I do too. She grew up in a normal family in West Virginia and is college educated. I find her refreshing.

Glad I'm not the only that thinks she's annoying and fake. And with that said, I still think she's a fairly nice person and a great mom.

+100
I think she is all of these things and that it’s not contradictory to think so

This is about as "Real" as I've ever seen her. I can only imagine the sh!t he pulled to make her mask slip in public.

He's a big alchie. Very highly dysfunctional. My FIL was an alcoholic and they will lie, cheat and break promises over and over. They also are incredibly narcissistic and selfish. I can't imagine trying to keep normalcy for her children and shield them from all of his f-ups. She's been trying to protect them and help him. They alienate everyone eventually and leave generations of damage in their wake.

Agreed. If you don’t get angry at alcoholics, then you aren’t human.

I don't follow her or have any dog in this fight, but I live in her neighborhood (Pacific Palisades) and therefore over the years, have been exposed to non-media-generated/reported situations regarding her. For instance, how the photographers hound her. On the day before Thanksgiving (or maybe Thanksgiving; I can't remember) I was walking with a friend who is all into this stuff. We walked through some paparazzi who were waiting for her to come/go from her church. My friend said she has to space the kids out (kids go in alone) so the paparazzi can't get a family shot.

She is always trying to just be a normal mom. The general consensus of this town seems to be (imo, from someone who gets this sort of from osmosis) is people like her and think she's nice, and tries to give her kids as normal as a life as possible given the situation. This particular town is pretty "Mayberry" (community-oriented) vs Bel Air or other places where she could be holed away in a mansion behind a hedge somewhere. It's a town full of famous industry folks who are unrecognizable (e.g. songwriters); recognizable folks opt to live elsewhere because it's too "open." I think people in this town feel a little protective of her, given that she's always been nice and involved as a mom, and has had it rough--and remember, the kids have had it rough, too, and local kids are friends with her kids, so people around here have a different connection with her.

I know someone who worked for her. They said she was very hands on as a mom and a nice employer

Our society keeps having such a high tolerance level for mediocrity so much so that somehow being a 'hands on mom', 'nice mom' or any other attribute that makes a parent a parent are lauded in a way that will have you think the individual is Harriet Tubman and not some woman with bland and forgettable looks that gets paid more than the average human will ever see in their lifetime to pretend to be someone she isn't on tv. God helps us all.

I can vouch for this.

All alcoholics are not the same. My husband is 6 years sober. He’s a good person and good father. I’ve also met several of the people who attend his meetings, and they are kind people with families. I do realize active alcoholics/addicts can be horrible and destroy lives, but please do not lump all together/write them all off.

I think Ben is just an asshole to begin with, and drinking probably just made that worse.
