Loves her furry baby Riley. Totally addicted to tv programme Supernatural & keeping the memory of Natalie Wood alive.

Can’t wait for this. Premiere at the Sundance Film Festival on Monday, 27th January, 2020. Will be shown on tv in the US via HBO in May 2020. (Fingers crossed it also gets a U.K. showing, as we don’t have HBO over here). x

About time that Natalie Wood had her own magazine. Just bloody typical that it is released in the US on May 25th. Here’s hoping that I can find some way to get it in the U.K.? xx

My amazing photo ops from the official Creation Supernatural convention in Birmingham, UK, 4-6 May 2018. xx

A candid photo taken on Natalie’s 34th birthday in 1972. She looks so happy in this photo & it was taken just four days after she remarried Robert Wagner. x

To honour Natalie on the 36th anniversary of her untimely death, I have been watching the special edition dvd of “West Side Story”. These are screencaps of Natalie’s hair tests for the film. x

Adorable new family photos that Natasha shared whilst selling her “Natalie” fragrance gift set in HSN shopping channel last night in the US. We don’t have this channel in the UK, but I managed to watch her segment on catch up. There is nothing better than seeing new photos, especially candid ones with her children that we wouldn’t normally have seen. The gift set looks amazing, but unfortunately it isn’t available in the UK, due to custom regulations. One day I will have some more “Natalie” perfume. xx

Screen caps of a behind the scenes of a Raintree commercial from 1979. An adorable mother & daughter bond. So sweet.

Anyone who knows me well, knows that I am a huge Natalie Wood fan & I can finally share the amazing letter & goodies that I received from the publishers of the amazing book that came out in October last year “Natalie Wood: Reflections on a Legendary life”. I helped a little with the publicity in the UK & was blessed with a free signed copy of the book (by Natalie’s daughters Natasha & Courtney) and I thought that was the end of my involvement. Then I received this wonderful letter thanking me & extra memorabilia. The most astonishing part is having some of Natalie’s original stationary from her personal archives (which her daughter Natasha kindly agreed to share with me). To say I’m “Natalie’s biggest fan in the UK” was amazing - but to actually own something that was Natalie’s is even more fantastic. Feeling very happy right now. xx

I love finding new photos of Natalie & the one with the cigarette I hadn’t seen before. It reminded me of the photo with the hat & I had to put them together to see the similarity. I wonder if it was the same photo shoot - as she has the same hat, skirt & jewellery in both? xx

I love finding new photos of Natalie's daughters. I absolutely love this photo of Courtney. It's not the best quality & I don't know when it was taken - but I had to share it. If there are other rare photos of Courtney - I'd love it if other Natalie Wood fans would share them with me. xx

The greatest joy I have had this year is to have been in regular contact with Natalie's daughters, Natasha & Courtney via Instagram (both via public & private messages). I never in my wildest dreams ever thought that this would happen & to have been able to help with the publicity for the book and now help Natasha with a problem she had with international shipping of her "Natalie" products - is indescribable. These two wonderful ladies have taken the time to correspond with a fan of their Mothers and been utterly selfless by doing that & they didn't need to. I will be forever grateful to both of them.

New Natalie photos. Anyone know who the little girl is with Natalie & RJ? xx

New Natalie treasures that I’ve just found. Shame about the watermarks - but too good not to share. xx

Congratulations to Jensen & Danneel Ackles on the birth of their twins yesterday. Not sure on the names - but I'm sure JJ is gonna make an awesome big sister. xx

In all my years of collecting Natalie Wood memorabilia, it was always my ultimate goal to be able to communicate with her daughters Natasha & Courtney. It was easier to get Natasha’s autograph, with her being an actress - but Courtney was always more elusive, as she hadn’t chosen a career in the public spotlight (apart from her years as a jewellery designer for Wagner & Ko). I was so pleased when she finally started her Instagram account & allowed us access to her private world. The fact that both of Natalie’s daughters have liked photos of Natalie or my fur baby Riley that I post on my Instagram account (I can be found under @rileysmammyx). Even more special is when they take the time to private message you after you have posted something they have liked. I made these from messages I received yesterday from Courtney (the autographed message is from my “Natalie Wood: Reflections on a Legendary Life” book). xx

For Natalie - 35 years ago today. xx

I love these photos of Courtney. Most people say that she resembles her Dad more than her Mum - but I can totally see Natalie in her in these photos. xx
