I don't think Billy regards the Convent strictly as "work" on hearing his video, but he needs to address his time allocation for working in the Chateau on some pressing projects from working in the convent, obviously this will mean that he is closer to his family also, both buildings are huge and require a fair amount of upkeep, although the chateau is far more advanced than the convent at present, but I dare say that the work will throw up surprises which might make things a little longer!?!
I’m not here for the convent. I’m here for your renovation. No matter where you are I’ll watch. Never underestimate your worth! You’re a wonderful human
Hyyeees I totally agree with you, I'm here to watch Billys Project, n, sweet Gwendolyn, Ernest, Archie, Bro Michael, n Pa n Ma.... and Simon, and Yanis, and so many of You fantastic Workers (and some Ghosts) Billy, you can show me any kind of work n transformation, to watch makes me happy every day!!
Bonjour ! je comprends parfaitement votre résolution, et je l'approuve entièrement. A votre âge, on ne peut concevoir qu'une période désagréable peut parfaitement arriver, telle qu'un souci de santé pour soi ou d'autres. J'ai mis un an à peu près pour y faire face, quant à moi, et croyez-moi, on ne s'y attend pas. Bonne continuation ! A mes yeux, vous êtes les bonnes personnes, au bon endroit, sur la bonne route. Ciao !
As a cancer survivor and dad of a young family I can tell you, you are doing the right thing, I often wondered what time you had left for your kids and the Mrs after so much time at the convent, you have your whole life to get the convent up to scratch but your kids will only be young once my friend, enjoy them and Gwen as much as you can. 👍💪
My husband and I have had this same conversation, the chateau is your home. Your family is most important. We just enjoy your vlogs wherever they are filmed.
Billy family is always first. We the viewers just tag along and love watching you. We will always be here supporting and cheering for you no matter what.
Billy, you are 100% right, spend time with the family. Your sons are young now, enjoy that time with them and Gwen.. That's one thing my dad said as he got older, worked a lot, and wished he spent more time with us when we were growing up. The Convent will be there when you get time, bravo!
My husband missed so much of our children's lives. (1 is off across the country 14 hours away and the other is 16 and has not seen her father but one or two days a week) Please do not miss out on seeing our children thrive and grow! And that lovely Gwen! She needs your time and energy too!
Family first. Us viewers will support your journey regardless of where that may be (not that you need our permission as it is)! As a wise man once said, Billy... Crack on!
Family comes first and we do what we have to do. The convent isn't going anywhere and can wait, while you can't go back and pick up where you left off when it comes to family.
Your boys will only be little ones for a little while! I’m with you no matter what project and am looking forward to seeing you working on the chateau again.
Please, please please complete the basement kitchen. I have been wanting to see that kitchen back to its glory like the rest of your gorgeous chateau. Thanks for your candid chat. Family always first.
Yes. I know Michael was supposed to do it but I hope Billy can shift that project into drive. It would be great to start seeing Michael regularly again.
I know it’s a big job because the terrace (not sure that’s the right term) above the kitchen needs to be addressed, but I also would welcome hearing your thoughts for the kitchen space.
Having watched you, Gwen and Michael from the early days I'm grateful for the escape. Family is everything and your boys will love having their Dad around to build memories. You're all young and time is on your side so enjoy your ventures don't let them dictate to you all. And Billy thank you for sharing it means the world to many of us who will not get the opportunity to do what you all do best. Hello from Down Under 😊
A saying in America is “if momma ain’t happy then no body is happy” so keep her happy. Great job finish those project. I love seeing those projects too! Crack on🎉
Nothing wrong in taking a step back for a while. In fact stepping back will revitalize your desire to finish it off and make both places paying their own way.
Billy, you and your wife and children are your first priority and we are so proud that you know that spending time with your family is most important. We’re all so proud of you
I love watching the convent evolve, but I love watching the Chateau as well! Nothing is more important than family and it’s refreshing to see you make sure they are attended to.
You are very fortunate to have to choose between two passions, but you have only one family. You are making the right choice. How articulate you are. Thank you for including us in your French adventure!
