Cute couple and gosh, she has a lot of American energy and he calms it with British calm and patience. Glad this is available. Nice to know what is experienced in other places and moments.
Absolutely! Looking forward to gardening with the Countess as well. The Earl has been a star as well. It must be that brilliant fusion of American and British bloods.
Over the years of being something of an Anglophile, I've noticed that British English speakers like Luke have a rather smooth and melodic flow to their voices that we American's don't. Our speech is flatter and harder sounding.
Dear Tee, Its just natural that you start to speak like the people around you if you live there and interact every day. Truly, its not fake, you just pick it up naturally. And its delightful to be able to blend in. Who wants to go thru life with a big, loudmouth American label stuck on their chest? No thanks! You don't sing the same song all the time do you? Play with language! It's delightful, fun, and skillful and makes people feel more comfortable with you. Besides that, it makes your mouth feel fun, too! You should have heard me after two years in England! Eight in India! etc. We are all chameleons!
Except that she pronounces "be-you-tea-ful" like a Brit. It's the one word that tends to stick out as British in her more American speech patterns. We love the entire series.
Yes, she is. No need to go beyond that, but.... more Julie & Luke. Less Harry & Meghan, please and thanks. I’ve been an Anglophile since my grandmother introduced me to our British/Welsh heritage and I studied English with a minor in British history at University. It thrills me that America is represented so respectfully by Julie. 🇺🇸 🇬🇧❤️
@Julie Montagu- I mean...This is amazing! You’re such the powerhouse and how adorable to have your handsome husband tell you what are great job you’re done. And yes, we also think likewise. I am so excited!
I've already subscribed to Mapperton Live. I am so excited. I am an American (San Francisco) lady who has loved, researched, read British history for over 25 years. I am probably the only American who can actually name the monarchs from 1066. Seriously, that is either love or the beginnings of OCD. Love the channel. And I love the Earl and Countess of Sandwich and of course I had read all about the 4th from extensive reading of the 18th century. What a team you have! I can't wait for more.
Julie - I ❤ this announcement from you and Luke! This is exciting and what I've hoped for from your YT channel. I've truly enjoyed the vids w your in-laws. Such a wealth of history! I look forward to watching more videos from you w your 👪 family (hope to see all 4 kids as well, if they are not too shy 😉) You & Luke are prime examples of how to keep an "aristo" family & house alive in the 21st cent. Much love from Peoria, IL - Eric P.s. I plan to visit as soon as we can travel again!
So excited about the changes and looking forward to Luke being in front of the camera. Loving the changes. When we fly over with our bicycles to do some bike packing your glamping will be an amazing stay.
When I spend time at my friends cabin near Trapper Creek, AK, we have a beaver family that has taken over the drainage of September Lake. It is fun to watch them build their dam and maintain it.
Aloha from Kauai, Hawaii. We love following your videos and happy Luke is more involved, as we enjoy him so much as much as his parents. The kids are so cool to watch them from episodes, good job parents! Will follow your family anywhere we can watch you all. ❤🌺
What great stewards you are becoming!! It’s a pleasure to get to view these adventures of yours!!! It’s great that you’re so honest & willing to share so much!! Thanks!!
You guys are killing it! Half the time I am laughing so hard because you are all so wonderful. Oh and when I heard the Countess call a man a "guy" or "this guy". It just sounded so funny because not to long ago you would have never heard a countess call someone "a guy". You are all precious.
What a lovely couple, really appreciate the content, look forward. Great your husband values your imput your wonderful and inspiring, so enjoy your enthusiasm. My favourite episode was the pool I was awakened, and that garden, your home is extraordinary. The kitchen the fireplaces, the landscape is breathtaking , please tell us your love story, your so interesting, thank you Beavers ooooh, are there Badgers, and Otters? Your visit to that beach, was exciting with the best fish in England, I was enjoy feeling British again, the aga cooking classes, the tours, their great your family love the eccentric character, its such fun.
Best of luck with the new show Matterton live love Julie but looking forward to all the family getting involved. Love Julie interacting with her parents in law. Best of luck.
