Bride lost for words over her mother-in-law's 'evil' act on her wedding day: 'Wow I'm triggered'
A bride was shocked and annoyed when her mother-in-law showed up to her wedding wearing a white dress.
The mother-in-law was labelled 'selfish' and 'evil' by dozens online who were in disbelief over her outfit choice.
The floor-length strapless dress itself looked like a wedding gown with a wrap design around the waist with a centre detailing and matching jacket.
'My mother-in-law wore this dress in this colour to my wedding,' the bride wrote in a Reddit thread.
'She, for some reason, also got her hair done the day before. Very bizarre. I didn't even wear white, I wore a rose gold. Everyone was talking.'
The Reddit post quickly caught the attention of hundreds who were gobsmacked by the confession.
'Absolutely not. Wouldn't have allowed her into the building if it were me,' one said.
'What a selfish individual,' another added.
'Wow... this really triggered me,' one shared.
Many explained why they would never marry a 'mummy's boy'.
'This is why I refuse to marry any mummy's boys. Boy mums are the worst. I refuse to jeopardise my mental health for a man,' one declared.
'When will evil mother-in-laws realise that this is far more embarrassing for them than it ever could be for the bride?' another added.
While others shared their own experiences of mother-in-laws showing up to weddings in white gowns.
'My cousin's mother-in-law wore a very revealing and ill-fitting dress to a traditional church wedding. Everyone was talking about her but not in the way she wanted,' one revealed.
'I have a friend whose mum wore a white dress to her wedding. Her mum is a bit odd, and I know there was no mal-intent in her choice. I don't even know if my friend cared or not. BUT - people talked. People make comments directly to the mother of the bride. I didn't, but I was told she was almost in tears,' another shared.
It comes after an engaged couple sparked outrage after including a 'tacky' detail on their wedding invitations.
The bride-to-be and her fiancé have been together for six years, have a three-year-old and already 'established a life together' before marriage.
So instead of wedding gifts the couple prefer money to fund their honeymoon.
'We just skipped around with the steps and left getting married last so we don't need wedding gifts,' the bride wrote in a popular Facebook group and shared a draft of the invite.
The request read: 'In lieu of traditional wedding gifts, the bride and groom have asked for gifts to their honeymoon fund.'
The couple want to send out invitations immediately as the 'Great Gatsby meets fairy forest theme' wedding is in mid-October, but the bride said she's struggling with the correct wording to use.
'One issue is how to ask that we don't need wedding gifts but would prefer gifts in the honeymoon fund,' she wrote.
'Please help, I'm so lost and don't want to sound rude at all.'
She also confirmed they've already exceeded their wedding budget.
The small detail caused a stir on Facebook with many slamming the couple over the request.
'Don't ask for money or gifts. There is no non-tacky way to ask for money or gifts. The end,' one said bluntly.
'It's so easy to 'ask' for money though without being tacky. You either don't make a registry at all and people read between the lines, or you make a registry that has like two things you actually need on it,' another said.
'This is so easy - you don't say anything. You just put a card with the invitation that includes a link and a QR code to your honeymoon fund,' a third added.
But others didn't see any issue with the invitation detail.
Others were far more confused about the wedding theme.
Last month another couple divided opinions after sending out wedding invitations with an 'aggressive' dress code request.
Guests were asked wear 'black cocktail attire' and ensure they wore no signs of any colour or white.
The bride and groom outlined the dress code on the invitation and following Q&A section. They also asked guests to confirm they'd seen the request in the digital RSVP.
The tactic was quickly dubbed as 'aggressive' and 'unnecessary' by dozens after images of the invite were posted to a popular Facebook group.

Can you spot the fake? The AI ‘bootlegs' that have infuriated Disney
Disney and Universal have filed a lawsuit against a tech firm that creates AI-generated images of characters including Shrek and the Minions. The two media giants have mounted a claim against Midjourney accusing the company of making and distributing 'innumerable' copies of characters from their libraries without permission. In the lawsuit, filed in Los Angeles, the film studios said: 'By helping itself to plaintiffs' copyrighted works, and then distributing images (and soon videos) that blatantly incorporate and copy Disney's and Universal's famous characters – without investing a penny in their creation – Midjourney is the quintessential copyright free-rider and a bottomless pit of plagiarism.' They added that the alleged copyright infringement was 'calculated and wilful'. Midjourney has been contacted for comment. Midjourney is a popular generative AI software that allows users to create images from text prompts. For example, if a subscriber asks Midjourney to generate an image of Yoda in a particular setting or carrying out a certain action, the software will oblige with a high-quality and downloadable image. The quality of the images is such that they are often impossible to distinguish from the authentic, copyrighted versions. Can you spot the difference? Test your ability to spot the AI fake with our quiz. Midjourney made revenues of $300m last year through what Disney and Universal branded a 'bootlegging business model'. The Hollywood studios accuse the San Francisco-based tech company of ignoring their requests to stop infringing their copyright, or to at least adopt new technological measures to prevent the practice. They allege that Midjourney instead 'doubled down' on its actions by releasing newer versions of its AI image generation software and teasing a new video service. The lawsuit references a range of copyrighted characters including Darth Vader from Star Wars, Elsa from Frozen, Lightning McQueen from Cars, Toy Story's Buzz Lightyear, Sully from Monster's Inc, Marvel's Iron Man and Homer Simpson from The Simpsons. Disney and Universal have asked for a preliminary injunction to prevent future copyright infringement and are seeking unspecified damages from Midjourney. 'Thievery on a high scale' It comes amid a broader battle between AI companies and the creative industries over concerns the new technology is riding roughshod over copyright protections. Sir Elton John has described the actions of tech companies as 'thievery on a high scale'. While major record labels and publishers are already locked in legal battles with AI companies over copyright disputes, the lawsuit marks the first time large Hollywood studios have entered the fray. Horacio Gutierrez, Disney's chief legal and compliance officer, said: 'Our world-class IP is built on decades of financial investment, creativity and innovation – investments only made possible by the incentives embodied in copyright law that give creators the exclusive right to profit from their works. 'We are bullish on the promise of AI technology and optimistic about how it can be used responsibly as a tool to further human creativity. But piracy is piracy, and the fact that it's done by an AI company does not make it any less infringing.' Kim Harris, NBCUniversal's general counsel, said: 'We are bringing this action today to protect the hard work of all the artists whose work entertains and inspires us and the significant investment we make in our content. 'Theft is theft regardless of the technology used, and this action involves blatant infringement of our copyrights.' It is not the first time Midjourney, which was founded in 2021, has been accused of misusing copyrighted material to train its AI model. Alongside rivals including Stability AI, Midjourney is currently facing a lawsuit filed by 10 artists who accused the tech companies of copying and storing their work without permission. In a 2022 interview, Midjourney chief executive Holz said he built the company's database by performing 'a big scrape of the internet.'. Asked whether he sought consent of the artists, he responded: 'There isn't really a way to get a hundred million images and know where they're coming from.'