Billy you will find the balance. Time spent with your children is priceless. So much you can teach them. Remember you have Simon and Yannis to crack on at the Convent. We all love your family and only want the best for everyone,
Dear Sweet Mother Mary!! BILLY!!! When I read the title to this video, my heart sank, I thought it was the end of your videos. I'm not only RELIEVED that they are NOT ending, but we'll be seeing more of your family & Chateau is a HUGE BONUS!! YAY!! You made my week!!! Merci beaucoup!! 💕💞💓💗💖
Billy, it's always wonderful to see a man speak his priorities. You do what you need to do, after all, you live at the chateau and if it needs maintenance, that takes priority over the convent, but your family definitely come first.
Billy! I'm certain that I speak for many of your happy followers to learn you're returning to work on your home again!. At 10:53 of this vid, you mentioned that it's only "superficial work" left to do at the chateau?!? I might respectfully point out that, to YOU such tasks may be superficial by your standard, but to your viewers, watching you so skillfully restore each intricate minute detail of that sleeping beauty with such finesse, and to such a professional standard of excellence IS why we tune in to your channel !! Anyone can bash a hole in a wall, but there are few who can do what You do SO very well, hence don't be too surprised to discover an up-surge of new subscribers to this channel! 🏰👍👍👍
You are absolutely doing the right thing. I have 5 kids, and have missed a lot of their childhoods by working. Luckily, Dad was home with them most of their childhoods, but I did miss a lot. Build the relationships with those boys. Show them they're the priority. They may not recognize it now, but they will when they're older. You do you, and we'll come along for the ride! As someone who only discovered your channel fairly recently, and who went back and watched ALL of the convent videos, this will be a nice chance to learn more about the Chateau, which I've not had the chance to go watch the videos from yet.
I truly wish I could come and help you with the convent. I'm not a professional or anything, and I'm healing from a very extensive surgery to repair my right rotator cuff and bicep that was completely obliterated. I pray for you, your family to be close and have great relationships with one another, and for the renovations to be completely finished in all your properties in God's time. I think it's amazing you have the understanding to take a sabbatical so to speak, to be with your wife and children. I literally just found your channel today and have been going through the videos as possible. I live in Oklahoma and absolutely adore the architecture of the convent and what you have and you are doing to it in the future. If I had the money to get there, my husband, 3 son's and I, I'd love to be of service. But I'm cheering you on from my home in Oklahoma. Praying for you Mr. Billy, sir!
Right time, right choice. Its been a very intense amount of work done at the convent. So home is the place to be for the time being. We will follow you wherever you go.😊
Happy you’ve chosen your family first. I for one will enjoy watching you continue with the Chateau, updates on the convent and your grandparents Reno’s. We’re all here because we enjoy your videos. Crack on Billy 👨🏼🔧
Speaking entirely for myself Billy I love watching you bring your vision to improve something with a little character and a bit of history into something really special, if anyone is jealous of that it's THEIR problem, not yours, but I know you'll shine with either project, so satisfy yourself, and you don't owe anyone but Gwen any explanations.
I think it is a perfectly reasonable decision to make. Family first!! If you are inviting us to follow the renovations at the château, I am just as thrilled. I am glad you will give us sneak peeks of the convent in the meantime. All the best!
I will be very happy to see more of the chateau and Gwen and the boys and the rest of the Pethericks. That’s what we all love. The convent has been interesting, but family comes first and you are doing the right thing. We enjoy whatever you do and are happy to follow you with whatever you do next.
1. I found and loved your channel based on the chateau, so looking forward to seeing more of it 2. Seemed like the channel really flourished when you had a videographer and at least one other person working. Things go by faster when there’s a team working together 3. Once the chateau is complete. I’d focus on the convent apartments to get a steady cash flow and peace of mind 4. Thanks for the best daily vids!
Its not the building or the renovation it's young your friends and family. I will watch regardless of what you are doing because you are always so positive and doing the right thing for others.
