I'm surprised they stayed in Adare so long. If it were me I would want to go home asap to spend time with my Dad.

Also worrying about having no conditioner is she for real?!

They may have had many close calls before, I know as a family we did and you get to the point you aren’t rushing about like in the beginning. She mentioned being allowed to see her dad for two hours (week of wedding) I know in some cancer wards only one visitor is allowed sometimes two. So her mum would definitely be there, they may have to all swap about.
The morning of the wedding she had no conditioner, not today.

I know where I would have been spending precious time over tbe past week or so. I wouldn't have been having a party when my parent was lying in a hospital bed possibly coming to the end of life. That's just me though, my priorities would be very different to Maeves.

I know it was the day of the wedding that she had no conditioner and it makes it no less ridiculous that she was stressed out about this! Her Dad is seriously ill and that is what she is worrying about!

If it were me I couldnt go ahead with a big massive wedding knowing that a family member was so sick. I just wouldnt enjoy it and wouldnt look back on it with fond memories.

Everyone deals with grief differently though, I would presume they contemplated postponing but they would no doubt lose a lot in deposits as would their friends in flights, accommodation etc. I’m sure she felt guilty the whole day, I can’t imagine how hard it must have been to put on a brave face

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.

 

[TikToc]

Restrictions are still in place in hospital. In my case with my mum its 30 mins one person. And only twice a day. They will ease this as it comes nearer to end of life. People deal with things in different ways. No one size fits all.

 

[NoMoreSpotlight]

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.

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.

Surely if her hair was curled and pinned at the rehearsal she didn’t need conditioner the morning of her wedding?? I don’t follow this one, just looking at her story now. Maybe she did fresh curls that morn too? I actually couldn’t care less but like spotting holes in a story

l agree. No one knows what Was discussed and this could be what her dad wanted

I suspect Instagram might be her way of distracting herself and trying to cope with the family situation. Praying for the family.

 

[AlriReggie]

Ive complained about her plenty recently, but the more I’m understanding about her dads situation, I think alot of the dramatics were a way of distracting herself…. She seemed fairly flat the week of the wedding and even more so since! I’m sure like everyone else would, she’s struggling massively to deal with her dad being sick! I’m sure she would have preferred to have the big wedding with him there. She did say before the Christmas wedding that she was doing it for family reasons so presumably she never thought he would make it to the big shindig!

I think you're right. She's on the verge of tears in those stories tonight. Her poor dad obviously doesn't have long left. Hope they can all get into daisy hill to see him

 

[Nipslips]

it’s just occurred to me. She’s Anna bleeping Delvy

 

[MaryJones1]

I feel really mean for slagging off her dress and bow now.
She is having a really hard time of it. I'm sure she doesn't need any grief off strangers on the Internet. I noticed yesterday she said about people messaging her to say they didn't like the bow! Who would actually message her? Maybe she read it on here but didn't want to say that.
Either way, her wedding and future anniversaries will be tied up with the thoughts of her dad bring unwell and millionaire or not that's going to be hard. I wish them all the best

 

[Jackjack38]

I feel insta is a distraction for her, she seems all over the place. I wish her Daddy the best.

I think so too. She was so emotional in the week up to the wedding understandably so given that her Dad is so unwell and wouldn’t be able to attend. You wouldn’t wish what they are going through on anyone & many of us will have been there. There is no right or wrong way to deal with it, you have to do what’s best for you to get through it, one foot in front of the other.

 

[EllsBellsWells]

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 tit 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 tit 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

 

[mayobridgeceltic]

I heard her father passed away this morning RIP
