Inspired by DS obsession with Steve Backshall.

He would be off round the world "too busy to do childcare darling", would come home reeking of bar poo, and would insist on taking the children to play with venomous snakes "it won't hurt them if they don't bother it".

I am always stunned that some one with so little talent has managed to sustain a career out of one very bad pop song. And then posting photos from Seaworld. Ewww
How can someone as clever as a Dr stay with him. It must like talking to brick wall.

Peter Andre’s wife is beautiful but exceptionally dull. That must help.

I got tickets to see Coldplay in a few months. My son was desperate to go so I am really pleased someone else has offered to go in my place.

Because he took his daughter to a debutants ball 😂😂😂…..massive overreaction don’t you think!

I can see it reads that way. 😂
They were meant to be separate points. I've never liked the music of Coldplay so was glad not to go.
I dont want to be married to Chris Martin either. Partly because of the debutante ball.

@Whiteflowerscreed - I only managed about 20 minutes of that programme before I turned it off in self defence. I would have strangled Joe if I lived with him.

He is a puppy, no practical help, probably needs to be banned from caffeine.

Classic ADHD

Gordon Ramsay... just a over bearing, sweary controller. *he might be different to his wife.
Martin Lewis. I used to like him but after I read Lad baby's book I don't anymore!
And can you imagine having him check every thing you buy? To see if you've got thr best deal ?.

Vernon Kay. He rose to fame from a reality show (modelling). On a behind the scenes for his radio show, he was eye rolling & complaining about having to interview ‘these reality people.’

Jeremy Vine. Pompous, virtue signalling bore who’d be polishing his penny farthing in the orangery.

Alexander Armstrong. See above 👆minus the penny farthing.

I’d love to be married to AA!

Peter Andre popped into my head immediately. If he was chocolate he'd eat himself. Vile man.

I fancied him so much when I was 12-13, back in the days of Mysterious Girl haha.

Not now though!

Any of them who do impressions of other celebrities. Showing my age here, but the Mike Yarwood show when I was a child irritated the hell out of me. He was shite.

And that bit at the end when he'd say "And this .... is me!" Wow, really, never would have guessed that! And then he'd stand there and sing "You are the sunshine of my life". Oh just piss off, Mike.

Les Dennis used to do stupid impersonations too. Attention seeking twats.

Slightly more current one, yup, Tom Cruise. You'd need to put a cover over him to stop him talking, like my Nana used to do with her budgie at night.

Eiugh Les Dennis.
I lost a bit of admiration with Ama da Holden when she got with him
Thankfully she saw sense and I like her now.

Has anyone mentioned Gary Barlow yet? I mean Yawn! And takes himself far too seriously.

PatrioticPenny743 · 19/05/2025 17:54

Russel Crowe and Jimmy Carr, horrible odious little men imo.

Gordon Ramsey, probably very hyper and always on the go but his dc have done well and he seems to love his wife.

Victoria Beckham, must be hard living with her restrictions on diet

Esp as David himself loves cooking. Imagine watching her eating fish and veg e ery day whilst you tuck into an elaborate meal you've slaved over?

Ben Fogle. Women drooling at every turn.

Actually someone I know went out with him years ago, top bloke by all accounts.

Yes. Misogyny isn’t an attractive quality to many women.

Yes he needs to “button it “ like he told Kemi Badenoch .. cretin

David Walliams comes across as a massive twat too.

I really like him but watching Stacy and Joe makes me think I couldn’t be married to Joe, he’s too much of a loose cannon! He seems lovely but just hectic

Joe?

Charlize43 · 19/05/2025 18:17

Jeff Bezos. Can you imagine how having to spend time with your husband would interfere with shopping and spending his money? I suppose he'd occasionally would want conversation, but sex would be out of the question.

I wonder if everything has to be bought through Amazon?

Should have said BAT poo though I guess bar poo could be a thing.
James Corden would insist on you doing karaoke in the car All. The. Time.

I thought you were saying bear poo in a really posh accent, which I couldn't work out 🤣. I'd love to be married to Steve Backshall. I love wildlife and would definitely go on his trips. Although I feel he'd leave me because I'm not fit enough and I don't think he spends many evenings lazing about eating chocolate.

What has he done that’s misogynistic? Genuinely curious as I’m surprised he invites such strong feelings (on MN, not from you in particular).

Thinking about Dolly Partons husband. Years married, never in any pics with her, let her achieve everything and he is back home probably living well and without any of the drawbacks of fame.

Dolly Parton’s husband died a few weeks ago!

Danny Dyer is vulgar in the extreme. James Corden is a gentleman compared to DD!

Darragh O’Brien or Clarkson - can’t abide either of them! 😡

CherryRipe1 · 19/05/2025 18:32

Ben Stiller. I'd imagine he's manic, hyper, argumentative and vindictive. Not to be confused with Ben Miller who seems nice.