I hope you will continue filming wherever you are working and/or have the workers film while they work on the convent. We really enjoy your show and look forward to seeing your show every day.
Yes, totally understand the need to shift your focus! Your relationship with Gwendolyn and your sons needs your attention, those young sons will learn a lot more from you if you are present with them!
Billy, your life is so different than most of ours that we are happy to watch wherever you're working and improving. For sure, your family's happiness is more important than getting the convent done on someone else's schedule.
I always wondered why you didn’t renovate the chateau. I thought you might have been tired of that particular project. I’m glad to hear that you’re getting back to the family and the chateau. Family comes first and your projects at home are important.
Awe Billy you are a better man for spending valuable time with Gwen and the boys as well as the Chateau! Other people can work on the Convent! So No Worries! We will be here either way! YOU DO WHAT YOU CAN DO and what is best for You and FOR YOUR FAMILY.
BRAVO, Billy! Family is most important! Your fans will follow you. Would love to watch your little chapel refurbished be refurbished, too! The chateau is awesome!
Don’t forget we started watching because it’s called The Pethericks not The convent . Your followers will enjoy watching whatever you produce but glad you putting family first x
Proud of you Billy! I can only imagine what and how you are feeling. You are only one man and you took on a huge challenge, What you have done is remarkable even with the amazing helpers you have had. I am excited to see the chateau getting what it will need for the future. Most of all I am so very happy Gwen and the kids will have your attention and cuddles more often. All of this with the world watching and some of them not so friendly. However you know who your fans are, you know who loves you and everyone will be rooting for you while you "Crack on!"
Neat and tidy in the opening as usual. Re your “new” plans, that’s just life. Re-evaluating what needs your attention at any particular point is being a responsible adult. Being aware of where your focus must be and responding is exactly what to do. ❤
No worries, luv. It's the ebb and flow of life. Stay in the flow and always be grateful for those who share in it with you. All the best to you and your family. Cheers!
It makes perfect sense. Every year it is important to sit down and reevaluate your priorities or you just just get stuck. Family always comes first. It will be as nice for us to see more of your family as it will be for you. Lucky you have such a hard working, talented work crew who can see your vision.
You and your family and many trusted craftsman have really worked tireless hours bringing this place back from ruin. The clearing of all the thickets and trees and trash took so much out of all of you and your just starting to see what is actually there under all that over growth. And that's just the outside. The inside is hundreds of years of modifications and changes and you have brought that kitchen to looking like a master piece. I'm looking forward to seeing how you progress inside and outside for this year.
Yes!!! I've been waiting for this decision for a long time now. I think it is the right thing to do. I never understood how you could have left so much unfinishhed work at the chateau. And spending more time at home with your family is a huge bonus, too. ❤
I’m a relatively new viewer. I did not realize the work at the Chateau wasn’t complete. By all means, finish this before tackling another huge project. You know what they say about a candle burning at both ends.
Well I love both properties. I don't even need to see you building. I'm just as happy exploring. It's nice that you know how and are fixing. Your family needs to be most important. The children will have a wonderful childhood growing up with the ability to explore the property with you and your wife. And extended family.
A very wise decision Billy, I missed seeing my children growing up, because I was always working, running 3 businesses, one of which was a shipping company. and never getting home till the kids were in bed. The convent will always be there, with others doing the work. I'm sure Gwen will be happy too.
Cheers to you Billy and your family! 🎉 I’m looking forward to more Chateau content. It’s such a beautiful estate. Family always comes first. Your boys and your wife will appreciate you being at home with them. Cheers again!
No guilt! Family & home always first. Will always follow along as I love everyone & interesting content. Remember to keep sharing the load with others. Everyone is growing!
