What a stupid boy. Worth 60 million and doesn’t get a taxi. I just don’t know how he’ll come back from this latest fiasco (drink drive car crash hits 3 year old).

Boy?

He's forty fucking two.

And he is a dickhead.

I hope the 3yo gets better quickly.

Fruitbat1980 · 18/03/2018 23:19

Ditto.

Ant and Dec are annoying idiots.

RoseWhiteTips · 18/03/2018 23:23

They still think they are in Byker Grove.

RoseWhiteTips · 18/03/2018 23:24

Ant has issues for sure.

BuzzKillington · 18/03/2018 23:24

The 3 yo wasn't injured and was taken to hospital as a precaution.

I wonder if he was over the limit from the night before, like Kirsty Gallagher recently.

NotAllTimsWearCapes · 18/03/2018 23:24

Come back in what way?

Fruitbat1980 · 18/03/2018 23:28

I know he isn’t/ wasn’t everyone’s cup of tea but no getting away from fact he’s one of the most highly paid/ popular presenters on TV. I just can’t see how he can stand on SNT next weekend and be jovial after this. My moneys already on holly willoubhy being drafted to stand in next week.

I doubt he will be on SNT next weekend. I was reading today (before this accident) that they've already shelved some of their upcoming projects...

littlemisscomper · 18/03/2018 23:37

He won't be back on BGT. I wonder who they'll use instead?

Ariesgirl1988 · 18/03/2018 23:38

erm what exactly was the point of this thread? whats it to do with us what his problems are? blimey what a waste of a thread Hmm

GabsAlot · 18/03/2018 23:38

he hasnt been charged yet-he also didnt hit a 3 year old it was another car

MistressDeeCee · 18/03/2018 23:41

People have done this and far worse and it's not ended their career

Fruitbat1980 · 18/03/2018 23:41

Airiesgirl think maybe your missing the point! You could say that about 75% of mumsnet threads. Perhaps this thread isn’t the place for you?
I just don’t think he’ll be back, off to rehab? Who knows. Feel a bit sorry for dec!

CircleSquareCircleSquare · 18/03/2018 23:42

Wow.

notangelinajolie · 18/03/2018 23:54

I think that is the last we will see of Ant and Dec. What a loser.

RunMummyRun68 · 18/03/2018 23:56

She will have been terrified, as will her parents and other road users!

He needs to be off the tv now....plenty of new talent coming through to take his place

I hope little girl is ok

Ariesgirl1988 · 19/03/2018 00:01

@ OP I'm missing the point? erm who starts a thread asking if they're being unreasonable thinking ant will struggle to come back from this? seriously people get a life its not our business its down to him to sort his problems out! hopefully he didn't hurt anyone is more or less my thoughts on the topic but not something to start a db about Hmm

MotherforkingShirtballs · 19/03/2018 00:03

Sorry ariesgirl, OP obviously didn't realise that the Thread Police were on duty tonight Hmm

WashingMatilda · 19/03/2018 00:04

aries you've commented twice on a thread you claim to have no interest in. Hmm

YANBU OP

RunMummyRun68 · 19/03/2018 00:05

Is it not our business?

Could have been any one of us injured.... maybe it was an MNer and her dd in the other car. I'd say it's all our business when it comes to drink/driving and the ongoing adoration of that person who committed the crime

MotherforkingShirtballs · 19/03/2018 00:11

I don't think he'll struggle much at all, his management team will be PR-ing the shit out of this as we speak. There'll be the repentant statement - "I did a stupid thing, I'm utterly apologetic". Then the grand gesture - 3yo and her family publically showered with extravagant gifts/money. Followed by the return to rehab and return to TV after he's discharged.

Drink driving is unforgivable, he could have easily killed someone by getting behind that wheel. I feel bad for Dec who is going to have his career fucked up by all of this, I feel bad for the family whose car he hit, and I feel bad for his loved ones who are seeing him sink further into destructive behaviours.

It's Dec I feel sorry for. If Ant goes down, he's going to take Dec with him, from the point of view of Dec's career being gone I mean. One half of a duo. I don't think it could just be 'Dec'.

retirednow · 19/03/2018 00:22

Who cares, he's just out of rehab, should know better and could have killed someone. I don't think we'll be seeing him on tv for a while.

MrsMaxwell · 19/03/2018 00:30

I feel sorry for Dec, he’s destroying his career too and at some point will need to distance himself.

Drink driving ffs when he can get a cab and highly publicised just out of rehab so shouldn’t be drinking anyway.
