Stephanie's attitude to life is perfect - she's always positive and retains that bubbling joy of life that we all have as children. I def need to be more like Stephanie. Never seen her negative nor Michael..and when things aren't perfect she laughs it off with a wink and moves on. Fantastic!

I would also remind people that no one is perfect, and I think Stephanie would be the first person to remind us that what we see is an edited view into a few minutes of a day. It would make no sense to show us her times when she is in a sour mood, or anyone else, all though she did show her Mother being very cross that one time she got the pick up time wrong and she was an hour late picking her and Gerry up at the airport, her Mom was pretty cross the next morning, and she did show that, but she did try to get a laugh out of her Mum and laugh it off... but her Mom was indeed pretty unhappy. I only say this because it doesn't do anyone good to think that people live lives that are not touched by sadness, greif, anger and all the other real emotions we all deal with in life. I love tuning in weekly because I know for the most part what I'm going to get, which is a video filled with laughter, love and kindness. It's like if you turn on the Kardashians - if you've followed them you know what you're getting into. Gossip, profanity, partial nudity, grotesque displays of wealth and more family infighting that one could possible imagine, but, it's what they are known for. Who knows, all that could be an act, but somehow I doubt it.

Well -- how lucky can a man get ...a beautiful wife & a gorgeous pal , Stephanie...... well done , Ollie!

It’s funny about the family growing lemons with such success, I follow a Swedish woman who lives in rural China with her husband, son and in laws on their farm. Every year she tries to return to Sweden to enjoy the things from her childhood that made summer so special, spending time at the lake, playing and listening to violins to name a couple things . This year she can’t go because of the virus and was really missing raspberry treats as none grow where she lives. She discovered a woman who ,when she moved to rural China ,wanted to start a business and decided to grow raspberries one reason because they didn’t need chemicals to grow and the rather rocky soil was ideal to grow them. It’s become a big success because it’s a sought after flavour in restaurants, bakeries, and even in wine making. They have kept a section for u -picking so she got to go pick, make her favourite recipes and introduce her Chinese family to a little of her childhood joys. The raspberry farm needs lots of bees so the sell lots of honey and other products , flavoured with raspberry, even a little wine. They chose a perfect crop to grow, the berry that grows in ditches in many parts of the world . 🥰🙋🏼

Let me first say that Oliver is a handsome man. You know that every time Oliver walked past a group of Italian men with Claire, Stephanie and his daughters, they were doing the Italian equivalent of a High-Five!

This is by FAR my favorite Chateau Diaries yet!! I enjoyed meeting Olli's wife (sh's super beautiful), and his children (also, super adorable), and you got me so excited for your new Vlog series

When my darling husband and I visited Lake Garda for the first time we were astounded by its beauty as we drove around it looking for a pretty, affordable, restaurant, thinking we were on the trip of our life time and never dreaming that such an elevated level as Stephanie just enjoyed, could exist. Most pleasurable vlog, seeing Lake Garda on another level of beauty and historic excess. Loved every minute, except at dinner in the exquisite dining room with the oh so perfectly, beautiful food, Ollie looked like he came from the golf course and threw a sports jacket over his rumpled golf shirt collar; I would have "killed" my husband for such a breach of conduct. Mary Ann Recht.

Olivers suit?? grey jacket and top, gorgeous, he looked stunning, as did you two ladies.

Again a vlog full of fun, and informative. Olivers family are so gorgeous. Stephanie loved you little black dress, stunning. 🍽🍷🥂👗🍾🍕🍔🍨💖💋

That was so fun! Oliver and Camilla are wonderful travel companions.

Stunning view of Lake Garda!😍 It was lovely to see Oliver's family! I am excited to watch your channel collaboration with Oliver!😊

Ollies family is lovely....Camilla is stunning. So nice to see them. What a gorgeous place too.

Stephanie’s enthusiastic and informed descriptions, so aware of beautiful details, and her joyous comments add so much to every part of every vlog. So fun to watch you all having fun! The dual bows at the end were adorable!

A pleasure from beginning to end,,,,looking forward to your new channel Stephanie!

Wonderful to meet Oliver's gorgeous family! I love Selmar's idea of driving Stephanie so she can work on the road. Also dear Mummy with her picnic for Steph and all her love.

Loved this vlog and "meeting" Oliver's beautiful family. Looking forward to your new channel. Both of you are a joy to watch and Oliver reminds me of Carey Grant... handsome, intelligent and cultured. Thank you Stephanie for introducing a new destination to add to my long list of places to visit.

I’m glad I watched on a big screen. Thank you guys. So enjoyable.

A wonderful trip. Very much looking forward to the new episodes. Special awards to the two young misses for being so beautifully behaved. A credit to their parents.

What an offer from Selmar.....awesome.

When I think of Italy, I think of passion for literally *everything.* It inspires a bit of fear, a bit of excitement and romance. I might have known, Camilla is absolutely gorgeous.

On what fun! I can't wait for this channel! We love Oliver so much. You two are well suited for this endeavor. How can it not be great fun? Oliver has a lovely family. Such a great to see this preview. Thanks!!!

Nice people, very nice people are giving 20,000 dollars/euros a month for the remodel of the Chateau. Allot of volunteers are working very hard to accomplish that goal. Are you Stephanie? Are the final curtains done for the dining room? What about curtains for the spa? Why are the hallways full of bags? Closest we’re not a thing in the 16th century. So what space has been dedicated to storage? This is your dream don’t lose focus!
