Pregnant and engaged, according to the press, good luck to them.

Can't believe anyone would shag Boris.

She must be in it for the money.

Poor woman

Engaged but not yet divorced? Classy Grin

Why cant people just be happy for herConfused

Noodlenosefraggle · 29/02/2020 18:03

she has free will and normal intelligence. His history is public knowledge. So she's got all the information needed to make her decisions which I suppose we should respect.
This. She knew what he was like, as did his previous wife. She put up with him for longer than his first wife did and she was a highly intelligent professional woman, as is Carrie Symonds, as is Petronella Wyatt. They dont need or want pity. They know what they did to other women and didnt give a fuck. They dont give a fuck that they have got pregnant to a serial adulterer either.

Shocked I am, shocked!

If they're happy, let them get on with it.

Think people forget Bojo is 55 years old. I know he looks 65 for he's not too old to be shacked up with a woman in her 30's who fully knows what she's getting into.

Which sounds dangerously like I'm defending him. I'm not. He's horrible and the thought of him looming naked over me is vomit inducing.

However age doesn't come into it here, and Carrie S isn't a poor innocent victim etc. I

If it's due early summer (May/early June?) she must be around 5-6 months now.

Didn't hang around did she?

When did he become pm?

PelicanPie · 29/02/2020 18:11

I like her actually. I wouldn’t want to be expecting the baby of a serial philanderer with five children that we know of already, who is over twenty years older, but she is at least a supporter of animal rights and an environmentalist. Perhaps she’ll be a good influence. I do think he could have got divorced first, however.

Hoghgyni · 29/02/2020 18:11

Presumably, as Groomzilla, he will be too busy to remember to run the country for a while now.

SwedishEdith · 29/02/2020 18:13

23 July.

Kateplaysrugbyinmydreams · 29/02/2020 18:15

Oh FFS! I think this is a poor choice on her part and just grim on his part. Wonder if he will ever confirm how many kids he has.

tobee · 29/02/2020 18:15

First night in No 10?

tobee · 29/02/2020 18:16

No my maths doesn't work I think!

Defenestratethecat · 29/02/2020 18:19

No, no, don't look at Sir Philip Rutnam resigning over Priti Patel's behaviour, look at the lovely news of a new baby and a wedding. Tra la la.

TheSevenDials · 29/02/2020 18:22

How many does that make? Does he even know...

Imagine using your child - before it's even been born - to bounce a toxic story off the Sunday front pages. Imagine being that Dad.

TheThingWithFeathers · 29/02/2020 18:27

Ah well, good luck to her. Don't envy her.

GinnyStrupac · 29/02/2020 18:29

Not a surprise, and I agree that the timing of the announcement is a very deliberate and convenient distraction.

GinnyStrupac · 29/02/2020 18:42

The number of threads about this is now almost rivalling the alleged number of his children.

Shoveoff · 29/02/2020 19:00
