Stephanie, Amaury and Amaury's younger brother grew up at one of the family nursing homes. Stephanie's parents & family renovated two victorian homes, one after another, not at the same time. Stephanie said Amaury is like another brother like Gerry. The two families supported each other's careers and enjoyed raising the kids together. Stephanie and her aunt learned textile restoration together for furniture and curtains for example.

Amaury has done such an amazing job in the Grande salon. LaLande is in good hands with him. He and Dan crack me up with their Movember shave. Dan’s homeless story was epic and hysterical. I agree it was very kind for that woman to offer assistance but he does have a point about not assuming. Good luck with the architect and hopefully something can be worked out. Wishing Nati and Amaury a fun and wonderful trip. Thanks for sharing 😍😘

Have you thought about donating to a new charity for Cadeu at the Chateau? Legacy of the Legends. It's for the Moon family who rescue retired horses who are being sold to the meat markets. They home, feed, take care of their medical needs. Sadie Penthrick, Michaels sister has taken one of their rescues...Udea and is keeping her at their chateau. Please consider, I know you normally dedicate the Dec, Jan, Feb monies to the design school in Africa. So possibly for March?

What a happy crowd! Your mummy is such a character and adorable too, Antoine such a sweet youngster and everyone else working so hard reaping great yeilds/results for everyone to enjoy! You clearly come from a family full of big personalities with sunny dispositions, so it's no surprize you are who you are Stephanie, and bring out the same in all your household, friends and family. It's lovely to see all the creativity and talent blooming, and I think alot of it's down to the freedom of being who you are, in a positive environment with common goals. It reminds me of my young years mid 80s living in a fin du siecle villa/mansion abandoned in for decades we fixed up best we could, just a group of artistic friends. We had a professional recording studio, garage, 4 stories, copper roof and a turret with a balcony, art studio, everyone had their own room (couples had a suite) and we never locked our door. Between 6-8 youngsters, mostly in music and theatre and art, it was a great time. We were all very young figuring out who we were, but I recognize the atmosphere that encourages, creativity and togetherness without being intrusive on freedom and individuality (or expenctant of bougie conformity which we all needed to break free from). When you're very young these things are temporary projects. It's nice to see adults being able to live in such circumstances and what can really come from it; the Chateau is transforming fantastically and you all seem to be thriving living your best lives! ❤️😊👌
