Euan Blair advises Starmer's children on Downing Street life

Euan Blair, the eldest son of former Prime Minister Tony Blair, has shared advice with Sir Keir Starmer's children on growing up in Downing Street. Euan, who lived in the famous residence during his childhood, emphasized the importance of maintaining a sense of normalcy. In an interview with Newsnight, he encouraged Starmer's children to focus on what feels normal at home. Euan remembers his own experience and stressed that life behind the iconic black door can still resemble a typical household. He believes this approach can help young people navigate their formative years. Sir Keir Starmer and his wife, Lady Victoria Starmer, have made efforts to keep their teenage children out of the public spotlight. They avoid sharing their children's names and frequently keep them from appearing in photographs. However, the pressures of political life were evident when Starmer arranged for his son to study in a quieter environment during the election. Euan Blair has had a successful career after his childhood in power. He is now the CEO of an apprenticeship company called Multiverse, which matches young people with corporate jobs. The company is valued at around £1.4 billion, and Euan's stake is estimated at £350 million. Euan's teenage years included some challenges, such as an embarrassing incident in 2000 when he was arrested for being drunk. Despite this, he went on to study history and international relations before establishing his company. The Blair family has taken different career paths. Euan’s siblings have also found success, with Nicky becoming a football agent and Kathryn a barrister, while Leo is studying at Oxford and has shown interest in music and politics.
