Seriously, why is the media getting so bloody worked up over this? The DM in particular is practically orgasming over every tiny little detail.

She's a nobody, she's not important. She's just some workshy, over privileged waste of space who's only claim to fame is being the Duchess of Camebridge's sister. But boy does she love to milk it. All the things she could have done with that fantastic education and she's done sweet FA!

AIBU to wish she'd go away and the press would stop going on about her? What is the point of her?

Op, you clearly do give a shit, and a bigger one than most of us, and if you read your op you actually sound really jealous and bitter throwing out insults at her.

Why do you care so very much?

PeanutButterBunny · 20/05/2017 13:46

I think you sound like a sad bitter woman, OP. Not her choice the media covered her wedding in a big way. Let the woman enjoy the day without spites.

PeanutButterBunny · 20/05/2017 13:46

Those page boys outfits are appalling. They look like something from Victorian times.

And I am sure she doesn't give a fuck about your opinion :)

RoseandVioletcreams · 20/05/2017 13:49

I think you will find all media is reporting it.Its nice to see something happy and postive in news for a change, light relief

LineysRun · 20/05/2017 13:51

Yes, it's all a bit arriviste Victoriana meets the 1950s.

Who even invites their BIL's brother to their wedding?

I have been to a number of weddings were in laws have been.
I like my in laws, including my BIL. He and my PILs were invited to the celebration of my sister's wedding (wedding was abroad sp no ceremony) and my sister has been invited to events of my BIL's. We actually all quite like each other!

Hulababy · 20/05/2017 13:55

So much for not caring -yet obviously looking at some pictures. What I think you mean is that you would prefer not to be interested, but are actually interested enough to look and comment, but only want to make negative comments.

Is kate a bridesmaid? Her dress is horrendous!
I thought the same. Definitely not going to upstage the bride in that bridesmaid dress. It's very old fashioned looking.

LineysRun · 20/05/2017 18:31

BBC News - 'and Mr and Mrs James Matthews emerged, man and wife'. Eeeew.

BandeauSally · 20/05/2017 18:37

Ok so it's only me that didn't realise that the Spencer Matthews being discussed as James Matthews' brother is actually that hideous creep off the made in Chelsea show!! Shock pippa what on earth have you married into?? Is his brother as creepy as him?

No. But he's just playing a creep on MIC. He's a stockbroker himself.

Given that James has been pursuing Pippa for ten years or so apparently, so before Kate and Wills, I think she knew exactly what she was marrying into.

PacificDogwod · 20/05/2017 18:45

Surely it should be 'husband and wife' or 'man and woman'?
'Man and wife' makes no sense on any level at all Confused

I may be befuddled as we are having prosecco Grin

LarrytheCucumber · 20/05/2017 19:08

Those knickerbockers are um...interesting. The v sign boy will love those pictures when he's in the Bullingdon Club. Start as you mean to go on and all that.
The little girls look sweet.

LiviaDrusillaAugusta · 20/05/2017 19:08

Man and wife is how they phrase it in a church wedding. 'I now pronounce you man and wife'

LarrytheCucumber · 20/05/2017 19:09

Are there any pictures of Carole Middleton?

stopfuckingshoutingatme · 20/05/2017 19:15

Personally I can't wait to see the pics Grin

Nowt wrong with some mild celeb following (mild being the operative word )

londonrach · 20/05/2017 19:21

Totally agree. My mum just mentioned it. No idea why dm so interested.

BuzzKillington · 20/05/2017 22:18

There was no way we'd have been pronounced 'man and wife' - it's one of the things you specify. It's as archaic as promising to obey.

wizzywig · 20/05/2017 22:20

The evening menu came up as a notification from the telegraph newspaper as if its some kind of breaking news.

MsJolly · 20/05/2017 22:36

Kate's dress is hideous. Vile colour that doesn't suit her. The material around her boobs is cut in a really unflattering way making them look all droopy. She looks very matronly. No one will be talking about her arse upstaging the bride!!!

Absolutely loved the boy with his Vs though. And loved the photos of George having a tearful tantrum and Kate giving him a right telling off but in as inconspicuous manner as possible-the look on her face is priceless!!! You can tell she's thinking you little fecker-behave!!!

AmIthatbloodycold · 20/05/2017 23:53

Not too fussed about pippa Middleton either way, but Derxa that pisses me right off.
