@bcacstuff You really do have a talent for finding these things. Thank you for digging that up. 👏

I’m really curious now. And honestly, I hope it’s something good for him, something proper. He could use that.

Are you working on chapter 3?

Yes.

A family man has to do what a family man has to do. Apparently that includes a little account clean-up, plus reposting, liking and new follows in the middle of the night.

I think he recorded his voice for the children's book when he filmed it in Germany because he doesn't have the black mark on his fingernail .

I don’t think the fingernail mark is absent in the video. To me, it’s still visible on the middle fingernail, just much less clearly.

That also makes sense: the hand is moving, the image is more pixelated because of the movement, and the lighting is different. A small mark like that can easily look paler under those conditions.

So no, I don’t think the fingernail mark rules out the voice recording being recent. And to me, it still seems quite plausible that the recording may have happened last week.

Sam‘s busy ……

And just to add to the confusing mess AlexN who rarely posts personal stuff has just made a post showing his dog as a puppy then an adult . It’s most likely unrelated to what she did at the weekend but you really have to wonder , it’s as well that SH has no pets 😂

Haha, at least this one appears to be the same dog. Standards are being restored. 😜

Dog lovers! Can anyone spot the differences between these dogs 🐕‍🦺 in the photos and video?

The video above was coincidentally posted on SH's Borders Book Festival event by SFB who habitually and deliberately exhibiting attention-seeking behaviour toward herself.

The puppy from her post already has their story.

17th October 2025. After a year, the dog still seems sad and more sensitive when its owner is gone. What a difference in behaviour in that house when the dog owner's widow is more interested in travelling alone from Ireland 🇮🇪 to Stratford-upon-Avon 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 or Sassenachia (as SH says) for some fun!

To now 🤔

13th June 2026

Well, maybe I’m wrong, but it is highly unusual when spots (either on the skin or in the coat) disappear suddenly within just a two-week window after two years of stability, and in this case, is not than normal aging or natural coat transitions.

The dog has changed so much in the last couple of weeks. Maybe it is not the same dog 🐕‍🦺; rather, the narrative pushes a second animal, prompting a reflection on her strange twists of life, or is it her personality? 🧐

Or perhaps it's an old video with Eoin's voice; the dog responds to its owner's command. Eoin had two dogs of the same breed? Her daughter, it seems to be present when she was little, since you can hear a toddler babbling (not a nine-year-old child). Or is it a video with a man's voice, with a little child trying to make us think it's Sam?

If she's trying to insinuate something, it's backfired—her video proves nothing! 🤷 But one thing definitely gives an impression: she’s off her trolley!

SH opened the door so that his fans follow a woman with a profound desire for validation; her self-worth relies entirely on being noticed and approved by others. Perhaps this action was a manifestation of his own personality or even his concern for mental health problems 😵‍💫

SH could easily put a stop to it, but he doesn't have the backbone. He is a man who compromises his own boundaries rather than acting assertively. With this signal, you cannot build a happy, positive life surrounded by someone who seeks attention in an unhealthy way🫡

A small addition to @maximumwobblerbanditdonut ’s observations.

The dog confusion alone is already quite something. At this point, it’s not even entirely clear which dog is meant to be which, what is old, what is current, and what exactly the “then and now” was supposed to prove.

But what makes it even stranger is her correction reflex that seems to follow. Once a certain reading starts forming around her public story, there seems to be a need to pull the narrative back into a safer emotional frame: animal lover, difficult decisions, no judgement, please understand the context.

The problem is that if the material used to support that softer narrative is itself confusing, it doesn’t really clarify much. It just makes the whole thing look even more (badly) managed.

This is exactly the kind of thing we’ve already talked about in the Mara & Leo chapters: the way she seems to use outer signs to explain who she is and where she belongs. A dog is not just a dog. A photo is not just a photo. A caption is not just a caption. These things become little pieces of a story she wants people to read in a certain way. And when people don’t read the story the way she wants them to, the next layer appears: clarification, emotional framing, soft correction.

In this case, though, the correction doesn’t make the story cleaner. It makes the construction more visible.

Sure he is showing when he’s alone but what about last week when he was barely on and posted nothing. Does that suggest immediately he was with her? That seems like what your reasoning is?

That isn’t really my reasoning, though. I’m not saying: “If he doesn’t post, he must be with her.” Silence is silence. We can’t build much from that.

What I’m looking at is what he actively chooses to show when he does post. And there’s a difference between simply posting while being alone and repeatedly showing details that make the aloneness very visible: eating alone, travelling alone, hotel context, 360-degree bike shots where nobody else appears to be there, and so on. That’s public positioning.

Of course we can never know every private detail. But what he chooses to show publicly doesn’t read like a settled couple. It reads much more like room to move.

And yes, in theory he could be privately doing the exact opposite off-camera. But at that point we’re no longer analysing what he shows. We’re inventing a second hidden version of the story to cancel out the visible one. And that’s where analysis stops and pure fiction starts.

There is no doubt that he didn't watch the game. I just saw that Steven Cree was awake and happy to share his excitement, yet he was very late in posting anything on his story. I understand that he may not be that into soccer, but when it comes to anything related to Scotland, he usually seems interested. What makes it even stranger is that he shared it in the afternoon rather than in the morning, which is when I would have expected him to post about it.

