‘She Cried, Came With No Gift': Bride Calls Mother-In-Law A Wedding Nightmare
A bride detailed how her mother-in-law reacted to her wedding, from refusing to send a card to wearing an identical outfit to the wedding dress.
A wedding can be one of the most beautiful and exciting times in a person's life. Unfortunately, the day proved to be an extremely stressful one for the bride, all because of her mother-in-law. The woman detailed her frustration on Reddit under the r/weddingshaming subreddit, talking about the negative comments she had to face. The post garnered a lot of attention, with many users detailing similar experiences about 'nightmare" mothers-in-law.
The bride wrote, 'She cried LOUDLY the night before our destination wedding about how disappointed she was that her son chose me 'out of all his options.' Then proceeded to not sign the guest book or gift us anything, even a card." She also shared a photo from her wedding. In the image, the bride and groom can be seen posing, with their faces blurred. The groom's mother is standing next to her son, holding his arm. Surprisingly, she wore an outfit that was identical to the bride's wedding gown.
How Did Reddit Users React?
Many people came out in support of the bride and also shared their own experiences. An account wrote, 'My grandma was wandering around my parents' wedding telling everyone that 'today is worse than the day the barn burned down".
'This happened to my BFF. It was a small wedding, too. They were not tears of joy. I remember her, in full traditional Korean hanbok, bright pink and blue, looking like the world was ending. All through dinner, she was wiping her tears with her napkin. Her entire family ignored it. I believe she kept the cash her relatives gave them, too," another commented.
One person had an interesting observation. 'As I wrote earlier, the Venn diagram of moms who wear white to a wedding and are unnaturally attracted to their precious widdle boys is a circle."
Many people slammed the groom's mother for wearing an outfit that was identical to the wedding gown. 'It just doesn't get tackier than that!" a comment read.
Bride Gives Update
In the comments section, the woman talked about how her marriage has been going. She explained that her husband had scolded his mother after the wedding five years ago. Since then, her mother-in-law has been 'nothing but cordial ever since." The account did not remember if the topic of the identical outfit at the wedding was also part of her husband's discussion with his mother, but she did admit that the duo had a lot of issues to iron out.
The discussion on the subreddit highlighted how family dynamics were complex, and for many brides, their mother-in-law can be a source of stress and frustration on the wedding day itself.

BIGHIT shuts down BTS–Michael Jackson collab rumours: ‘Not involved in any capacity'
The internet lit up yesterday with reports claiming BTS had recorded a track for a posthumous Michael Jackson tribute album, but those rumours have now been shut down for good. BTS Fans of the global K-pop sensation were initially stunned, then divided, over claims that BTS had visited Grouse Lodge Studio in Ireland to record one of Michael Jackson's unreleased tracks. The rumour, which came from an interview with studio owner Paddy Dunning, sparked backlash from those unfamiliar with BTS' long-documented admiration for Jackson. But as the story picked up steam, BigHit Music stepped in to set the record straight. 'Hello, This is BIGHIT MUSIC. We would like to address recent media reports concerning BTS' alleged participation in a Michael Jackson tribute album. BTS has neither visited Grouse Lodge Studio in Ireland nor taken part in any recording sessions at the location for the mentioned project. The group is not involved in the tribute album in any capacity. We are continuing to take appropriate measures to prevent the spread of inaccurate information. We express our sincere gratitude to fans for continuously showing support for BTS. We remain fully committed to supporting the artists and their endeavours. Thank you,' said the statement. How did the rumour start? On August 3, a well-known Michael Jackson fan site MJ Vibe reported that Paddy Dunning, who owns the Grouse Lodge studio in Ireland, had told The Irish Sun that BTS had allegedly visited the studio to record a track for an upcoming tribute album, which features unreleased songs Jackson worked on during his stay in Ireland. According to the report, the song dates back to 2006, when Jackson was working on music that never saw the light of day. 'The sessions started last year and we have already had the Korean boy band BTS over with us in Grouse Lodge, recording one of the songs,' Dunning was quoted as saying. He added that ten more unreleased tracks, created during Jackson's time in Ireland with collaborators like Rodney Jerkins and Nephew, are expected to be part of the project. Alongside the music, Dunning mentioned a documentary that's being planned to honour Jackson's quiet years in Ireland with his children. 'Michael's estate told me to plough ahead with this because, like me, they see it as a tribute to Michael. And for the documentary, we're going to get everyone's memories of working with Michael in Ireland," he shared. He also recalled meeting Jackson's son Prince in the US and said that the Jackson children — Prince, Paris, and Blanket — had fond memories of their time at Grouse Lodge and hoped to visit again. While the tribute project itself remains a mystery for now, one thing is certain: BTS are not involved!

Following that, Hina had chemotherapy, surgery, and even immunotherapy until she fully recovered. On the professional front, Hina Khan is all set to make her return to television with the upcoming reality show Pati Patni Aur Panga, where she will be seen alongside her husband, Rocky Jaiswal. The much-anticipated show is slated to premiere on August 2 and will be hosted by Munawar Faruqui and Sonali Bendre.