Gwen is such a beautiful Mother and Wife. It is so right of you to appreciate her and make her happy. The Boys are only young for so long so they too will be happy to see Daddy more!. The Chateau is so fabulous and you were saying in the past that you wanted to redo the Kitchen in the basement. The Kitchen in the Convent came out gorgeous, so you can make that fabulous as well. The Ladies retreats Gwen is having look wonderful! I wish her much success in that venture. Feeding the soul is necessary for all! Crack on Billy and thanks for sharing 👏
You are the fourth vlog I follow that started a second project before finishing their main project. Then they seem to flail around without any real direction where they are going. I realize how hard it must be coming up with content, filming, editing, construction, etc., but to juggle that with real life and additional vlogs or projects doesn't make your product any better. It's like watching a TV series that loses its main character. Some succeed, most don't. Wish you the best.
Glad to see you looking after your family and home life. Also very relieved this isn't a hard goodbye to the Convent. I'm quite invested to see how that library turns out!
I would really like to see the improvements at the Chateau, especially the downstairs kitchen. You might have someone send updates from the convent occasionally
I Started Following You Way Before The Convent …… So Glad You Are Being True To Yourself and Family …… Your channel is aways a joy to follow …… As you say ….. Crack On
Family is so important, and it's awesome you recognize this before it's too late. And, sometimes you need a change too. Not to mention this IS your channel, and you have the liberty to do whatever you want. We're here because we choose to be here.....so crack on wherever you want to crack on 😊

Yes, indeed!!! Well said. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 “Work to live, don’t live to work.”
My friend would say "I work to keep Mumma happy, I live for my kids" 💞
Billy your great to watch, regardless where your at, take care of you and your family ❤
We love watching you all , Yanis is a working machine, could you tell us about him, we know that he is Moe friend, so what’s his story?
I’m not here for the convent. I’m here for your renovation. No matter where you are I’ll watch. Never underestimate your worth! You’re a wonderful human
Hyyeees I totally agree with you, I'm here to watch Billys Project, n, sweet Gwendolyn, Ernest, Archie, Bro Michael, n Pa n Ma.... and Simon, and Yanis, and so many of You fantastic Workers (and some Ghosts) Billy, you can show me any kind of work n transformation, to watch makes me happy every day!!
Amen! You said all ❤❤❤❤❤
You said it perfectly right 😊 i feel the same 😊
You said it perfectly right 😊 i feel the same.
Returning to finish your home seems a logical choice. Following your heart to take care of your family first is a great thing.
Bonjour ! je comprends parfaitement votre résolution, et je l'approuve entièrement. A votre âge, on ne peut concevoir qu'une période désagréable peut parfaitement arriver, telle qu'un souci de santé pour soi ou d'autres. J'ai mis un an à peu près pour y faire face, quant à moi, et croyez-moi, on ne s'y attend pas. Bonne continuation ! A mes yeux, vous êtes les bonnes personnes, au bon endroit, sur la bonne route.

As a cancer survivor and dad of a young family I can tell you, you are doing the right thing, I often wondered what time you had left for your kids and the Mrs after so much time at the convent, you have your whole life to get the convent up to scratch but your kids will only be young once my friend, enjoy them and Gwen as much as you can. 👍💪
❤
Very well said.🖤🇨🇦
Me reading this before watching the vid, thinking this vid would be an announcement that Billy has cancer: 😨😨
My husband is a cancer survivor & this comment is so very well said and really hits home to me! Family comes first! Have a wonderful weekend! 🙏❤
❤
Children grow up so quickly. You’ll never regret the time you spend with them now.
So true ❤
As long as you're happy, we're all happy and following
We follow you because you are YOU Billy. You do what is best for you and your family. We are just along for the ride❤
this.
Exactly
Fairs.. I followed cos he's restoring a convent, doesn't mean I won't watch the chateau video.
💯♥️
Well said!!
The convent will still be there in the autumn. Time with the boys and during the spring and summer will be a wonderful time. They need you now.
My husband and I have had this same conversation, the chateau is your home. Your family is most important. We just enjoy your vlogs wherever they are filmed.
Billy family is always first. We the viewers just tag along and love watching you. We will always be here supporting and cheering for you no matter what.
Excellent decisions, Billy. We will continue to watch you and cheer you on. You got this!
