Helen Skelton, Richie Myler?

Cannot seem to avoid this story popping up on my news feeds. Feel extremely sorry for Helen with her young baby + 2 other children and coping with her husband leaving and starting a new relationship 'immediately'. There's a drip feed of information on a daily basis but the latest revelation about his 'new' partner does not look good.
Helen seems to be trying to cope but it is a lot for her to deal with. I hope she has lots of support with good family and friends around her. Richie Myler has shown little respect for Helen or his children and I hope his 'new' partner does not live to regret starting a relationship with someone so heartless.

YABFU.

If you feel extremely sorry for her, maybe stop adding to the social/media intrusion.

This, with bells on.

She’ll be absolutely fine in the long run. He on the other hand will always be a twat.

Absolutely this!
It's so weird to be bothered, let alone start a thread about it.

Maybe stop reading the vile daily mail gossip page OP.

I agree op, and any man that leaves a woman with young kids is a bit of a knob

musicalfrog · 04/05/2022 15:47

First I've heard of it, didn't even know they were an item.

If you feel sorry for her stop gossiping about her

The woman he started "seeing" recently left her husband. I think both of them got caught by their spouses and are stuck with each other. Have you seen the pictures of them in the papers with faces like fiddles? They met when Helen was pregnant and I bet they started messaging, it got out of hand, he wanted attention because his wife was busy with the children, and on it rumbles.

They have both found their level with each other. Their spouses are way above both of them. Myler can't string a sentence together. Perhaps he was resentful of Helen being intelligent, professional, successful. Can't see what sort of career post-rugby he would have, he's hardly pundit or reporter material. Maybe she is his pension pot.

My thoughts exactly. They look really miserable in these pictures. Doesn't look like a new relationship to me. I bet he got caught and Helen decided to kick him out. Proper twat he is.

Perhaps you are on the wrong news feeds, OP.

This thread is the aibu equivalent of the “Saw blue flashing lights on the estate, hope everyone’s ok?” posts on local Facebook groups.

These two have appeared in the news again this week on holiday in Cornwall. What a horrible pair they are. Fully deserve one another. At least they are not making their former spouses miserable now.
