Your Dad’s crushes

[IfUCantDance]

There was a fun thread a while back about your mum’s crushes over the years so I thought I’d start one for your dad’s. My dad (born mid 50s) has fancied over the years:

Agnetha from Abba
Kim Wilde
Whitney Houston
Meg Ryan
Leslie Ash
Jennifer Aniston
Celine Dion
Sally Phillips

Michaela Strachan

Daryl Hannah and Pamela Anderson

@HPandthelastwish Oh yes to kids TV presenters! I’m sure mine had a soft spot for Anthea on Blue Peter…

Blythe Duff from Taggart.

The horse trainer Venetia Williams

(to be fair, she is exceptionally stylish)

Sophia Loren, Gina Lollobridgida

@LieutenantJumboJr Baywatch on a Saturday tea time, takes me back. Jet from Gladiators always a favourite too.

@User2847929 Love this! Not your typical pin up

Mainly the neighbours (pre Internet) then anyone who would have him. 🤡

Michelle Pfifer and Kate Bush.
I know this because if anything came on the tv or radio that featured either of these women my mum would make us turn it off 🤣 and then wang on about how she didn't know what my dad saw in them because they looked like an alien/sounded like a cat being strangled

@Thatcastlethere My mum used to slag off Anthea’s hairstyle 🤣

My dad is 83 and has only ever admitted to Brigitte Bardot. No idea about my mum's (she's 78). My 56 year old brother's crushes have included Kate Bush and Helena Christiansen.

Jamie Lee Curtis!

And also any woman with a pulse!

My dad fancied Sally Webster out of coronation st.

Our house mistress at military boarding school, we called her Masher!
My Dad liked a strong woman!

All of my friends dad's fancied Jet from the Gladiators.

(And the boys at school, teachers, friends brothers and every bloke I ever spoke to in the 90s) 🤣

Shirley MacLaine, Debbie Harry and Carol Vorderman but only when she was on Countdown, he never got over her image change 😂

I love this! 😂

Sophia Loren
Any South American Miss World contestant
Nicole Sherzinger

Anita Harris

Brigitte Bardot

Racheal Riley

Princess Grace

Princess Diana

Sophia Loren, I think.

Oh, and Joan Collins. They're the same age.

My blonde, blue-eyed mother couldn't look more different to those women

Golden Hawn and Jane Fonda.

He had a type 🤣

Debbie Harry
Julie Christie
Jane Fonda
and in a niche move, Anne Doyle, ex RTE 1 prime time news presenter 😂

Gosh I find it weird that pp's Dads discussed fancying other women with them. They must have lived in very sexually open homes.

My dad was fond of Anneka from Challenge Anneka, apparently she had a nice bum.

And goldie hawn
