I wish her and her family well in the coming days. I'd say her dad wished her an amazing weekend, nobody knows what her family dynamics are so only her and her family know about those conversations.

Agree completely, People stating that she is a disgrace for having her wedding when they don’t know what has happened behind closed doors. With the restrictions in the hospitals at the moment, what did they expect the girl to do? Sit at home and cry with her 4 siblings and cousins? It would have only been Jacqui being able to see him.
The call may well be that he’s being let home for end of life care which is why she’s bundled everything into the jeep to get home, you can see by the state of it that everything was thrown in, in a rush.

People had a lot to say when the girl went home the past two christmases to see her father and still have a lot to say now that she’s had a wedding without him, she’ll never be able to please any of these.

Am I the only one not at all bothered what her Fiancé does? When she says he 'doesn't do social media', I always took it that he just didn't want to be plastered all over her social media- which is fair enough?
He's her Manager- and? Yes, she mightn't have announced that, but again- does it really matter? I don't think her 'hiding' it is a big deal
Maybe I'm missing something..

She is choosing entirely to have a wedding that her dad can’t attend when she’s already married. And you’re on the wrong website if you’re offended by people with views other than the ones you have.

No, she chose to have the first wedding so her dad could be there. Yesterday was the original plan but she made a new plan to make sure her dad could be there. Fair play to her in my opinion

Couldn’t give less of shit about her sisters conviction and anyone else for that matters people do shit and go prison big whoop doesn’t mean you should judge everyone based on that. And as for the sharing the Bobby sands post so what??? Not sure what the problem is she’s Irish and therefore maybe aligned to Sinn Fein or republican struggles shock horror

No one should judge- when my dad was terminally ill he insisted we kept everything normal and didn’t change any plans or how we did things. The wedding might be going ahead at his insistence. My dad passed before I met my husband and I obviously found the wedding day hard but in some ways I think it’s more difficult for Maeve with her dad still here but not able to attend. Anyone criticising her for going ahead with the wedding needs to have a look at themselves as it’s nasty and lacking compassion.

One thing I will say is that I am in awe that someone whose family is so involved with Irish republicanism is so hung up on the Queen. My Father would slap the head off me if I was getting on like that and my mother would be turning in her grave.

Really? I think it’s great to see that she’s not limited by her background and seems to have affection for the Queen. Im no monarchist but I think generally most people liked Queen Elizabeth II, appreciated her trip to Ireland and held her in high regard for how seriously she took her role for an exceptional reign.
Honestly I think inheriting your parents prejudices is weird and backwards.

Yeah I have to say the complete lack of sympathy for someone who’s dad is basically dying is what gives sites like this a bad name

I like her. Of all the influencers I follow she is at least one of the more open ones. Liked her rant about the guy in the gym this morning.

I like her too. You aren't in the wrong thread it's not an echo chamber in here.
It's possible to like someone but dislike some things they do.

I would like to think he waited until the wedding passed to let go. My sister in laws father hung on until she came back from her big scan that day, once he saw the photo and heard the good news, he passed a while after.
None of us know the full details. And quite frankly who the hell are we to judge on the reasons why the wedding went ahead, judge the dress, colour of her lipstick or whatever, but whoever said this isn’t a rave thread and to move on should be ashamed of themselves. Stand by what you said by all means, in fact I think you should as backtracking would make you look fake, however, don’t dismiss others points of view and good wishes and intentions. There a lot of people here who have clearly lost people in a similar manner and have every right to sympathise and relate.
you can go back to laughing at her accent or her carryon at more suitable hour if you had any decency.

You can be considered terminal for months and in some cases years. What Daddy would want his whole family putting their lives on hold feeling like they couldn’t do anything or go anywhere, constantly living in that fear. Yes it is awful timing, but you could also say he was happy to see Maeve have her big day and was happy to let go and be in peace

I think in normal times I’d have had a LOT to say about that wedding. But with her awful situation I could only see it for what it was- her trying to make the best of a very shit day. I do think her being on her phone a lot is the only way she can get out of her thoughts and really who wouldn’t do that, the poor woman was clearly trying to distract herself and stay upbeat. I think she tried to and probably did make some really nice memories, but bittersweet.