You are fun together! On a purely shallow basis, love Luke’s great hair and Julie’s amazing eyes. Also love your plans to expand your farm with new livestock. Beavers! Who knew? Thought they were unique to North America
American aristocrat is massively successful here congratulations you made the programe. Well done julie Britain is begging for more programmes like yours. Mapperton series is what we want to see too congratulations .take care xxx
Good stuff - turnaround is coming - and keep at it! Thanks fir your uplifting, funny, heartwarming and I engaging show. A Brit Australian watching from Melbourne 🇦🇺🥰🇬🇧
Darling optimistic walking bubbling shining Star... You're unique, and we applaud you. I applaud you. Very brave. Let's hope people will draw around you, resonating with your effervescence. You are a gem. Glad you have a loving little Family to nurture and see through. May you thrive. May your viewership define, supporters rally. Love it. Allow the farm to restore. Reseed naturally. Restore Nature.
All these ideas sound wonderful. I hope that all your endeavors are successful and bring prosperity to your estate which will allow us to enjoy life and home
Hehehe. My BF is British and I'm American, and I talk kind of like her and don't get to the point quickly enough for him. I can sense his anxiousness. I see it in my boyfriend. Hehehe. She mentioned during her interview with Megan Kelly one of the surprising things she learned was holding the fork with the left hand and knife on the right. Believe me that is not an aristocracy thing. I think that is an overall British thing influenced by the Aristocracy perhaps because my boyfriend had to teach me how to eat like that. And he is not of the aristocracy.
Can't wait for the Nestor & Steve Lanin episodes! I love their instagram photos & can't wait to find out more about the nature & gardens surrounding Mapperton!
Looking forward to touring your area and how your estate and farms are run. Would love to see your Countryside via you tube! Due to Covid we won’t be traveling anytime soon unfortunately. Thank you for sharing life in your area.
I am really looking forward to your new direction! Thank you so much, and it is lovely that your family will be involved as well. Take care and be safe. Cheers from Canada!
Yes,she is making America proud!! Taking on all of this history and responsibility that comes along with Mapperton and their titles. Beautifully done!!🌹
@@AmericanViscountess you are very welcome!! I just told my mother and sister about your RU-vid channel and they are going to watch it also! I know they’re going to love it!
Hello! So nice to meet Luke and some of your family and what a BIG change coming to your lives! It seems like a monumentus undertaking! Very excited for us all! Plz don't burn out! Looking forward to every aspect of your new undertaking! Mapperton Live will be so exciting!
I’m so excited for your family for us the viewers wow! That’s exciting! Looking forward to seeing more family members joining the new RU-vid filming. Brilliant!
Had to look again i thot this photo of u2 was of earlier days u both look like teenagers, ur still so young, very lovely couple 👏🏼 good luck w all u make U.S. proud 👏🏼🍀
I really appreciate how you explain all your terms. It shows what a natural teacher you are (Martha Stewart is the same way). Rather than keeping things mysterious and complicated, you make things open, simple, and clear. How nice. Thank you!
Y'all are just precious..great going back To nature on the grand estate..Nestor is a blessing...cant wait to See all...y'all go♡God bless..from alabama.
I’am very exited for the garden episodes, spiders not so much. Sorry Nestor🤗 Bavaria also brought the Beavers back but there are lot of difficulties with them now...
Julie, you are so likeable. I think it's your natural beauty and humility. Luke is quite charming. You guys make a good couple. Best wishes going forward.
I hope that whoever picks you guys up,we here in Canada can watch. Newfoundland was a part of Britain till 1949 and we are still very much in love with Britain. Fingers crossed.
My favourite for nettles was inspired by Saag Aloo. No spinach or potato!! I use nettles and sweet potato. It is a spiced sweet potato and nettle fried pattie. The nettles are one of the first plants to produce new leaves in the spring. And as a fertiliser in the kitchen garden. Do you have a kitchen garden? I would like to see more of that.
I've recently discovered you. I'll enjoy catching up. You are both charming in different ways. How lovely that you share all that loveliness with us,both on film and in your camping(glamping) future plans.
Luke is a natural in front of and behind he camera! Thank you for sharing the comings and going’s of the Mapperton Estate, family members and your new and exciting adventures!