Maybe many people will disagree, but this is behavior we've seen from him before, especially when she was with him in the SUA. I also believe he is currently in Ireland. What do you think?

As for the football: I said this yesterday as well. I don’t think football is suddenly his great passion. I think he’s joining in because everyone else is, because Scotland is involved, and because it’s useful public-facing content right now. A bit of marketing, a bit of national excitement, a bit of “look, I’m part of this too”.

And to be fair, I wouldn’t blame him for not staying up until the early hours to watch the match live. The Scotland game was in the middle of the night UK time, at 2 am, so no, I don’t think that part is especially strange. People do sleep, even public figures. Occasionally. Apparently.

He was still in southern Scotland yesterday for the book event, and whether he went home afterwards or somewhere else, I simply don’t know. My own instinct is that he is probably in Scotland/the UK and working, even if not all of that work is visible to us. The Ride Galloway event is coming up, the distillery clearly needs attention, and I would also assume Alex will either be arriving or may already be in Scotland. Who knows who else is coming in for that weekend. So there may well be quite a bit to organise, manage or at least keep an eye on.

And with the financial side of that business being what it is, I doubt he can just float around pretending none of it exists.

What's your opinion on him trying so hard to show that he's alone, whenever he's alone?

Trying so hard to show that he’s alone is, in itself, quite interesting. And to me, it fits the same pattern we’ve seen from him for years.

Whether these signals are meant for the audience/fandom, for her, or simply for his own need to keep control of the narrative — we can’t know that for sure. But the visible result is the same: ambiguity, distance, room to move, and always a possible exit. That’s not new, that’s his usual operating system.

And from his side, that tells me something important. Whatever may be different about her as a person, the way he positions himself doesn’t look fundamentally different from how he has positioned himself with women before. At least not from what he is choosing to show publicly.

So if he’s trying to signal anything, consciously or not, it doesn’t read as: “This is the great love of my life.” It reads much more like: “I set the rules here! Don’t block my escape route.”

TBF everyone in Scotland is a football fan just now , as for the watch they have been gifted to the Scotland team down to nearly every Scottish influencer on SM . Must have cost the company a fortune at roughly £200 per watch , the cast attending the OL In Concert event all received one .

Fair is fair. I do understand the excitement. It’s a big moment for Scotland, and I’m not begrudging anyone that. These tournaments only come around every few years, and if people are happy and excited, good for them.

And honestly, I don’t begrudge him that either. He’s clearly trying to find his way through whatever this current phase is, and I’m sure that isn’t easy.

My point was more about the contrast with how he used to talk about football before. That shift is still noticeable. But it’s not a crime. It’s just… a shift.

So genuinely: good luck to Scotland tonight, and for the whole tournament. That part I mean sincerely. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿⚽️🏆

Did you see her last story about the dog? I bet nobody emailed her; she reads here. By the way, there are also free websites where you can view stories without the person knowing about that. Please share the information with others so they don't have to go directly to her account to check her stories.

And yes, I agree, I also find it rather difficult to believe that she suddenly received several emails about this one specific dog situation. But what else is she going to say? “I was just on Tumblr and noticed that people on a few blogs had picked apart my dog post”? Not quite the same ring to it, admittedly.

1. Another new disguise for the spiral tattoo, apparently. (Also, if I were him, I might start wondering why this is the kind of promotional gift I keep receiving.) 🌀

2. Oh look, all the Panini stickers. He hasn’t stuck them in yet.

Good luck, Scotland! ⚽️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Oh dear, new jewelry, a new bracelet!

Oh no, I can‘t …. why? 😢

For Sam, today is a workday at the Borders Book Festival.

#the heughan observer

Well, yes — but the real question is: when was that video taken?

Because the timing is interesting again. He has a book event today, and suddenly there is just enough of him in her story to get people talking. Subtle enough not to be a full statement, visible enough not to be nothing.

That doesn’t convince me of some deeply secure, intimate partnership. It just looks like another small marker placed at a useful moment.

I’ll post the video here simply so nobody has to run over to her IG and give her the traffic.

A quick note to the anon who sent me something in the last thirty minutes or so: That anon was actually useful. Genuinely. It touches on something I do think matters for Part III.

But (and I say this with love, patience and only a moderately raised eyebrow) please send the full information if you send something like that. If you refer to a specific person, please actually name the person, or at least give me enough context to know who you mean. Otherwise I can’t check it, place it, compare it, or use it properly. Half-context is better than no context, but full context is much more helpful. Facts, names, dates, screenshots, links where possible. The boring little details are where clean analysis lives.

Also, just generally: I do read my anons. All of them. That doesn’t mean I answer every single one publicly. Some aren’t useful, some go in circles, some are better handled indirectly, and some I simply keep in mind for later. Silence doesn’t always mean I ignored it.

And yes, before anyone asks: I have recovered from my tiny “fandom paperwork nervous breakdown”. I’m ready to continue. Who helped me get there will probably become clear soon enough.

But please, dear anons: if you’re bringing puzzle pieces to the table, bring the whole piece, not just one suspicious-looking corner.

I know, I probably sound like a tiny diva making everyone’s day more complicated. So be it. This does get a bit exhausting sometimes.
