Inspired by a post on Facebook.

Who do your parents irrationally hate?

My dad hates Lulu. Can't stand her voice. My mum hates Michael Flatley as apparently he loves himself!

My mil is literally obsessed by the Beckhams, she can’t bear them for some reason. She is in her late 70s and reads the sun and Mirror though. Every time I see her she’ll say something like-did you see what that Victoria has done? Like she knows her personally and she lives next door or something.

My dad seems to hate so many...Davina, Phil and Kirstie, Al Murray, Lorraine Kelly, Adele, Kiefer Sunderland, anyone 'mouthy' or 'common'....eek

they hate carol Vorderman. That she hasn’t aged gracefully and has taken charge of her looks and fitness. Probably don’t like her intelligence either

Oh and they hate Megan Markle like I assume all daily Mail readers are taught to do

My mum died in 2000 so long before the scandal broke but the only person my mum ever said she hated was Jimmy Saville. She hated me watching Jim'll Fix It. Maybe she got creep vibes from him. She used to say he was a dirty old man but back then how would she have known?

My dad always hated Richard Branson and Gordon Ramsey.

MIL hates Meghan Markle. She used to hate Kate but now Kate is an angel and she denies having ever disliked her 🤷🏽‍♀️

My Nan really disliked Jimmy Saville, long before his heinous crimes came to light.

She used to say with a canny look ‘there’s something not right about that man’ and ‘he’s a real bad’un’
She was literally repulsed by him and would turn the tv over if he was on it.

She was an excellent judge of character.

Gary Linekar
