...according to the mirror, her son’s surgery took place in the US 🙄

No mention of Thailand, or that it was illegal everywhere else, or that Thai law was changed after they did it. Just happy families all round.

(The article is originally from 3 weeks ago, though updated today, but I’ve only just seen it. Apologies if it’s been posted before)

She's always said it was Thailand and they changed their law to make it illegal before age 18 shortly after.

That story makes no sense: it starts saying 11 years ago Jack was 4, then further down it says Jackie is 25. Hmmm.

Oh I meant to mention that, AncientLights - it’s a typo for 21 I assume

So why does the Mirror say America?

This thread won't last long....

Maybe The Mirror isn't very good at fact-checking.

I thought it was just inspired by it? It was dreadful I only managed 10 mins of it
