case of him having double standards me thinks!

muriel76 · 30/12/2010 17:58

YANBU, I never comment on articles but I did on this one!!

You have to wonder if he has looked in a mirror lately ie a full-length one!

Saltatrix · 30/12/2010 17:59

Yep and the reporter seems to see it too "Look who's talking: Samantha Brick and husband Pascal, who says he doesn't want a fat wife"

SlightlyTubbyHali · 30/12/2010 17:59

That article is hysterical.
I bet he can't believe his luck having found a woman silly enough to put up with his bullshit and his croissant-gut.

Kitsilano · 30/12/2010 18:01

Misogynist. And a fat, ugly one at that.

here for more people agreeing with all of youSmile.

BalloonSlayer · 30/12/2010 18:06

OMG! The big beer gut and the wee cunty beard . . . policing his wife's weight. Priceless!

oftenpurple · 30/12/2010 18:06

Read that too today and was shocked at his attitude regardless of what he looks like himself. How could you have a deep, loving, committed relationship with someone so shallow?

Janos · 30/12/2010 18:06

Yes, loving the sense of oblivious male entitlement there.

Wonder if Samantha is a MNetter...>

backwardpossom · 30/12/2010 18:06

Good grief. What a prick, I'd be divorcing him.

NewYearNewPants · 30/12/2010 18:07

Talk about beauty and the beast! He is punching well above his weight. He should be kissing the ground she walks on, not dishing out misogynistic ultimatums.

gorionine · 30/12/2010 18:08

Any particular Mnetter in mind Janos?

coldtits · 30/12/2010 18:12

The reason he keeps on at her as if she's unattractive is that if she EVER realises shat she isn't unattractive, she'll leave him for someone nice.

christmasrocks · 30/12/2010 18:14

Had to be the Daily Mail!

Pixel · 30/12/2010 18:17

It's hilarious and tragic at the same time though isn't it? That she actually feels grateful that he treats her like that!

Personally I divorce someone who couldn't even be bothered to shave before having his photo taken.Wink

I was thinking of Bonsoir gorionine...I checked your link and I see someone on that thread had the same idea! :)

He sounds emotionally abusive IMO. Ugly on the inside and the outside.

ILoveItWhenYouCallMeBoo · 30/12/2010 18:23

i would imagine, being the DM that this is all rubbish and fabricated to fill space.

Pixel · 30/12/2010 18:24

Sorry, didn't see there was already a thread.

This is all she ever talks about - look at her blog.

You have to give him a break - apparently he's got a big hanging gut like the excess pastry of an uncooked pie crust because SHE made him give up smoking.

So it's either his big sweaty pork gut pounding into her all night, or his rancid fag berate, yellow fingers and stained brown teeth in her face.....mmmmm decisions decisions.

I think he should man up and get a job that earns decent money if they live in that sort of relationship, that will stop her continually begging the Daily Mail for £500 quid a time stories about her flabby arse.

Shouldn't he be providing for her?

Binfullofgibletsonthe45 · 30/12/2010 18:29

Breath not berate soz

ILoveItWhenYouCallMeBoo · 30/12/2010 18:31

she needs to get a life, without that loser if that is all she has to talk about. seriously. how sad that she has made this her life.

Kirk1 · 30/12/2010 18:38

He sounds like an abusive arse to me. She's slim and pretty, he's a fat ugly shitbag. What is she still doing married to a guy like that? I'd be stuffing my face and making him divorce me, then getting all his money if I were her.

MumNWLondon · 30/12/2010 18:42

Mmmm - well he looks fat himself and its obvious why:

"To make matters worse, my husband is used to sitting down to an elaborate five-course meal twice a day (not to mention those ­buttery croissants and milky coffees for ­breakfast) ? little wonder the fat piled on."

TBH I might have had more sympathy if he had that attitude but worked out and watched what he ate as well. I wonder if she has to cook the five course meals. I don't think I have ever eaten a 5 course meal - whats the fifth course (starter, soup, main, dessert??)

pissedrightoff · 30/12/2010 18:42

Bonsoir was my first thought also, actually it was my second thought.
First thought was fat hypocryte.
