I don't blame her, he has made a show of her.Bad enough leaving for OW but all over the news world wide.

But if it was me,I wouldn't give him or her the satisfaction. I would post the picture to friends instead

LottieJenkins · 30/06/2013 14:25

PH and his wife have got a son aged about eleven. I have totally gone off him now! I think he is an arsewipe of the highest order!

expatinscotland · 30/06/2013 14:26

It's really no one's business but their own. He and his midget both have a son each. She dumped her husband, too, and he ain't maintaining a 'dignified silence' about it.

Sparklingbrook · 30/06/2013 14:29

It's all very Sad. Wonder what Mel & Sue and Mary Berry make of it all.

While I'd want to retaliate if she does stuff like this it keeps it in the public eye and risks her son being teased at school. That's who I'd want to protect so I wouldn't do it. I'd hurt him in the divorce courts with a good lawyer and hopefully in time meet someone else.

TheRealFellatio · 30/06/2013 14:32

I agree with Sparkling. Childish, catty and undignified. I don't care who did what to who, it's just tacky, tacky, tacky to do this over Twitter.

squoosh · 30/06/2013 14:32

Well Mary Berry said 'boys will be boys'.

I'd imagine* Mel & Sue have a different take on it.

*as I don't actually know them I really am just imagining.

TheRealFellatio · 30/06/2013 14:32

Sometimes I feel too weary and bewildered for the modern world. Grin

squoosh · 30/06/2013 14:34

Have a lie down on the chaise longue Fellatio and dab this cologne soaked handkerchief to your brow.

TheRealFellatio · 30/06/2013 14:36

Well I am laying down, with a glass of red wine acksherly, but I will have the wafty hankie as well, ta. Grin

Sparklingbrook · 30/06/2013 14:36

I hope Sue Perkins is suitably unimpressed.

Haha that's brilliant. It won't end well but frankly they are insensitive and crass to continue their affair so publicly and in such a disrespectful way.

SirChenjin · 30/06/2013 14:41

Whilst I normally favour the dignified silence approach, his wife is bloody funny in her revenge Grin

squoosh · 30/06/2013 14:44

I think she's quite witty too!

noddyholder · 30/06/2013 14:44

Why should she remain silent when he is parading around with teh OW? Never seen his show but saw him on morning tv and pmsl at the thought of him being sexy. Overweight over coiffured and stuffed into a pink shirt yuck!

peggyblackett · 30/06/2013 14:45

Fair enough IMO. If that's what makes her feel better then she should go for it.

fedupofnamechanging · 30/06/2013 14:53

I think that people who cheat on their spouses and break up their children's stable families should feel too ashamed to post vomity pics on twitter. Seeing as neither of them do, I think it's fair enough if the wife wants to take a swipe. Someone taking the piss does tend to take the shine off a new shag love!

The wife comes across (to me at least) as far more funny and interesting than either PW or his new woman. Hope she finds true love with someone more deserving of her.

5madthings · 30/06/2013 14:57

Oh dear, I can see why she is doing it and it us funny but not very nice for their child to have it all over twitter etc :(

He is the arse tho.

I am in the key his cockmobile flash car and put salt in his yeast to fuck him up camp. Such a massive, massive public betrayal is awful and I would want to make him suffer if I am totally honest.

With sverything else in my life I am very straight laced and stick to the rules but messing with my marriage and my children publicly? No. I wouldn't be able to stand it.

I would avoid Twitter though Grin

DumSpiroSpero · 30/06/2013 15:11

It seems that at best he's royally insensitive and at worst he's rubbing he's rubbing her nose in it, while she's been left to pick up the pieces, so I can understand why she reacted.

It is childish & undignified (especially the picture) and she's probably already kicking herself for doing it without anyone else jumping on board.

I'd be amazed to find someone that can claim to have never had a mad moment in the wake of a painful break up - I know I can't.

ClartyCarol · 30/06/2013 15:32

Hmm, she's showing him she's still bothered. I've probably got too much pride for my own good, but if I was in her shoes I'd want to come over like I couldn't give a shiny shite about him anymore, or what he does or who he sees.

RedPencils · 30/06/2013 15:39

Dignified silence and take him to the cleaners. Dish best serves cold and all that.

Take the piss in private.

Sparklingbrook · 30/06/2013 15:40

That's just it Clarty. Ignore him and his poncy dinner.

Remotecontrolduck · 30/06/2013 15:42

She's quite funny but she's running the risk of looking very bitter. I think she should maintain a dignified silence and leave them to it, I suspect it won't last long!
