My teeth grind when she uses inappropriate words to describe her situation and she comes across as really uneducated because if it.
‘Horrific’ is one such word. Her situation is not by any stretch of the imagination horrific. It’s unfortunate, it’s distressing, it’s sad but it’s not horrific.
Horrific is being stoned to death. Horrific is being torn apart by wild dogs. Horrific is being slowly tortured to death by your parents (RIP baby Arthur).
Divorce can be distressing , it is not horrific.
I feel the same. It is an unfortunate, frequent, distressing, mundane occurrence, which she could have had a productive dialogue about. Yes, she feels replaced and discarded, that she has sacrificed her career and youth, but she could use her platform in a productive way that might have opened up another career path for her, instead, no one is going to go near her with a 10-foot barge pole. She is trying to make sure that she takes IG down careerwise, perhaps in revenge for feeling she sacrificed hers. She is diminishing him, trying to make him seem like less of a prize in the hope of frightening BW off. How can she not know that harming IG's career, harms the girls' standard of living and her own? I do have sympathy for her situation but not when she conflates it like this and behaves in a way that is harming her children in the guise of protecting them.
God, the horror of baby Arthur, I weep for that poor little boy
Can you imagine being AE stepmother, you wouldn’t stand a chance . It seems her dad had the sense to realise just how awful his daughter is ( which is incredibly sad ) and hasn’t let her jeopardise his marriage, although I bet she tried her hardest
I can't possibly know, but I wondered if AE's dad didn't walk her down the aisle because AE hadn't invited the stepmother. She said he refused to the day before, but that opens up a whole other set of questions. Her father would have had to have booked tickets and fly in from the UK and if he refused the day before?
I have had 3 industrial dehumidifiers blasting in my house for the last two weeks with another week to go and am confined to my bedroom because it is the quietest place in the house. I am bored shitless and as you can tell, I am asking the important questions.
TLDR. Just a load of rambling boring thoughts of mine sparked by your more interesting comments. Sorry, meant to quote individually.
