Wealth & Money Quote by Caprice Bourret

Domestic intimacy gets recast here as logistics, and that choice tells you everything about the world Caprice Bourret is speaking from. The line isn’t romantic or even especially grateful in a sentimental way; it’s managerial. “Someone who works with me” comes first, and only then do we get the telling add-ons: “lives with me,” “holds the fort,” “little things,” “money situation.” The emotional center is dependency, but it’s framed as operational necessity.

That’s the subtext of celebrity labor: success isn’t just beauty, branding, or public attention, it’s an ecosystem of invisible caretaking that makes the visible persona possible. Bourret’s phrasing turns the home into a command post. “Holds the fort” borrows from a language of siege and defense, implying constant pressure from outside demands - schedules, bills, bookings, the churn of opportunities and crises. “Sue” becomes less a friend than an infrastructure, the person who absorbs the administrative drag so the “Caprice” product can keep moving.

The intent feels half-confessional, half-normalizing: she’s admitting she can’t do it alone, but she’s also insisting this arrangement is practical, even inevitable. It’s a candid glimpse into how fame often privatizes support systems. Where most people rely on a partner, family, or shared domestic labor, she names a worker - and in doing so exposes how thin the line can be between care and employment when your life is also your business.