We are following The Pethericks, so wherever you are working, we are there supporting you. X
Billy, you are 100% right, spend time with the family. Your sons are young now, enjoy that time with them and Gwen.. That's one thing my dad said as he got older, worked a lot, and wished he spent more time with us when we were growing up. The Convent will be there when you get time, bravo!
I second that!
I third that idea!!
So much agree with that.
My husband missed so much of our children's lives. (1 is off across the country 14 hours away and the other is 16 and has not seen her father but one or two days a week) Please do not miss out on seeing our children thrive and grow! And that lovely Gwen! She needs your time and energy too!
Your priorities are right where they should be. Take care of that charming family!
Awesome Billy. We'll get to see more of your boys and Gwendolyn. 👍💙💙💙
Will love seeing more of the Chateau, it's so beautiful!
Family first. Us viewers will support your journey regardless of where that may be (not that you need our permission as it is)! As a wise man once said, Billy... Crack on!
Family comes first and we do what we have to do. The convent isn't going anywhere and can wait, while you can't go back and pick up where you left off when it comes to family.
You are a very sensible man Billy and you must do what is best for you and your family , we love you all xxx
Very sensible billy. You’ve chosen the right things and people to prioritise. ❤
Your boys will only be little ones for a little while! I’m with you no matter what project and am looking forward to seeing you working on the chateau again.
Great decision, family first ❤ Nothing wrong with that at all. 🙂
Gentle Hug for everyone in your family.
So happy for you, Billy! We will be happy watching you no matter what you are working on.
Please, please please complete the basement kitchen. I have been wanting to see that kitchen back to its glory like the rest of your gorgeous chateau. Thanks for your candid chat. Family always first.
Ive have been hoping that the kitchen would come up one day.
Yes. I know Michael was supposed to do it but I hope Billy can shift that project into drive. It would be great to start seeing Michael regularly again.
I know it’s a big job because the terrace (not sure that’s the right term) above the kitchen needs to be addressed, but I also would welcome hearing your thoughts for the kitchen space.
Yes please! I have been waiting for the kitchen reno. It will be spectacular.
Having watched you, Gwen and Michael from the early days I'm grateful for the escape. Family is everything and your boys will love having their Dad around to build memories. You're all young and time is on your side so enjoy your ventures don't let them dictate to you all.

Crack on🎉
Yep. Happy wife, happy life.😊
Or happy wife happy life
Nothing wrong in taking a step back for a while. In fact stepping back will revitalize your desire to finish it off and make both places paying their own way.
Billy, you and your wife and children are your first priority and we are so proud that you know that spending time with your family is most important. We’re all so proud of you
I admire you for choosing your family & your home come first! ❤
WISE choice to choose Family! The RIGHT choice! We are Cheering you on! 👍👍👍👏👏❤️😄👵🏼🇸🇪
I’ll still watch you whatever you do !
I love watching the convent evolve, but I love watching the Chateau as well! Nothing is more important than family and it’s refreshing to see you make sure they are attended to.
Very happy you’re prioritizing your family life over the convent. I am also excited to see more of the chateau again 👏🏻 ❤
You are very fortunate to have to choose between two passions, but you have only one family. You are making the right choice. How articulate you are. Thank you for including us in your French adventure!
I’m so excited to see the Château 😍 getting some love 😄
Wise thinking.
Family first.
Thank you Billy for sharing parts of your life with us.
I’m delighted to see the Château again.
Billy you will find the balance. Time spent with your children is priceless. So much you can teach them. Remember you have Simon and Yannis to crack on at the Convent. We all love your family and only want the best for everyone,

Lots of projects. Convent. At the Chateau. Grandparents. Simon's house updates.
Always fun to watch your work.
I’m always happy to see what you guys are up to. Location doesn’t matter! Frequency doesn’t matter. YOU matter! 🌺
You are absolutely doing the right thing. I have 5 kids, and have missed a lot of their childhoods by working. Luckily, Dad was home with them most of their childhoods, but I did miss a lot. Build the relationships with those boys. Show them they're the priority. They may not recognize it now, but they will when they're older. You do you, and we'll come along for the ride! As someone who only discovered your channel fairly recently, and who went back and watched ALL of the convent videos, this will be a nice chance to learn more about the Chateau, which I've not had the chance to go watch the videos from yet.

