What's some juicy gossip that you can't share irl but can share with nosy strangers on mumsnet?

Oooh, are her initials CT???

You can't? Really? 😂

Early days for us yet but it's been fun discussing it and roleplaying 😊

Omg PLEEEEEASE share. My life is miserable

I wonder if we know the same person? I haven't met the new man yet, but his profile appeared on her FB page a couple of months after Hubby moved out.

She recently told me of an earlier trip where he (the new bloke) had gone away with her while she was married.... and it was supposed to be for other reasons.

Did your friend tell her spouse to move their pets or she would get rid of them?

very difficult to remain on friendly terms with her. Feels all pre-organised.

Ha ha 😂...and your sons!

A woman I work with seems to be going through some sort of mid-life crisis. We are all worried about her and have tried to talk to her but she just shuts it all down.

October last year she announced her husband was ill and was waiting for a diagnosis. By November she had left him and moved into social housing (she had owned her previous home).
Began sleeping with one of her clients. Spent thousands of pounds on plastic surgery for teenaged daughter and for botox/fillers/tattoos for herself.
Started dating a few different men at the same time and constantly showed us all the expensive gifts they bought her.
Started becoming unreliable at work, calling in sick or just not showing up at all, leaving halfway through the day or just not coming back from lunch. Eventually told us that she didn't want too many hours because it would affect her universal credit. Why or even how she could claim UC I don't know.
Then she announced she had a boyfriend and it was true love. Last month she moved in with him, after seeing each other for only 4 months. But the worst thing is she has kicked her kids out of their home.
She dropped her 13 year old daughter off at her dad's house with a bin bag of her things and told her she was living there now. She kicked her 18 year old daughter out and told her to find her own place or move in with her own boyfriend (who is also a student and living with his parents). I spoke to her 18 year old the other day and she says she hasn't seen her mum in 2 weeks, she (P) never replies to her daughters messages. She just seemed absolutely broken when she was telling me.
Her new boyfriends 12 year old daughter was then kicked out and told she is not welcome at her dad's house. P was genuinely pleased with herself when telling me this.
She's kept her social housing home (despite no one living there) and is still claiming universal credit even though new boyfriend is a high earner and she is capable of working full time.

It's all just so ridiculous and awful. She's a completely different person to how she was a year ago.

My ex-best Mum friend’s DH confessed (or bragged?) to my DH on a night out once that he had shagged one of the other school Mums from their DCs class back in the day. They were both single, so nothing untoward, but my ex-friend is the kind of person who would be furious if she ever found out and wouldn’t be able to get over it very easily.
DH only told me this after she stopped talking to me!

A relative of mine was much admired by Adolf Hitler.

Omg lol 😆 😂 🤣

Probably not a secret.....who the song "Toxic" was written about..?

I know a man who arrived in our town ten years ago from SA. He has since installed himself with three separate recently divorced women, each of whom have three children. He appears to move on when the settlement money runs out 😯 A sort of hobosexual ambulance chaser....😒

The head at my ds school is shagging the deputy head.Neither are single.

I read that post knowing she was a hair stylist, it's only when I saw your post I realised she nevet actually said she was 😂

When DD was a teenager she was really upset as one of her closest friends had started sleeping with her very recent ex. I reported the friends mum for benefit fraud (which was true). The mum couldn’t work out who had reported her. She had to pay a lot of money back!

Not JM?? 😞

My 30 something PFB is pregnant with a much wanted honeymoon baby. She doesn't want to announce it generally until she is post 12 weeks.

I've spent the last 3 weeks away with various friends and family members absolutely lying through my teeth when they ask for news of her and her new husband

Tell me you're a hair stylist without telling me you're a hair stylist

An Italian foreign exchange student came to our town with a school trip. When she left she found out she was pregnant. She had the baby in her home country and put it up for adoption. It was quite a scandal for her at the time as her family were very religious - fairly sure she didn’t have much choice.
I know who the father was but he knew nothing about the whole thing. I see him occasionally and he is a decent guy but he has no idea he has a child who lives in another country. He has a step kid who he treats really well and I just know he would have been a good dad.

This sounds exactly like my not so 'D'B and his new partner. I wonder if it's them?

Seriously, you should be contacting publishers. It's a very alien world to most of us. People would love reading exposes of the rich.

Aww that is adorable

She said he was a nice man and not an asshole, so that excludes Andrew.
