Photo posted of children without my consent

[OneCalmReader]

Hi,
I recently posted about my Narcissistic MIL. She had got angry about me not posting a photograph of her hijacking my two DDs first look at my wedding. She ruined part of my day by sabotaging a first look between my DDs and she can’t seem to understand why I am upset about it and she decided to call me horrible names and say things to belittle me.
Well, yesterday she changed her profile photo on Facebook to the photo I never wanted to post. It wasn’t supposed to happen and she had access to it from a private album of our wedding photos. Where do I stand with this? I have reported it to Facebook for violating my privacy as I haven’t given her consent to post an image of myself and my children, but I haven’t heard anything back yet. I’m just not sure how to take further action.

Relevance? 😔

You all sound a bit batshit tbh.

You lost me at "content creator".

I don’t understand this post at all so maybe your mil doesn’t understand what you mean either. Can you try to explain it in plain English.

Oh god are you the one in love with your "guy friend"?

Who gave her the private album?
A few days ago her son wasn't speaking to her, and you had her blocked, how did you see her profile photo?

What did the Content Creator do, for their money?

God 🙄

Content creator? Oh dear.

Maybe she just thought you were being ridiculously precious and over-the-top. If she doesn’t spend much time watching Americans posting their weddings on Instagram, then she probably didn’t understand the concept of a “first-look”. It’s only a thing on social media after all.
Is this how you want to begin your MiL/DiL relationship? What does your DH think about his mother’s actions?

His mother

They’re getting triggered because it’s a load of silly nonsense. Content creator? First look? Get over yourself.

It’s HIS mother so, if he agrees with his wife that his mother is out of order, then HE should speak to her about it.

Just saw your previous threads, as you wanted us to do.

Is this the man who calls you a 'slag'? Are you sure you want to be married to him?

Well it's his mother and possibly his children.

I probably wouldn’t do it at a wedding, but I take great joy in trying to crash and walk thru people using up space in public places to film ‘content’, especially if they seem to get extremely annoyed at this.

This crap has ruined nice views on holidays and sights.

FB used to be good at taking photos of children down 8f their parents objected, aren’t they now ?

Can someone link the previous threads please.
I am curious......

I would just let it go op
The more you get into resisting your very annoying mil, the more it will become like a stone in your shoe.
Be happy that she’s a deeply unevolved woman and that you can move beyond this because you’re better

I couldn't help but try and find out what a wedding content creator charges. This one is £695 for HALF a day. Next time I see a thread of someone struggling for money I'm suggesting this, all you need is an iPhone.

My sympathy has never been with Facebook (Meta), a profit-hungry, ironically faceless, data-mining tech giant. That has changed having read the OP's post, which is an illustration both of appearance mattering more than anything else, and the desire to be in control beyond what is reasonable.

Man I love the internet. It never gets old 😆

I hope this is made up. If not, your MIL probably thinks you’re ridiculous.

Surely the sole role of a ‘content creator’ (🤣🤣) is to produce said content to plaster all over social media? Otherwise what is your ‘content’ for? 🤣

I’m not sure why people are triggered about having a content creator at my wedding
Triggered?
What in earth are you talking about?

No child wants a content creator capturing their first look at their mother in her wedding dress. That sort of batshittery only comes from a mother obsessed with SM.

I feel really sorry for your dd - and not because your MIL posted a photo of her.
