The Chateau Diaries - Stephanie Jarvis Untold Story You Don't Know

Video Overview & Insights

The Chateau Diaries - Stephanie Jarvis Untold Story You Don't Know

This is an mis informed, gossipy, misleading hateful vlog.

— @ChristineKelly1000

The Chateau Diaries has captivated millions, but is there more to the story? Stephanie Jarvis built an empire with The Château Diaries, but with over $30,000 per month from Patreon, fans are asking: Where is the money really going? With unfinished renovations, luxury vacations, and a missing heating system, doubts are growing. Is this a true restoration or a cleverly crafted illusion?

🔍 In this video, we expose the shocking truth behind Château de Lalande, uncover financial mysteries, and question whether The Château Diaries is more about profit than preservation.

Yuck Philip destroyed the chateau diaries

I think you raise some very good points, I did wonder if she is sincere as I always felt she played to the camera a bit especially with any bad news (which seems to happen on a regular basis). I find some of the content now quite uncomfortable , like when they plead money issues and ask for people to donate or even selling their products at inflated prices.

So easy to see you don’t even watch the diaries and haven’t from the start. It’s called chateau diaries not how to renovate a chateau. You’re a parasite that makes money from trying to discredit others. You don’t even have factual content. She’s restoring a 15th century chateau, that is not a quick fix. Many projects have been finished, the chapel aside from tiles that are being made in the same way as the originals and chandeliers that will be put up after the tiles are in. Marie and Pavlinas rooms were done while the grand salon roof was being removed. Kitchen done because the roof fell down holding up the grand salon. Heating in kitchen and wood heaters in many other rooms. Go and watch from the start rather than give this person an income while spreading lies. I don’t see him out there discrediting the kardashians or other influencers or his type of show. We all knew what we were getting with cd and haven’t been let down in the slightest

people are so petty and disgusting in the comments here, what do you guys know about her expenses? yeah she films herself and her dude on vacations she must be a scammer then.. Right? its a old house stuff breaks and she is allocating the restoration where it's most needed, the heating is not that much of a problem so the money goes to the grand salon at the moment, and she pays taxes on the money to, do you think its tax free to receive patreon money?

She has an apartment in London south of France she and her mother millionaires as for boyfriend like to now what job he has apart from setting a table

I don’t get this channel just criticizing people. She’s a business. So what. Nobody is forcing anyone to part with their money. You can see where the money is going. The place is 400 years old!

@eschaefer6512

I don't feel Stephanie owes anybody anything regarding 'transparency'. Those 6000+ Patreons pay each month because they wish to.

The reason the heating hasn't been switched on yet is due to the court case surrounding the death of one of the men working on it.

I don't like their Jarvis Janssen webshop and them selling the kitchenware- aprons, oven mitts etc.... and then robes with pictures from 'Daddys' paintings.... which were created along with Michael Petherick who is now making his own for their channel. Selling those is a bit much.

Feb 2026--SJs CD vlog is really finito. Focused on a lonely, aging, squealing, friendless creature of some energy, limited talent. Her life and that of those around her is BORING. These chateau owners are all pathetic. A chateau was once used for big house parties, w ppl piling in from Paris. ~~ These drifter-grifters have NO friends anywhere ! ! ~~ SJ wants a dining table to seat 40??? She can barely find enough for 6. And 4 are employes. Here's a farce w/o laughs !

And the big snobbery, the big donors get fake titles, marquise and marquis. Quite vomit-:worthy!

@dyspraxicrose3307

The negative tone of the program is very unpleasant, but the worst is the many mean comments coming from people who seem to enjoy writing hurtful things about people they don't know.

Don’t be fooled ! No one is forcing you to watch chateau diaries or any such !just turn away from the vlog!

At the end of the day, everyone has choices, to watch, to donate, to support or not. So many are happy with what she does and keep watching, donating, and supporting. Your video is your opinion and does not change a thing, except firing up a whole lot of keyboard warriers who have nothing better to do than to criticize others. This is a totally useless video wasting everyone's time!

A Lot of lanlanders are paid regular! And she loves to live this Lifestyle! Let her travel 😂😂😂 she does beautiful travels after years of depression and sadness! If you dont Like her decisions, dont donate...

Ähhhh... What the hell are you doing 😂... You dont need to agree with everything... But what she achived, is simply amazing and she deserved the fruits she is earning now!

