Can we discuss Geri

I never knew she started having a relationship with Christian Horner whilst his long term partner was pregnant.
And that Christian left his partner for Geri whilst his long term partner was heavily pregnant.
I've only found this out by seeing the story about Christian's text message scandal on the internet.
This is truly shocking to me.
Is it really true? Or has it been misreported or exaggerated online?
I know things get misreported online. But if it's true, then this will really badly affect my opinion of Geri, who I've always really liked a lot.
Secondly, I googled images of Geri, and I noticed every image of her shows her wearing white clothes. White dresses. White suits. White tops. White trousers. White skirts. White knitwear. White ski gear. White swimsuit. It struck me as a bit odd, even possibly showing a bit of an obsessive trait - having to wear the same colour all the time. Does anyone else find this a bit unsettling?
If anyone on here is lucky enough to know her, is Geri ok?

@Bestdressed karma really does not exist. In your mind, maybe. As a tangible concept? No.

How can it? If karma exists, why are evil people in prison who've murdered children (for example) alive and well? Being rehabilitated and released into society?

So no. It's really not a thing at all.

Regarding the OP, dunno. I read the reports but only in a detached way tbh. I don't know him or her so it has zero impact on my life

I believe in KARMA ok

I’d suggest Geri is not the problem in the scenario you’re describing

I don't understand. If someone could enlighten me - does it have something to do with washing white outfits?

Oblomov24 · 02/03/2024 16:31

She made her choices. Once a cheat, always a cheat. What did she expect. No sympathy. Zero. None whatsoever.

LookingGlass99 · 02/03/2024 16:32

I've only just noticed she seems to wear white most of the time. I'm far too messy and clumsy 😂
Maybe she just likes herself in white, who knows?
I know she got with CH when he was already married and just had a baby, I strongly disagree with what happened regarding that situation, I'd personally always be wary of the nature of a man who could do that and would wonder if he would do the same to me one day.

I imagine she's completely humiliated. She's sort of reinvented herself as lady of the Manor and quite upper class. I imagine her embarrassment over this is off the scale. Some will say she stole another woman's man and she's getting her just desserts I suppose.

I'm on the fence. Part of me thinks she must have wondered if he would also cheat on her one day. Part of me feels sorry for her having to endure something so awful so publically.

I’m suggesting your colleague is somewhat crackers
I don’t think Geri is killing the planet one dress at a time or singlehandedly bankrolling Ariel

Oh get you, wise ole sage

Shadowonasun · 02/03/2024 16:39

Why is everyone slagging off his looks and going with the tired 'I wonder what attracted her to a multimillionaire ...' trope? Am I not seeing something, she's an absolutely average bog standard looking woman in every way, but some acting as if she's some great beauty. Now Beyonce-Jay Z I can understand, she's beautiful and he's ugly as sin. But this dude and his wife? They're well matched in looks department.

And in sleezeball department too. Yes, he's a bigger dickhead for cheating on his pregnant partner - that's true, but let's just not pretend she's all squeaky clean and innocent in all this. She knew he had a partner, she knew said partner is pregnant. A decent person would go and bag a single millionaire, not fuck a taken dude.

This is where her self respect disappeared..

Edited

I said I bet ?

And I bet she isn't as I bet she doesn't give a shit

User442681bgt · 02/03/2024 16:41

Her eyes are not smiling - she is processing.

Zone2NorthLondon · 02/03/2024 16:42

You lose them how you found them I Am loving this as a quip😁
➡️in that case I’d lose mine in a heaving studenty club

HornyHornersPinger · 02/03/2024 16:43

What's with her one-eye squint?
She reminds me of Madame Gazelle when someone mentions glitter...

Don't let him near Po Nana (sp?) on a Monday night!

CuteCillian · 02/03/2024 16:46

She hasn’t actually done anything bad or wrong.
She openly pursued a partner about to purposely become a parent in a relationship with the other parent.In my world that is wrong.

Charlize43 · 02/03/2024 16:47

Oh Jesus! One of my co-workers has just posted this on the event group chat!

Little Geri Horner
Sat in the corner,
Killing frogs.

Things are going get nasty. This Australian Event Manager - she's looking absolutely furious!

TheNinny · 02/03/2024 16:49

@uhtcearean agreed, that staged kiss then direct look to the camera was complete cringe 😂

SealHouse · 02/03/2024 16:51

Zone2NorthLondon · 02/03/2024 16:43

It looks to me like she's been doing some serious crying - her eyes don't normally look wonky

They kissed and she looked at the journalists straight after..as in did you catch that. But it’s just a snapshot, so who knows. He certainly doesn’t look like he’s been crying.

FebruaryIsDoingMyHeadIn · 02/03/2024 16:52

When he left his pregnant partner for Geri, a vacancy was created.

What kind of a man walks out on a pregnant long term partner?

Obviously a spineless weasel and a man not worth having.

I hope CH gets his just desserts.

StaunchMomma · 02/03/2024 16:55

Aaaaand surprise, surprise, she marches into the paddock hand-in-hand with him at today's race.

SO embarrassing.

As for the 'but he split up with his ex before they started dating' argument - bollox! They split because she found out about him boffing Geri on the side.

No high moral ground here! He cheated with her, he will cheat on her. That simple.

purplemonkey12 · 02/03/2024 16:57

I always found the wearing white a bit odd because certainly in history of art, it did tie in with virginal/pure/innocent. Geri got together with someone else's guy when that someone else had just been through IVF / pregnancy, so (art) historically would have been seen as a bit of a scarlet woman. So obsessive white-wearing just always seemed strange... Sort of drawing attention to a desperation to be perceived as virginal when tbh that ship sailed a looooong time ago.

Valla · 02/03/2024 16:59

Spot the difference.

Poor women with arsehole husbands. Feel less sorry for Geri because Karma.
