I mean, her mum is nice looking, for sure. But Michelle is next level!

Yep, she was pretty then and still is.

Still looks totally different.

You keep deluding yourself that she has not changed a bit though if it makes you feel better hun. Smile

Did you not read where I said that she has changed with age, style and surgery, hun?

I said she does not look like a completely different woman. She is not unrecognisable.

We have to remember that people are comparing very young pictures of MK to her adult self. She looks what, about 17 in Coronation Street there? She is now 37ish? She has aged 20 years since then. She'll look different either way, obviously surgery has changed her further, but aging has too. She looked really pretty in the clip, I could see a little more resemblance, than in the photos; she didn't need the surgery.

Hmm yeah, fair enough.

I wouldn’t engage @BatchCookBabe. But then apparently I’m stupid and married to a dickhead, so don’t take my advice!! 🤣

😂 Bless you. None of us are perfect. Not like @Allthatwegotisthispalebluedot and her Stepford husband. 😆

ConsuelaHammock · 23/03/2025 13:05

She is naturally pretty. She’s not naturally beautiful. She’s had a LOT of help.

I don’t think you have any idea about my standards. We’re strangers on a forum and you’re making an assumption based on an isolated post. I find that a massive stretch and I find it sad that you need feel the need to question the value of my marriage as a result.

@Allthatwegotisthispalebluedot

I am making a judgement based on the information you have given me, which is that your husband comments negatively on the way women look. I am very glad my husband doesn’t do that because men who do that are very small and very sad. I am glad the men around me are better than that.

Your husband may be (allegedly) utterly perfect and wonderful with not a single flaw, 🙄 but you are coming across as really smug and judgemental @Allthatwegotisthispalebluedot .

And I find it hilarious that you think all the men around you are soooooo perfect!

😂

Every man I have ever known says the odd shitty, rude, sarcy, or negative thing now and again, that gets under his woman's skin/pisses her off. And most women do the same!

You have ZERO idea what your husband (and all the other men you know who are sooooo perfect!) are like when you're not there, or what things they say to their mates/colleagues/peers, or how they speak about women. The way you are painting your husband as this oh-so-perfect, shit-don't-stink, kind of 100% perfect man who never puts a foot wrong, (and never criticises women!) is just cringeworthy! 😬

Also, as a pp said, it doesn't sound like your marriage is as perfect as you're painting it, (or your husband) with how you seem to fantasise about Bruce Springsteen, and say he is 'the most attractive man in the world' to you. You didn't say you USED to think so, you said he IS the most attractive man in the world. (To you!)

@Allthatwegotisthispalebluedot 9.52am

I am so so so so glad I have never heard my husband express a negative opinion of another woman’s looks. I think my vagina would clamp shut for ever and never reopen.

My DH is a better man than your husband @gillefc82 for this reason. I hope your husband looks like a young Bruce Springsteen (the most attractive man in the world to me!)

As a pp said, does your husband know you fantasise about another man? Not really adding up, and gelling with your claim that your man is sooooooo perfect is it really? Wink

And your vicious personal attack (at 12.55 just before my post here) on a poster who you were attacking (who has called you out,) is showing that she has hit a raw nerve!

I don’t think my husband is perfect. I mean, he isn’t 1975 Bruce, is he?

I just know that he does not make comments about the way women look and for that I am very thankful. Like I said, I feel like that’s a very very low bar though. None of the men in my life behave like that and if they did they probably wouldn’t be in my life much longer.

We should definitely expect better of men. Soz if that makes me smug.

Everyone uses that photo to show that she looks like a completely different woman. It's an old photo that is not the most flattering.

Of course she has changed with age, style and surgery, but she is not completely unrecognisable.

Video of her first Corrie appearance.

She was beautiful then and she is beautiful now.

Yep, she was pretty then and still is.

Still looks totally different.

I am very glad my husband doesn’t do that because men who do that are very small and very sad. I am glad the men around me are better than that.

But the judgement is based on one snapshot, so it’s a very limited, ill informed and incorrect one.

Does your husband know you fantasise about Bruce Springsteen when you’re having have sex with him? That’s not an assumption. That’s a judgement as you’ve said yourself “he’s the most attractive man in the world to you”. And yes, I know you’ve only said that in one single post, and I know nothing else about you, your marriage or your husband, but you’ve provided that one piece of information, so it must be correct yes?

As I said, you don’t know about my marriage or my standards or my husband and can’t possibly leap to that conclusion from a single snippet of information from one conversation during our 15 years together. Please stop reaching.

I don’t think she does. The old photo you’ve used there is quite an odd one imo, I was trying to post one earlier where she’s younger and did her make up different, but she definitely looks like the same woman I used to watch as Tina in Corrie. Not denying she’s had surgery etc, I’ll bow to your superior knowledge on that but you’re being a bit OTT saying she looks like a completely different person.

You should have gone to Specsavers, 👓 She looks totally different from when she was first in Corrie.

Incredible genes??? Not really @namechangeagain4

She is clearly quite stunning now.

But as has been said, her looks have been enhanced hugely, via surgery, fillers, and botox. She even has a new nose! Her original face is almost unrecognizable!

Pic 1 is when she first appeared on our screens/came into Corrie.

Pic 2 now. Quite the glow up.

She was a cute girl, but nothing outrageously gorgeous. She is all make up, procedures, and fillers now.

Sorry to burst your bubble.

It’s a little sad you can no longer see the family resemblance with her mum which is clear in her old photo shown here. Surgery has changed her looks from being plain ordinary looking

I just think some women on here have extremely low standards and that makes me sad. I am glad my husband is just nicer than the men I read about on here. Perhaps if multiple posters are telling your husband’s behaviour is unacceptable, there’s something in it?

Just a thought!

Sorry, I’ve already had one back on forth on this thread with someone who took exception to my DH simply recounting his experience of his night to his wife, not doing that again.

Personally, I find the term “vagina clamping shut” more distasteful than what he said but hey horses for courses!

She absolutely wasn't ugly before, obviously. I meant it in general terms.

The concept of treats is also quite dodgy. It's just food. Take it or leave it.

I would consider a take away as a treat too, because we rarely have them.

Movinghouseatlast · 23/03/2025 11:44

Exactly, that's what Im saying. Working off the calories from the odd Chinese takeaway in the gym when you are very slim is pretty disordered. Shes under huge pressure to do that.

It is, but easier than the average person when the gym is in your own home, and you have the means for a personal trainer/nutritionist etc.

She has a very good plastic surgeon you mean?

I caught a bit of that programme she's in at the moment about Brits in Oz - and it was jarring how silly she looked in the 1950's clothes and waved hair with a face full of fillers!

Movinghouseatlast · 23/03/2025 11:44

SomethingMorethanthis · 23/03/2025 11:41

I heard her once say that she still has treats and the odd Chinese take away etc. She says she will just go to the gym the next day and work out, and eats very healthily the rest of the time.
