Jordyn Alix LangfordHeritage: French
Hometown: Paris Living in: Hampstead, London Current Age: 62 Jordyn is 5'4" and has a slim figure with curves. As a big fan of yoga since her early twenties, she has a good posture. She loves to walk but passionately hates every other kind of exercise. She is a true believer of taking care of herself and her appearance - still loves jewelry, still loves facial treatments. Years did not take her love for clothes and shopping away; she still dresses with equal joy, if only more subtly. She used to play the saxophone and she was the singer of the jazz duo with her husband Stuart. Now she prefers to spend time with her family and friends. Treating Amy and Margaux to champagne afternoon teas at ritzy hotels and spoiling the younger grandchildren with elaborate play dates is her favourite thing. Jordyn was born in Paris as the eldest daughter of Jacqueline Perrault and Gustave Perrault. Her father run a family business of a high end champagne brand but Jordyn had no interest in the business except drinking it. Her journey of music which started as a hobby to kill time turned into a long and fruitful career when she and her husband started to make music together. |
Stuart Rhys LangfordHeritage: English
Hometown: Berkshire Living in: Hampstead, London Current Age: 63 Age has turned his once dirty blonde hair into an ashy shade but he is very proud of not going bald. He is a tall man at 6'3" and he is fascinated by the fact that almost all of his children still managed to outgrow him. He believes in quality over quantity and has a very small closet compared to his wife's. His eyes are a bright blue and they seem to stay exactly the same as they were when he was a flirty 20-something boy. He is very relaxed and laid back, he will harmlessly flirt with every attractive woman he encounters but he is very much in love with his wife. He was the pianist of the jazz duo he had formed with his wife. He has a nice husky voice which he uses to allure Jordyn - at least he thinks so. He is prone to say yes to anything if he's had enough brandy. Coming from family money and growing up in a quaint house in Berkshire, young Stuart could hardly be defined as ambitious or hardworking. The one thing he had been consistently interested in was music and women, and he was lucky enough to combine his biggest loves in one person, his wife Jordyn. Looking at him, one couldn't imagine the ordeals he had put himself and his family through during his youth. |
Armand Charles LangfordHeritage: English and French
Living in: London & currently New York Current Age: 40 Address: Upper West Side, NY; 10 The Boltons, SW10 Details: (X) A classical pianist and teacher, Armand's days are filled with music sheets and rolling eyes at faculty bureaucracy more than anything else. Formerly teaching at the Royal Academy of Music, he has recently accepted a guest lecturer job at Julliard and temporarily moved to New York. At almost 6'5", he is already a sizeable person but he adds to that with years of regular gym visits. He is an avid runner and bit annoyed that his knees have slowly started to ask him to calm it down with heavy sprints. His daughters' new friends are almost always surprised with his age, most people not knowing that he and his ex-wife Robbie had Amy when they were 18 and Margaux when they were 22. He has struggled with balancing his life in the past but now that his kids are grown up, he thinks having had children young was the best decision of his life. He has a great relationship with his daughters, even if they are a handful, and he is quite close with his family. He loves comfortable clothes, watching crime series, tea and dark ales. He has a small hoard of good Scotch at home at all times. Dog person at heart. Drives an Audi Q8 when he's in London. Royce Joseph LangfordHeritage: English and French
Living in: London Current Age: 37 Address: 15 Gilston Road, SW10 Details: (X) The wild child of his family with the agility of a ferret, he's been accused of being responsible for all the grey hair of his mother's since the day he was born. Always in trouble and sporting at least one broken bone per year, he's spent his youth having the time of his life causing all kinds of mayhem. His band Babycake, in which he's the lead singer, has been a surprising success for all of the members and he's enjoyed a good musical career full of tours and several albums and a few awards before he's decided to take a step towards the back stage in the past few years. He's married the love of his life, Rachel, after a decade of ups and downs and the arrival of their daughter Rose, who is now 7. They also have a boy, Henry, who is about to turn 3. For a man who was supposedly the antichrist of commitment and parenthood, he is very much obsessed with his wife and kids, however he has not managed to grow up as much as hoped. His favourite food is fish&chips and he is mad about vintage cars, although Rachel has strictly forbidden him to buy any more than he already owns, which is a 1968 black Jaguar E-Type. Covered in tattoos, he is also skilled in making them. He's spent several years as a freelance tattoo artist in his 20s. Having an art degree also comes in useful when he is helping his kids with their colouring. They have two dogs: Princess the Rottweiler and Pup the rescue. |
Margaux Charlotte LangfordHeritage: English, Scottish and French
Living in: London & Oxford Current Age: 18 Address: Merton College, Oxford; 10 The Boltons, SW10 Details: (X) Margaux is the proud owner of countless nicknames since her infancy, including but not limited to Lottie, Pixie, Custard, Freckles, Tiny and a childhood staple, Buttercup. But she is mostly called Margie. She has a calm, gentle temperament which masks her dry humour and deadpan deliveries. She's struggled with social anxiety all her life and has never really felt comfortable in loud crowds, unlike her older sister Amy. Not made for the center stage, she thrives mostly in familiar surroundings. Her initial plan after finishing school was to take a gap year and sort her priorities out, but when her offer for Oxford got accepted, she's decided to take it instead of her original plan of doing volunteer work. She's currently in Merton College, studying English and Modern Languages. She's been a vegetarian since she was 11 years old. Her favourite food is pasta and she never says no to ginger ale. Never having had any interest in heavy drinking, most she can enjoy is white wine and prosecco. She knows this hardly makes her a party favourite, but she doesn't care. She's been a yoga lover for the past five years. |
