I didnt see anyone mentioning it but i think eleanor making sure she is not with louis and the kid both on xmas and during kids birthday will be important in ending narrative-last time tabloids talked about custody it was because briana was angry at louis dating danielle and i belive they will just switch names and say briana didint let eleanor anywhere near F and louis wanted formal custody now (friendly reminder they dont have formal court approved custody now,it is their ticket for the end imo)
Yeah, I do think it’s on purpose too. She’s not posting anything she’s not supposed to post, so it definitely might be used in the narrative later on. Right now it looks like a really toxic situation: E purposefully shows herself away from her future step son during his first ever visit to UK, then openly shades the whole situation by posting a bunch of love letters to Cliff, even mentioning his age which is the same as F’s, after ignoring the kid’s birthday. It either looks like she’s the evil stepmom who’s mad at Louis for knocking B up during the break in their relationship and can’t accept his child, or like B isn’t letting her see the kid and Louis is fine with it. Both are shitty situations and no one looks good, including Louis.
I do think their initial plan was to go for the custody route, so let’s see how this plays out.