I’ll shit on a lot of influencers for a lot of things but how they choose to cope with a dying parent ain’t one of them

I’m actually speechless. It’s awful, the whole look. I thought her London wedding look was perfection but this is “my big fat gypsy wedding” vibes. Awful.

Do you think she’ll ever have babies?

It’s 2024 are women seriously asking this question of other women???

I can't imagine having that day when my dad was so sick but then I know my dad would 100% say do it and he would want to be alive to see all the pictures & videos and to hear me tell him about it.
Maybe hers is the same and wants to see his daughter have a lovely day even if not there? No one really knows.
Everyone behaves differently when faced with times like this. I wouldn't handle it well and 100% my siblings would visit more than me, it wouldn't mean I love my dad any less than them so I think those kinds of comments are very harsh.
No one can really judge as we aren't Maeve.

Omg would you get over yourself. I've merely stated that everyone on here is entitled to an opinion. My opinion is that for someone who's father was terminally ill would I have made the decision to stay away from him any longer then needed no... in my eyes she's made some decisions I personally would not do. That does not mean we are evil tatters who lack any empathy for her situation. Nobody but her knows what's really going on but I'm merely commenting on how it's being portrayed on instagram which is her own doing!!

And that’s your opinion- but the rest of us can have ours without you telling us we must know her or be related to her? You can’t say ‘we’re all allowed an opinion’ and then as soon as people have different ones to yours accuse them of ‘coming from her camp’. Bit of a weird thing to say just because you have a different opinion to someone.

But it was the legal bit to say she was actually married, not the pretentious party is Adare that backfired badly when her Daddys passing took priority and she couldn't brag the way she wanted. One thing that will always stand out about her was when they picked up the hired "Range Rover" to go down to Adare and she said " Oh, I do love a Range Rover". I mean seriously, a dearly loved family member coming near the end of life and your on insta telling all your fans you do love a Range Rover. All just to brag!

Yes and her post was about her husband and their first dance on the actual day. How do you know her daddy didn’t want the wedding to go ahead? I think it’s unfair to comment on someone’s behaviour when going through something like that. When my own daddy was dying I did some questionable things but I was in denial and already dealing with grief so to me if I acted like normal then things would go back to normal. What do you want her to do? Never talk about her wedding because her daddy passed? It won’t bring him back and she can’t go back and undo the wedding. Maeve has done some things I don’t agree with but I wouldn’t begrudge the girl the wedding she wanted because of the circumstances

Visiting is still very strict, especially in cancer hospitals and wards. Normally there is one nominated person due to covid. I don’t think anyone can really judge how anyone deals with such an awful situation it’s just an awful time for them all.

Turns out that some Queens do quit…..

Some of her connections are defending her on here?????!!!!!!!

That’s really weird to suggest that just because we have sympathy for her we must be her friends and family. Some of us are just displaying our decency- how on earth does that mean we must know her There’s clearly a few people on here that do know their family, knowing the funeral details etc. But it’s a bit of a stretch to say that people showing sympathy must be ‘coming from her camp’. You don’t need to know a person to be able to feel sorry for them when someone they love dies.

Redmama said:

I don’t even feel bad for her re her dad. She had a wedding with her dad, she had a lovely dress etc. This entire thing is for show and Instagram likes. There is literally no need for it to happen when they’re married already other than for online validation. I do hope her dad is ok, I just don’t feel sympathy for her when this is a situation of her own making.

Christ what a nasty way to think about life. Lucky for you it seems like you've never been in her situation. I'm sure her dad won't be far from anyones mind on the day. If she can afford it and wants another wedding day good for her, not my style at all but am looking forward to seeing the glam over the weekend.
