I mean this just seems wrong on every level. Just because you can doesn’t mean you should .hmm

" What was it the first attracted you to multimillionaire BE?"

Nico97 Fri 03-Apr-20 12:55:53

Ha ha - bet somebody's had it in for him wink

OMG! Okay ... that's enough internet for today then.

Absolutely Gillybob and others !

How confusing for the poor baby . Daddy is probably older than Great grandad and your sister is older than daddy . grin

My thoughts are these, 102 is no time to be taking on a stroppy teen and equally a difficult teen should bear in mind at 102 a parent is not going to feel like being a taxi service, particularly when it's a late night event. On the plus side pocket money shouldn't be a problem.

For Bernie he can look forward to the fact that he may not hear well enough when offspring reaches teen years and their responses are either rude or mono syllabic, in a similar vein he can adjust his hearing aid to phase out loud, monotonous music.

There you have it pluses and minuses.

I wonder whether they are planning a sibling shock

The ultimate way of proving that though you are old, been pushed out of the industry you built, you are still potent, and a force to be reckoned with.

I won't speculate about BE's relationship with a stroppy teenager as he is very unlikely to be around by that time.

Jane10 Fri 03-Apr-20 13:36:08

Yuk. Just yuk. The things people will do for money.

Haha Greymar Caroline Aherne would have had a field day with this?

SueDonim Fri 03-Apr-20 13:48:17

My 92yo mum commented on this to me with the remark ‘I hope for his wife’s sake that it’s a virgin birth!’ gringrin

Kalu Fri 03-Apr-20 13:48:30

Oh! That gives me the creeps.

Hope she doesn’t try for an heir and a spare !?

I just looked up a photo of the happy couple, Fabiana is head and shoulders and then some taller, she is 44 and first child - that’s leaving it a bit late, risky too. It’s much more about what she wants, he has been there plenty of times before.

My own opinion, the last thing on earth I would want is a baby and I’m nowhere near 89.

I wrongly assumed he was another Corona victim.

OH drove one of the daughters who had a major meltdown because Daddy had taken the ????? jet and she would have to travel in the ????? jet. A real first world problem. Hopefully she will share nicely with the new arrival.

Wonder what the situation would be if had an older women than himself

gillybob Fri 03-Apr-20 14:37:16

Well she wouldn’t be pregnant that’s for sure Michael grin

paddyanne Fri 03-Apr-20 14:55:49

What turned my stomach was him telling reporters they've had lots of time to "practice" .Its just cringeworthy

Just yuk

gillybob Fri 03-Apr-20 16:14:26

Well that’s me having nightmares tonight that’s for sure .

JenniferEccles Fri 03-Apr-20 16:23:50

Mother Nature really slipped up didn’t she?

There have been instances of children of 12 years old having babies, and now we have the other end of the spectrum courtesy of B.E !

Was just thinking about what to eat tonight but suddenly not hungry any more.