Praying for you Mr. Billy, sir!
Right time, right choice. Its been a very intense amount of work done at the convent. So home is the place to be for the time being. We will follow you wherever you go.😊
You do what you need, we are just along for the ride. As the head of your family, they should be priority ONE. Love and prayers.
We watch you and whatever you are working on. Your fans will follow you.
Im so glad you're going to be closer to your family. Ive worried that you seem to be working so many hours and your family doesnt see enough of you.
Happy you’ve chosen your family first. I for one will enjoy watching you continue with the Chateau, updates on the convent and your grandparents Reno’s. We’re all here because we enjoy your videos. Crack on Billy 👨🏼🔧
Wonderfully put! 🥰🥰
You are a wonderful person, Billy! Enjoy your family!
Glad your getting back to basics! I appreciate your sharing videos with us! Looking forward to work on the Chateau!
Speaking entirely for myself Billy I love watching you bring your vision to improve something with a little character and a bit of history into something really special, if anyone is jealous of that it's THEIR problem, not yours, but I know you'll shine with either project, so satisfy yourself, and you don't owe anyone but Gwen any explanations.

I will be very happy to see more of the chateau and Gwen and the boys and the rest of the Pethericks. That’s what we all love. The convent has been interesting, but family comes first and you are doing the right thing. We enjoy whatever you do and are happy to follow you with whatever you do next.
1. I found and loved your channel based on the chateau, so looking forward to seeing more of it

Makes a huge ton of sense to us. Live your life and be with the fam, you never get this time back. Cheers!
Awe Billy you are a better man for spending valuable time with Gwen and the boys as well as the Chateau! Other people can work on the Convent! So No Worries! We will be here either way! YOU DO WHAT YOU CAN DO and what is best for You and FOR YOUR FAMILY.
BRAVO, Billy! Family is most important! Your fans will follow you. Would love to watch your little chapel refurbished be refurbished, too! The chateau is awesome!
Ohhhh I would totally cry over the chapel getting some love ooooooo ❤️❤️😄🙏
Don’t forget we started watching because it’s called The Pethericks not The convent . Your followers will enjoy watching whatever you produce but glad you putting family first x
Speak for yourself
Phew! I was worried for a minute.. im looking forward to seeing the château Billy . Family always comes first. You take care. 😊🏴
I'm so happy that you are prioritizing your family. They are what counts most. ❤
I admire your willingness to prioritize the family. We are with you.
Proud of you Billy! I can only imagine what and how you are feeling. You are only one man and you took on a huge challenge, What you have done is remarkable even with the amazing helpers you have had. I am excited to see the chateau getting what it will need for the future. Most of all I am so very happy Gwen and the kids will have your attention and cuddles more often. All of this with the world watching and some of them not so friendly. However you know who your fans are, you know who loves you and everyone will be rooting for you while you "Crack on!"
I have enjoyed watching the renovations at the convent, but I am totally here for the chateau so I'm thrilled about the change in focus.
What a great decision Billy 😃 We’re along for the ride and grateful. You’ve got a lovely family and a great working team around you 🙏
Neat and tidy in the opening as usual.
Re your “new” plans, that’s just life. Re-evaluating what needs your attention at any particular point is being a responsible adult. Being aware of where your focus must be and responding is exactly what to do. ❤
No worries, luv. It's the ebb and flow of life. Stay in the flow and always be grateful for those who share in it with you. All the best to you and your family. Cheers!
Family is everything!
We're here for you Billy ❤️
Billy I'm proud to hear your doing what a man of the family is suppose to do. Best wishes to you and your family.
Happy Wife, happy life. Crack on! Excited to see more of the Chateau.
It makes perfect sense. Every year it is important to sit down and reevaluate your priorities or you just just get stuck. Family always comes first. It will be as nice for us to see more of your family as it will be for you. Lucky you have such a hard working, talented work crew who can see your vision.
