Whose life is it anyway?

I totally agree with you grace !!!!

Just give these women some space to live there lives as they choose, and in peace

I agree, Esther Rantzen should be ashamed of herself, let them get on with their lives and have a bit of privacy.

when did ER ever saying anything worth hearing? Even the Childline stuff wasn't her own work.

Yes, leave these brave women alone. It's a compliment to the relationship she had with her husband that Christina is able to move on and find happiness again - she obviously had a great relationship to want to find someone as special again. Esther Rantzen has struggled with her own issues when she lost her husband, but there's no need for her to try to resolve her own feelings by examining those of others.

It's human nature to seek comfort and solace with someone who knows the one who's been lost.
Everyone is different and there but for the grace of God etc....

Can't say anything publicly about this situation for obvious reasons - but Gransnetters, you're wonderful!

Isn't strange how some people can't let other people be happy? And we all seem to agree that how we live our lives, provided it is within the law and not hurting anyone else, we are entitled to find what happiness we can. I believe the expression is 'live and let live', so let's just ignore the press and wish those who make another life for themselves after any tragedy, the best of what life has to offer.

(((hugs))) to you and yours ga

As said previously - what business is it of the press, commentators or us.

Good luck to the "girls" if they have found another love - shows how much they loved before.

Agree with everything above. All the best to anyone who finds love second time around.

Can't think of anything nicer after so much tragedy.

What right has ER to comment on anyones life lets these women get on with their lives after so much heartache and distress surely she must understand how they feel after loosing a loved one.The reporting of the private life of these women are a total invasion of their privacy and should not be allowed under any circumstances.If they where Mrs Bloggs from down the road no one would be interested it is only the fact they stood up to be counted on behalf of their brave late husbands that this has been brought into the media.

....and, glammanana, these young women have suffered so badly, haven't they. The narrow-mindedness of people in the media, such as ER, sum up the smallness of their own worlds.
I wish all of these young people the very best of love and luck in their lives. They deserve the very best.

Did not read the ER article because I can't stand the woman.
However, maybe it was not too diplomatic a choice of Mrs. Schmid to sell herself to the Hello Magazine.

With regard to Kirian Curley, once you go to court, ( another brave choice )
Your affairs become public.

And to [GA]

I agree, johanna. Of course they both deserve happiness, but human nature being what it is, they were always going to be criticised by some just for being in the news and not just going away quietly.

Why can't folk (the media) just let other folk be happy and live their lives as they wish? Best of luck to the two young widows and hopefully we will read no more about them from now on!

Guess how ER makes toast .. she breathes on it!

You can't help wondering if there would be this tiresome speculation and comment about widowers. I hope both young women and other young widows find a happy and fulfilled future - with a new relationship/partner/husband if that is what they want.

Like it, specki4eyes!!
