I saw that photo on twitter and thought it was very funny, very witty. Of course she's bitter. I think it's worse when wronged parties pretend they're fine and dandy when they're screaming inside. Far better to unleash a bit of the anger in a safe way. Even better if you can take the piss in a witty, clever way like this! And as for the person who said people can't help falling in love with someone else etc, what rubbish! We're all in control of our actions. A man who walks away from a fifteen year marriage with a child involved, is because his head is turned by some other younger (but not prettier) totty is irresponsible.

"Did anyone see the TV advert for his Baking show, a few months ago?

He said that kneading bread was good for getting rid of 'bingo wings'."

I wonder if you can knead bread with your belly? Give it a try, Paul.

it fucks me off greatly that women are always supposed to act in a fragrant, delicate, dignified manner.
It's so fake and dishonest.

Same here, stepaway.

She doesn't HAVE to behave in ANY way. She isn't the one who ballsed up her marriage to run off with a Disney woodland creature. A bit of gentle piss-taking is tame compared to what a lot of us would do in the same situation...

Grin Marmalade.

Anyone got twitter? Maybe he'd like that bit of advice?

Exactly. Keep it quiet and dignified when someone turds on you. It's the ladylike thing to do.

I would think far more of her if she rose above it and stayed silent.

He might be an arse but she is making herself look like an idiot.

His behaviour has been less than exemplary that's for sure.

He used to be a benevolent baking despot. Now he's a sleazy dough manipulator.

It is probably her way of coping.
I wouldn't do it myself, but she is entitled to be 'undignified.
Her ex is a gross and actually believes he is some sex God.
I think he only tweeted that picture because his wife refused to take him back. What a tosset

Why is silence the ultimate goal?

'My husband has behaved like a twat but I'm the better person. I said nothing' Hmm

Bugger that for a game of soldiers.

Much more satisfying if the adulterous git lies awake at night worrying what she'll say next. If she maintains 'a dignified silence' he'll be sleeping fine won't he?

she's suddenly getting a lot of airtime, is his ex wife. couldn't she just lie low like she always did before? unless i am missing something i had never seen her in the papers before.

it makes her look rather daft, imo.

I think leaving your family for someone you've known all of five minutes is hugely undignified and makes you look like a right arsehole, personally.

That kind of behaviour's a lot worse than poking fun at someone who's been unkind to you.

IMO.

Of course she is bloody bitter and she has every right to be, why should she shut up and say/do nothing?
I am another one who hates the whole women must remain in dignified silence when they have been shat on. They were together for 15 years and have a child, so i'm not really surprised she is bothered by the twitter pictures.

But maintaining a dignified silence means that the poor cheating shaggers don't get enough ammo to label a wife as a psycho Ex (and it's no wonder he shagged someone else what with her being so crazy and all Grin )

Do people actually really believe that revenge doesn't make you feel better?

I'd LOVE to be that pious.

I don't even think that it's her that is being undignified, either.

Old Salty Arbuckle is the one.

  1. Runs off with bird who wouldn't look at him twice if he weren't a famous bread botherer.


  1. Tweets about dates with the new woman, despite having a child who can read the Tweets, presumably.


  1. Is a fat, porcupine-haired knacker.

Yeah dignity is over rated, she's having some fun.

However, as a short- arse I wish she'd leave out the pint sized references- she will lose out on an army of um small fans.
