See what I did there 😉

So, Geri's in Bahrain holding hands with him. And all we can think is "WE KNOW WHAT'S BEEN ON THAT FINGER!!!"

I always thought she'd do the "Fighting bravely through the tears" schtick.

Excellent thread title there!

I've not watched any qualifying today but will watch the race tomorrow.

Will the Horner Gate detract from the race? I'm thinking all this has come out at the start of the season in a hope that it will get lost in the news? (Apologies if this has already been suggested.)

Geri did make a vacancy available when she married him.

The race was today! Due to Ramadan starting next week.

But glad you liked the thread title 😉

I'm SO disappointed in Geri. She's a fucking icon!!!

It was nice growing up with girl power - well, the reality is so depressing - Mel B got beaten, VB cheated on, and now the best of the bunch, Geri, standing by this smarmy coño...

Geri if you are reading this, LTB!!!

It was not Mel Bs fault she was beaten ffs. The implication is there. Not everyone can just leave the second something happens. It says more about circumstances than people seem to be able to realise.

And yet here you are, incensed by us and criticising us...

I'm not incensed by you at all. It's an observation. Some people just don't have the emotional intelligence to think that others might be different from them.

Has anyone seen them on forumla 1 Netflix when they have santa in the house?

We're doing what we feel is the best for us right now. I'm sure you have the emotional intelligence to realise that.

It's not about money though. It's about identity. She has created this identity where he is her "Knight in shining armour" (a literal quote), and she is now the Lady of the Manor, wearing white, posting her glamorous, perfect life to Instagram.

If she walks away from that, she has to a) admit it was all a sham, and b) come up with a new identity. When she clearly really, really likes this one.

This, absolutely 👏

TheChosenTwo · 02/03/2024 19:56

Can someone tell me what he’s done?!
I did have a quick google of his name and loads of Grand Prix stuff came up all on tabloid websites which are impossible to read because of the amount of spammy
advertising!! I think I saw he’d been texting someone? Ffs I’m so out of the loop 😂

Us posting or not posting literally has no impact on your life. Why are you so incensed by our choices.

@BirthdayRainbow please don't waste time trying to make something out when it isn't there - as I already said - it's obvious I'm a fan and not criticising her - I'm criticising the status quo. It's depressing for women.

Mel B is a survivor. I understand why VB stood by DB, despite everything. The circs are totally different to Geri. But if Geri stays with stickyfinger, I will be really disappointed.

RedBellEnd · 02/03/2024 20:37

I just don't think I could find a man attractive again after that. Let alone the trust issue.

I actually think it was shit of him expecting her to be 'on show' today

Calling Cretin Porner 'Marque 2' makes him sound like he has a pedigree when all know he is a low down dirty dawg....

I am so disappointed that Geri has gone down the 'stand by your man' route - that was so embarrassing to watch, very similar to Vicky B with David after the Rebecca Loos stuff came out. Maybe she's in shock and denial, and her true feelings will surface over the next few days.

It is so disappointing to see so many women criticising someone for doing what they feel is best for them right now.

I would be really interested to know how many women state that 100% they would leave a cheating husband and then don't when he cheats.

Geri leaving or staying literally has no impact on your life. Why are you so incensed by her choices.

People stay for so many reasons and rarely is it because they are any of the negative descriptors posted.

If you think this is just a guy cheating, you haven't read the messages he sent.

TeenLifeMum · 02/03/2024 21:48

You never know what goes on behind closed doors. Maybe he’s forgiven her in the past. There will be far more to their relationship than we know from tabloids.

TeenLifeMum · 02/03/2024 21:54

Also, he was cleared of inappropriate behaviour and the media are unable to verify the authenticity of the content of the messages (from the independent newspaper). We know that F1 is very political and it could be someone has it in for him and he actually didn’t do what he’s accused of. I realise that with his history most of mn believe the reports as gospel but the media have been used before to spread convenient lies about others.

Daffsinfeb · 02/03/2024 22:35

He's got a teeny tiny one hasn't he. What is that thing?!?!😂

silverthimble · 02/03/2024 22:42

There may be an element of what goes around comes around but I did feel for her today, it looked so cringy her being marched around with him looking smug. Don't understand why she didn't just stay away
