What’s up with these people

What about his dad, has he been invited, also look on the bright side you will never have to babysit in the future

I am absolutely sick of having the Beckhams and Peaty and other so-called ''celebrities'' and their gormless childish squabbles rammed down my throat!

Who gives a hoot?!

Same when it comes up on the internet in big capital letters ''So-and-So PREGNANT'' ''So-and-So DIVORCES and REMARRIES the same person for the 14th time'' ''So-and-So SEEN SHOPPING IN TESCO'' ''So-and-So BREAKS SILENCE'' How can they ''break silence'' when they're literally never silent?!

The mind really does boggle at the best of times!

Brooklyn does come across as nice but not exceptional or even mildly competent in any area....perhaps he is easily led.
Maybe Victoria ans David were too controlling.
Who knows the full story.
It is sad that that can't just get along and grin and bear each other a few times a year like a lot of families.

Exactly. Family dynamics change once a son/daughter marries. Another group of people have to come into consideration when family events and times like Christmas come along and you find yourself having to share and compromise oover how things were done previously. As MarieElla says, just grin and bear those times because if you don't then that's when the cracks start to appear and those involved take sides.

It's the latest fashion only because Brooklyn Beckham and Adam Peaty enjoy the over privedged cult of celebrity we know about it
I know so many women ,who are estranged from their children and agonise over it .
I wonder if social media has popularised it .

His previous life does fit with him now being within the very wealthy Ramsey family. He left his partner and mother of his son to go with Holly Ramsey. Who knows perhaps his mother stays in touch with his previous partner and her grandson who Peaty abandoned when the boy was just two

Adam Peaty co-parents his son with his son's mother, that's not abandoning him.

How can anyone really believe anything they read from journalists these days? I see a story about the two individuals mentioned one minute as it pops up on my computer newsfeed and then see a subtle change to it later in the day as another writer gives their slant. It's the same no matter what the reporting - people are just looking for headline material and will write trash. Basically, I'm saying that the full/real stories are not in the public domain, and that what we're asked to believe can be light years away from the truth. Perhaps you can tell I'm sick of untalented journalists writing about people and events as though we're actually interested.

I am fed up of so called celebrities .Their talentless offspring think they have a god given right to be rich and famous by doing very little to earn it.

Gracious! Only one of my daughters had a hen party. It never occurred to me to be invited; I would have felt very out of place.

Maybe these men have been coddled and petted all their lives ... Along comes a different type of woman and they are overwhelmed as to why they are treating them different ie ignoring them .... men are rather stupid and think with a different area of their body .... ie ... their Penixxxxx...

We have a daughter in law that we love, but she is very jealous of our relationship with our son. She is very bossy, dictating what I should wear for their wedding. The mother is intensely jealous of my husbands success. I think they are a lovely family, but rough around the edges. I too was left out of the hen party, all sorts of things. I don’t say anything because I want to see my granddaughter. I don’t want to fall out with them either.

They don’t sound to be a lovely family at all.You must be a saint😇

My daughter and my DIL all had weekends away or fun nights out on the town with their friends and family members within their age groups for their hens. My daughters had bridal showers/meals that were inclusive of myself and their MILs but these were not hen dos. The hen dos were rightfully for their peers. As I said, I find it strange for MILs to be included in a weekend away or night out for the bride. Not every event is for everyone and I certainly would not dream of being offended by not attending a bride’s night out at this point in my life, much less whinging about it publicly.

Ours just had evening meals, not parties.

Terribly proper 😁

Thank heavens none of mine had them I can’t think of anything worse really

I went to DD's hen do as did her future MIL
Then I went to future DIL's hen do.
(Both years ago.)

Neither were these extravagant weekends away they seem to go in for now.

Hen parties are supposed to be where the bride lets her hair down mostly with friends. I’m not sure why lately there is a trend of MILs or even mums attending or expecting to. I find it strange tbh. It never occurred to me to intrude on my DIL’s hen do, and we have a great relationship.

Can’t be bothered to get upset about other (especially rich kids) problems, it’s their business no idea who Adam Peaty is should I know him, is he famous ?

Yes!!
Bluebelle I thought you were a swimmer!

🏊‍♀️🏊‍♂️ Adam's after you 😁

I swim in the sea for fun but I don’t follow olympics or sport very much so never seen or heard of the guy

Do we know what goes on behind closed doors?
Is it anything to do with us?
Do we actually care?

We don't personally know any of these people or what has caused these estrangements. There is no point speculating.

You don't know that.

From reports in the media, Holly invited everyone to her hen party apart from her future mother-in-law.
She also disapproved of Adam's mother's choice of wedding outfit and offered to buy her something else.

Mother looked after Adam's child from a previous relationship but has now allegedly been banned from seeing the child.

Mumsnet don't mince their words, some have labelled Holly Bridezilla.

Oh! Adam Peaty is marrying Gordon Ramsay's daughter.

At least Adam Peaty has achieved something in his life. Brooklyn still seems to have no discernible career and has just gone from being kept by his parents to being kept by his wife. It's a bit late to decide he wants nothing to do with them.
