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?

One thing I have noticed.

I have never liked Beckham.
His smile is so smug.. Every photo and he's gurning like the cat that got the cream.

Horner has this exact same grin in the photos.

Just, oh so pleased with himself!
His loyal wife literally hanging on to him, same with Victoria and David after the Loos' scandal (though that was the only time Victoria used her teeth when smiling 😁
Geri's smile is tighter than a Duck's bum)

Not a hint of meekness from Horner in the circumstances.

Apologies if it's been mentioned but the standard is reporting that it was Christians mum, geri s mil who encouraged this?

Revenge served cold perhaps?

I heard this Spice Girl song on radio 2 this morning. Brings back happy memories 😊

To be honest, in her position, unless I was absolutely 100% certain I was going to chuck him, I'd probably do the same. If I decided to stay it would look better, if I decided to leave I could say I'd had more time to think about it. And in the meantime, I could claim I wasn't upset. Being absent is probably worse from a PR perspective.

I imagine she is in that initial state of panic and thinks it's easier to go than not. He will have said it's all rubbish and she is looking at her whole life changing so for now is showing up. She could be like Coleen Rooney and just suck it all up. Dominic West's wife is another example. Staying for the family sake.

Yes I imagine there is too much anxiety to be able to think straight to start with. Just turn up - do your bit and think it through properly later. When anxiety and shock clears and when you have some space.

I do feel for her as it is all played out in public but she knew what/who she was getting involved with.
