The Daily Mail
Has been fascinating recently. On a sad note is this story about Charlotte Wyatt, the severely ill and disabled baby whose parents fought a long battle to keep her alive against most medical advice. And indeed on Saturday it is her third birthday, but the parents have now split up (amid nasty recriminations), and don't visit that regularly - her mother only three times in nine months. The hospital believes, and I can easily see how this is true, that Charlotte would do far better out of hospital than in, and that cannot be with her natural parents, and thus are looking for foster parents. What amazing people it will be who agree to take on the responsibility.Less sad, but in its own way rather pitfiul, was the going-ons of the Goldsmith family. The story unfortunately isn't online, but this gives you a flavour. Basically Annabel Goldsmith had five children, two with her first husband and owner of Annabels, and three with James Goldsmith. There are two interwoven stories, the first is that control of the club has passed to the two children from the first marriage after their father has become too frail, and they have fallen out, and the second is that one (married) brother is sleeping with the other brother's wife's sister. All very silly, but infinitely preferable to plotting to overthrow the elected government like their father did. I'll keep you informed.
