What's some --more-- juicy gossip that you can't share irl but can share with nosy strangers on mumsnet?

The follow up thread to my one from last year 🤭

All on my (her) side know (or siblings / partners / children) do. On husband’s side he is very short of relatives. Any that there are are way older. So, she might get away with it. Not sure about the actual dad but he has 3 kids of a similar age.

My grandma let slip today that my very boring, very dull aunty & uncle (dads side) are swingers and they have no idea if one of my cousins is actually my uncles. This has only come about because one of them has been diagnosed with a disorder that only mother and father can pass on through a shared faulty gene. They have 5 children altogether and only she has the condition. I was absolutely flabbergasted because they're extremely boring & seem so prudish.

You mean the business computer and telephone are in the garage or the garage is where it all happens?

Thats so sad. Sometimes I wonder if people are better off never knowing x

This doesn't surprise me at ALL.

The one with the multiple wives - who are SISTERS - is the one I am struggling with!

Thank you. Yeah my dad had o neg but DK about my mum. He used to give blood a lot. That's the only reason I know because he said his blood can donate to all others so it's good to donate it.

I DK my own blood type. I don't think it's common to know it in the UK unless you donate or seek out that info? I know I can't donate due to my weight sadly.

Bet they don’t use the same blood group. Or if they do now, it’s a new thing

Friend was going through late father's stuff, found some letters, turned out the dad who traveled a lot had a 2nd family abroad, friend traveled to meet a half brother, hasn't told his own mum about any of it.

Like the plot in a soap!

A close friend of my brother was raised by a man not his father.

His father only learned it was not his son when the son was in his 20s.

The son still does not know the truth.

A close female relative who died recently had an alternative birthday. She always celebrated her birthday in April but it turns out she was actually born in December, the previous year, 4 months prior. This was only revealed when she went into a nursing home and my sister helped her sort out her paperwork. She said it was because she had been told as a young adult by her parents, that no one wants a December birthday. Far easier to celebrate in the Spring. Sis also found her parents marriage certificate from July of the same year…

My neighbour kicked her husband out last summer, they 'tried' again around new year but he was still a dick so she kicked him out again, has asked him for a divorce and is currently in Mexico with him and the kids on a holiday they booked before they split, again.

I'm in touch with my ex MIL.

Exh doesn't know. He's not in touch with her after a huge falling out.

Ex MIL for a long time didn't like me - quite the understatement (so a shock when she reached out).

I think (from biology long ago) that type O is recessive? But much more common? So if person 1 has type O and person 2 has type A, then the child would have type A?

I am AB (mum and dad had A/B) and DH is O, so I think my DC will either be A or B.

if that makes sense!

Omg how do you know?! 👀👀👀👀

Is the headteacher sexy? Whats the husband like?

Maybe she gets off on the head being in a position of power 🤔

They are doing some major roadworks where I live and it’s been going on for weeks. My neighbour is definitely shagging one of the men working on it when her husband is at work.

Wow, but I suppose sex before marriage was not allowed in those days! Did she never twig herself do you think?

I would love a police radio omg - often when I see the police racing somewhere, I feel like it should be public knowledge?!

We need a social media account dedicated to reporting 'why you saw several police cars at x point today'

Obsessed with @Piknik having their post withdrawn 🤭🤭 - was the gossip juicy? xx

A very senior person in my industry had an affair with my friend. He's still married, she's left the industry. It's long over but I still have to deal with him professionally. He knows I know. I know he knows I know.

😄😄😄

I could never support such a situation, I even feel my hymen growing back at the thought of such a gross man.

I picture a greasy haired short man 🤔

I can’t help you with local police but I can offer https://www.broadcastify.com for bushfires and the like.

I have been known to spend a whole day glued to it wondering if my house would burn down. I was so far away that I was sure if I got in the car and drove for four hours, I wouldn’t be allowed in once I got there so could only listen in and text dh.

Which country?
Well done girl, rooting for your freedom! ❤️

Yes! If they died, the job would just replace them anyway

More power to them!

I know why my colleague has disappeared.

She has been suspended whilst an investigation takes place regarding some criminal charges that are due to come to court soon.
I love a gossip at work but can't join in on the speculation so have to pretend to be disinterested. I'm running out of more juicy gossip to distract them with when the topic comes up.
