Reality show on our street!

What would you think about this scenario?

20 year old woman starts seeing a guy 9 years older and six months later is pregnant, gives up the idea of studying and becomes a SAHM, now has three children the eldest is 6. They just recently got married and spent thousands on an Instagram worthy show at a stately home.

They spend hundreds on photoshoots and the youngest child who's just turned 1 has had so many designer outfits too many to wear. They post dozens of pictures, the eldest boy has long hair in a man bun and occasionally a ponytail and a fade style like Erling Haaland and he's got the model poses off perfectly.

There's been endless baby showers, gender reveals and kids birthdays all done with party planners.

Just before she started seeing this guy he's posting pictures on Instagram of him and his mates rolling joints and moaning about the woman who's just jacked him in.

Now the woman's posts are all about being a "wifey" and his about "my woman". He's a machine operator and their pictures are like the Beckhams.

I suppose I was going to post it in aibu to wonder where the money's coming from as I thought it dodgy but though they look happy I was thinking she's been groomed.

He could have just met his match though.

I'm probably rambling. I'm not jealous before anyone says that but a lot of us are curious watching this reality show over the road.

You need to get out more. Like actually leave your street and go out out.

Each to their own

tbh I get ur point but this is the new age!

She has 3 kids and is only 20? Was this with her current partner? Bit confused as that makes her having her first child at 14?

I'll spell it out for you.
She met him at 20, now has 3 kids, the oldest is 7.
So how old is she?? Gwan, give it a try!!
You can't be rubbish at both maths AND reading, surely

Drug dealing probably

WandaWonder · 21/09/2023 02:00

You sound way to invested in this, this is not normal

PyongyangKipperbang · 21/09/2023 02:03

Oh everyone would be fascinated.....dont be so judgemental about the OP!

My mother moans like HELL about her near neighbour being a gossip "Oh she needs to know everything!" She played merry hell a couple of weeks ago when the police came to my parents house and Neighbour was asking me why when I went round. (They witnessed an assault, police were taking statements). But as soon as something happens Ma will say "Oooh I'll ask Doreen, she'll know!" as she is just as nosey.

Of course we would want to see it, whilst at the same time saying "ooh how trashy". Human nature isnt it?!

Mammyloveswine · 21/09/2023 07:39

Op you sound judgemental, nasty and jealous! Of course his insta from 7 years ago and before kids is going to be very different!

Get your own life!!

PurpleWisteria1 · 21/09/2023 11:46

Wow. What a truly horrible person you are @PorridgeOnToast
I hope one day someone makes you feel like shit for no reason.

“This family is very friendly and pleasant to everyone. They just live life on Instagram.”

Which you know how?

jazzyfips · 21/09/2023 11:50

I couldn’t care less about this. I don’t do instagram either.

Spa7tak · 22/09/2023 12:01

Exactly, I like a wee rant myself but I wouldn't put it on here.