If you don’t like it, you are free to spend your time in other ways, but writing about negativity seems like a great way to belittle all involved

I was pretty shocked to see this. I visited the chateau a few years ago. Stephanie was lovely. She works tirelessly on her videos so provides her audience with what they want. I know how much money she has put into the chateau and it's an eye watering amount. Running costs are also sky high as you can imagine.
The money she makes on a personal level is of no consequence. Many people have made tens and even hundreds of thousands of dollars creating content on a whole manor of subjects. Stephanie is a lovely and kind hearted girl with a talent for many things. I shared a great week with her.
If you don't like what she does then it's really simple to avoid her .

@nickaskham3055

I must say I cannot bear her . She states'she is the owner. The patron days are the most despicable . It's a me me me me horror . Her declaration of being a fasionista was I for me. When she patronises Dan that was it .for me . AND HER AND MUMMY DASHING AROUND THE PLANET. And all those ghastly family members so boring .

OMG... I love watching these Chateau videos, not really into the diaries ones cause they just seem fake! And never thought of it these way

@jjmjam2749

I unsubscribed a few months ago because the grifting and screeching laughter became too much. Add in the gayonce' to the mix and it became unbearable. She will never get the heating fixed. The list of unfinished projects is ridiculous. The huge cracks on the outside facade indicate major structural problems but she thinks wallpaper will fix it. It's obvious to those who want to see the truth. The Patron money is spent on fine dining, overly priced dresses, expensive hotels and luxury trips. Good luck, Lady Lala-Land. More people are waking up to your schemes.

I stopped watching a couple of years ago as all the laughter became irritating, Stephanie decided to get livestock for slaughter and the sudden appearance of a creepy guy with a tail.

You cannot see where the money is spent on the chateau, which is a mess! She cuts corners,
The place is cold there are moths everywhere omg ! Whilst she goes on holidays

ILLUSION: Tons of us are not as gullible as you may think. We know by now she is not making progress on significant repairs because the funds are going into travel, hobbies, insane parties and decor choices that quite a few of us consider completely gauche. It has made no sense for quite some time why she hasn’t paid real professionals to tackle far more necessary projects than chicken coops, garden trellises, storage room clear outs and pantry reshuffles. Why hasn’t serious progress been made on the facade, the two new gutted rooms, central air, the terrace, window restoration, the lake, on & on. The truth is she needs to pull in triple the amount she is now in order to maintain her desired lifestyle plus make genuine progress. The truth also is, there are way more chateaus that have accomplished far more in 5 years and are vastly more elegant & beautiful than La Lande. What keeps people in their seats is the lives of the people on the show…..however, if you’re like me, even that is becoming super annoying because they do not choose to respect their audience with the dignity of briefly addressing obvious relationship issues, such as: Phillip’s family, Annalise & Dan, Cat & Dan, Amaury & Dan, Selmar & everybody, the Ian’s, Ollie & Camilla and the completely ridiculous “illusive Nick” who won’t be an adult and show his face on camera nor speak to the people who are funding his investment property! Due to these glaring omissions, I for one am dropping out of the race after 5 full years of daily watching. I’m sick of being treated like a child and talked to like I’m in pre-school by someone who acts like a 50 year old fairy……in Never Never Land is more like it!!

Very Disappointing

People should donate there money to the poor or charities these people are taking the Piss.

@Siddybiddy-b1i

Anyone observing step funny talk and cant see through her fake smile is a moron, and donating to this fraudster makes you even more pathetic. Wake up people, St Judes children's Hospital or Shriners would be money better spent.

We don't see much of Gerald these days, he kept her grounded, but if he's anything like the rest of us, having to suffer the table-layer is just not worth the journey

cant believe all the saps that send her money..

@sewcat5
@

She's got men who pay for her trips in return for her company. I knew she was a grifter within the first few weeks of watching her show. She lied about her Flat in London, saying she'd sold it, when it's an air bnb. The mother is rude to the volunteers aswell. Nasty woman.

Yes ..they are scammers. That gay lord Phillip.. mummy is sickening.. and the brother O.M.G poor Percy just has to go with the flow... cant stand them

Sept 2025: SJ is currently wearing the frumpiest clothes. She once exuded a semidemi "glam." Have come to the conclusion: she is not very "bright." Yes, she has personality & energy, but after watching for 4 years, I realize there's no "growth" or development in any direction. ~~~ She is a sad and very lonely person, clinging desperately to Snorts/PhiPhi.

Thanks to this channel for always shinning the light on scammers who sit back and get off with what they do.
