This comes to you from REDDIT... and WOW.
There are all kinds of ways for a parent to ruin the wedding of their child, but this is one we haven’t heard before. A bride-to-be was all set to marry her boyfriend of five years this June until her mom dropped a bomb that has her questioning things. In a post to Reddit’s “Am I the a-hole” section, the woman writes that she and her fiancé are both 24 and had their parents meet for the first time back in January to start wedding planning.
It seems the bride’s mom really hit it off with the groom’s dad - both of them were single - and they’ve been secretly dating since then. The bride had no idea until her mom called and told her she’d just eloped … with her future father-in-law. And even worse? The bride’s mom told her she should cancel her own wedding now because “it would be inappropriate” to marry her stepbrother! That’s right - the engaged couple are now technically step siblings!
The bride writes that she’s “horrified” by the news and that she wants to “throw up just thinking about it” She called her mom selfish for ruining her life, but the mom turned it around on her! She called her daughter an “ungrateful b*tch” for not approving of her marriage and said she was young and would have the chance to meet someone new, but she’s old and “has to take every opportunity she’s got.” The bride also reveals she’s 12 weeks pregnant and no one knows yet and she asks Reddit if she’s wrong for getting mad at her mom for marrying her fiancé’s dad.