I love your videos whether at the convent or at the château. Keep doing what makes you happy and keeps your family happy. ❤️
You and your family and many trusted craftsman have really worked tireless hours bringing this place back from ruin. The clearing of all the thickets and trees and trash took so much out of all of you and your just starting to see what is actually there under all that over growth. And that's just the outside. The inside is hundreds of years of modifications and changes and you have brought that kitchen to looking like a master piece. I'm looking forward to seeing how you progress inside and outside for this year.
I for one miss the Chateau. Bring it on!
Yes!!!
I've been waiting for this decision for a long time now. I think it is the right thing to do. I never understood how you could have left so much unfinishhed work at the chateau. And spending more time at home with your family is a huge bonus, too. ❤
I’m a relatively new viewer. I did not realize the work at the Chateau wasn’t complete. By all means, finish this before tackling another huge project. You know what they say about a candle burning at both ends.
I think you’ve made a sound decision, Billy. The convent must seem to be owning you! I look forward to seeing more of the chateau and your family🤗
Well I love both properties. I don't even need to see you building. I'm just as happy exploring. It's nice that you know how and are fixing. Your family needs to be most important. The children will have a wonderful childhood growing up with the ability to explore the property with you and your wife. And extended family.
We are loyal, will watch no matter where you are restoring.
As long as you & your family & friends don't disappear from our screen, I'm happy. Love the convent. Bless you all.
You have your priorities right Billy ❤
A very wise decision Billy, I missed seeing my children growing up, because I was always working, running 3 businesses, one of which was a shipping company. and never getting home till the kids were in bed. The convent will always be there, with others doing the work.
I'm sure Gwen will be happy too.
Makes sense you can split projects, but not days. absolutely sensible way to organize your time.
Cheers to you Billy and your family! 🎉 I’m looking forward to more Chateau content. It’s such a beautiful estate. Family always comes first. Your boys and your wife will appreciate you being at home with them. Cheers again!
No guilt! Family & home always first. Will always follow along as I love everyone & interesting content. Remember to keep sharing the load with others. Everyone is growing!
Gwen is such a beautiful Mother and Wife. It is so right of you to appreciate her and make her happy. The Boys are only young for so long so they too will be happy to see Daddy more!. The Chateau is so fabulous and you were saying in the past that you wanted to redo the Kitchen in the basement. The Kitchen in the Convent came out gorgeous, so you can make that fabulous as well. The Ladies retreats Gwen is having look wonderful! I wish her much success in that venture. Feeding the soul is necessary for all! Crack on Billy and thanks for sharing 👏
They are not married.
Great decision Billy! Family time is precious and kids grow way too fast.
You are the fourth vlog I follow that started a second project before finishing their main project. Then they seem to flail around without any real direction where they are going. I realize how hard it must be coming up with content, filming, editing, construction, etc., but to juggle that with real life and additional vlogs or projects doesn't make your product any better. It's like watching a TV series that loses its main character. Some succeed, most don't. Wish you the best.

Glad to see you looking after your family and home life. Also very relieved this isn't a hard goodbye to the Convent. I'm quite invested to see how that library turns out!
Gwen is happy, you are happy, all of us are happy too. Enjoy your family. We can't wait to see you start the renovation of those rooms.
I would really like to see the improvements at the Chateau, especially the downstairs kitchen. You might have someone send updates from the convent occasionally
I Started Following You Way Before The Convent …… So Glad You Are Being True To Yourself and Family …… Your channel is aways a joy to follow …… As you say ….. Crack On
You do you Billy! Will always watch and enjoy regardless 😊
I'm So glad you are making the decision that brings you closer to your family. We love hanging out with you wherever you are.
You do what you need to. The convent isn’t going anywhere. We will still be following you.! And your amazing crew!
Family is so important, and it's awesome you recognize this before it's too late. And, sometimes you need a change too. Not to mention this IS your channel, and you have the liberty to do whatever you want. We're here because we choose to be here.....so crack on wherever you want to crack on 😊
