hard for, she claimed she did not know they were in financial trouble. My ass she did not know! She chose to ignore all the signs and this woman probably did. This American fascination with the rich and famous has to end. It is ugly and very very sad!

I don't necessarily think wealth is the problem. It's what people are willing to do to acquire wealth that veers (often times) into these kind of situations.

What is her maiden name?

This is a sad situation but I think mostly we’re all interested because her social media persona seems like such an easy target. It makes us feel good about ourselves because it’s so vile.

I think that's always fascinating, yes! I didn't follow her but I've followed people who seemed "too good to be true", and then you feel validated when it turns out their life is a charade.

This one was more “too bad to be good,” I think? Maybe that’s what she was going for.

The weird part is she probably didn’t turn much of a profit if any. That’s the craziest part for me is when someone is exposes themselves and their family so much and doesn’t even get paid well for it. Privacy is worth a lot.
