To not feel very sorry for woman stuck in Turkey.

I was reading about a woman stuck in Turkey. She was there with her partner who was having teeth implants. So they got drunk and she fell against the glasss shower screen in the hotel. And it smashed. So they did a runner. Police chase. Got caught put in jail. Told they owed £15k or else. Sad face. Hmm. Though it does seem very steep for a shower screen.

Of course I feel sorry for her, she's in fucking jail, it's not as funny as you think it is.

But she's stupid and common and drunk, she deserves it right, hahahahaha.

@Soal yes she does deserve it. But actually I don’t think she is in jail. She just can’t leave Turkey (despite trying to, illegally). She is the very definition of a chav, and I hope she learns from this.

Just seen the picture - oh dear - the classic 'Turkey Teeth'.

They sound delightful - not. I hope they pay up. If they can afford Turkey Teeth they can pay the required sum. I'm sure there's already a Go Fund Me, though.

I am not saying it's right, but the report I read said she and he took drugs, trashed the room, and smashed the shower screen. It depends on how much damage there is; plus, if the glass screen damaged the shower and tray, it may need a whole replacement. Add into that cleaners and workmen's fees, and you would be talking about a big amount. Yet again, the British giving the British a bad reputation.😡🙄

Not to mention all of the lost income in not being able to sell that room to guests for however long it takes before the money is paid to fix it all.

Plus this whole escapade probably isn't the best PR for their business...

Those teeth 😮😂... why do people do this!

That’s what I was thinking - they need a prison sentence just for those 🤣

TheNightSurgeon · 20/06/2025 09:51

I saw the family talking about it on tiktok, they said they are having to look after her kid, it's the first time she's been abroad since becoming a mum and they got bit drunk and did a few bits of damage to the room, and then got scared and ran away, the said the mafia was chasing them and extorting money from them.

They painted a picture of a poor young mum not being able to handle a drink and accidently damaged a couple of things and ran away out of fear. I don't believe a word of it.

She was only in jail for 1 day.
She's just in Turkey now, apparently she can't leave until she pays the money, her family raised the money but her lawyer said they're looking for too much so she didn't pay it.

Smart lawyer. He’ll probably argue to get her fine reduced to £5k, and charge £10k for his time!

ResidentPorker · 20/06/2025 09:51

She’s in jail because of her own actions. Maybe if she stopped spunking money on fake teeth and lip filler and holidays, and focussed on working and taking care of her daughter, she wouldn’t be in this position. She got twatted and smashed up someone else’s property, then did a runner. No sympathy.

Well she's already spent half of it on hotels and living over there.

There is, it’s on the story link I posted. Has raised £700 somehow.

PinkyFlamingo · 20/06/2025 09:53

Not sure why they need a Go Fund Me... But they probably don't have insurance!

Funnywonder · 20/06/2025 09:59

Those teeth! Wouldn’t know whether to talk to him or play a tune on him.

No sympathy here. None. Absolutely appalling behaviour. Her poor daughter. And to the poster who says it’s not funny, the poor woman’s in jail - I, for one, am not fucking laughing.

nomas · 20/06/2025 09:59

ScoobyDoesnt · 20/06/2025 09:30

I saw this story too, totally laughable. And she’s set up a go fund me to help with her costs! Which some people have been stupid gullible enough to contribute to.

Story is here

Good to see the Daily Mail doesn’t just ‘show off curves’ but also ‘celebrates veneers’.

ThisIsMyYearToFindMyself · 20/06/2025 10:01

No mention of the man. Is he still there too?

ToClimb · 20/06/2025 10:02

Surely, she has travel insurance which would cover her personal liability? This is ridiculous. I think let her stay in Turkey, we have enough idiots over here already!

Tiredofwhataboutery · 20/06/2025 10:02

I think it’s bonkers she had the money should of paid the fine a sucked it up/ appealed from the uk after. I’d assume fine would get bigger over time if the hotel owner is waiting on the money as the room will be out of commission so accruing damages at a rate of x per night.

VWT5 · 20/06/2025 10:05

I really wish in UK we could have a very active No Fly List - to absolutely refuse flights out of UK for people who have behaved like this. One incident - and you go on the list, that’s it.

Sorry, but have had a good number of depressing first hand experiences, been impacted myself and watched others adversely affected by Brits behaving shockingly like this and specifically in Turkey.

Been on an aircraft where the Captain has refused to take off with some Brits until they are offloaded, Brits threatening the aircraft will “go down”, Brits being physically removed from hotels, Turkish staff in high-end hotels looking on in astonishment at situations they say they have never seen before and so on and so on

Womanofcustard · 20/06/2025 10:05

£15,000 is still cheaper than it would have cost for implants in the UK!

MyUmberSeal · 20/06/2025 10:10

What an absolute scuzzy tramp. No sympathy. You make your bed…..

He sounds like a great catch on the highly intelligent variety of speciemen

My dentist calls the colour lavatory bowl white...

lol

I have full dentures (I have bad gums , its a family thing).
When I went for them I was shown a chart of "teeth" with the colours .
White was there of course but I said I don't want them, they look like Turkey teeth . She laughed and agreed.

Purplebunnie · 20/06/2025 10:14

No sympathy. It's people like this who give the British a horrible reputation abroad.

NamedChand · 20/06/2025 10:16

It’s so so confusing and no I don’t have any sympathy 🤣

grumpygrape · 20/06/2025 10:20

Apologies if I've misread but I thought shd was quoted as saying
'I know I shouldn't have mixed alcohol and anti-psychotic drugs'
There are just so many legal wrongs and moral wrongs without even starting on the teeth and lips.