Beloved TV icon stuns fans by coming out as MAGA supporter after posing with Sarah Sanders
A beloved TV icon who found fame in the 1960s sitcom The Munsters has stunned fans by coming out as a MAGA supporter. Butch Patrick, who played Eddie Munster, shared a smiling photo of himself and Arkansas Gov. Sarah Sanders to his Instagram overnight after the pair were introduced at a party. The actor, whose real name is Patrick Alan Lilley, says Trump 's former White House Press Secretary was 'nice' and 'surprisingly she said I looked familiar'. 'I think I'll send her a Munster goodie,' he added, before revealing: 'I like living in Arkansas. Friendly folks.' But woke keyboard critics did not take well to the photograph and quickly launched their attacks on the 71-year-old star. 'Yuck,' one fan simply wrote, as another baselessly blasted: 'Eeeewwwww you brush elbows with Nazis? That's gross Butch.' Some of Patrick's fans, however, said it was a 'great picture' and applauded him for the 'super cool' opportunity to meet his state's Republican leader. Patrick, who is rarely seen in public, is heading out on a summer tour that will see him make live appearances at drive-ins as they screen his film Munster, Go Home!. Patrick began his acting career in 1962 in the TV sitcom the McCoys before he was cast in The Munsters in 1964. Patrick was 11 years old when he began playing Eddie Munster, a young werewolf who was the son of Frankenstein monster Herman, played by Fred Gwynne, and his vampire wife, Lily, portrayed by Yvonne De Carlo. The show ran for 70 episodes from 1964 to 1966 and sent up the picture-perfect all-American family by replacing them with good-natured monsters. Eddie's pet was no family dog, he was a fire-breathing dragon. The beloved comedy fantasy show was cancelled after its second season's ratings plummeted, although it later became a cult hit and remains embedded in the public consciousness thanks to frequent re-runs. But Patrick told Fox News in a 2019 interview that the reason the show's popularity dropped was due to its rival Batman. 'I think Batman was to blame,' Patrick said. 'Batman just came along and took our ratings away.' His next hit would be the ABC children's show Lidsville which ran from 1971 to 1973. Patrick starred alongside veteran actors Billie Hayes and Charles Nelson Reilly as Mark - a boy lost in a strange land where humanoid hats walked, talked and sang. Patrick reprised the role of Eddie - who is a werewolf child - in the 1966 film Munster, Go Home and again in a 1999 episode of The Simpsons. He also appeared in a string of other shows throughout the 1960s including My Favorite Martian, I Dream Of Jeannie, My Three Sons and The Monkees. As an adult however his career was less successful, and he struggled with alcohol and drug problems before entering rehab in late 2010. In 2021, the actor testified in court in Wisconsin after a woman charged with murdering her husband claimed five other people – including Patrick – were actually behind the shooting death. The case took 15 years to come to court and Patrick maintained his innocence saying he had met the couple at the Monster Hall Raceway in 2006 but didn't know he had been accused of murder until six years after the incident. 'I was in the process of booking an event when someone says, "Have you seen the National Enquirer today?" I said, "No," and when I looked it up I noticed I was on the cover with the headline that says "Munster Murder Bombshell at Monster Hall" and that's how I found out about my... supposedly my involvement in it,' Patrick said during his testimony. Crime lab witnesses did not find any evidence of Patrick or the four other suspects inside the couples' home, nor any DNA evidence linking him to the crime. Eventually the wife, Cindy Schulz-Juedes was found guilty. She was in the process of appealing the verdict when she was killed by her cellmate in Taycheedah Correctional Institution in July 2023. Prior to this bombshell case, Patrick revealed in 2011 that he had been battling prostate cancer. This was only a year after he entered a rehab to combat his years of drug and alcohol abuse that plagued him throughout his adult years. Fortunately, his disease was caught early by a doctor in the facility he stayed in and he was able to remove the small mass shortly after. The star attributed his push to get sober as the reason he's still alive today. Patrick is one of the few surviving cast members of The Munsters, along with Pat Priest, who played his onscreen sister Marilyn and who is now retired from acting. Gwynne, who played his screen father Herman, died in 1993, while Al Lewis passed away in 2006 and Yvonne de Carlo in 2007.

World's biggest TikTok star Khaby Lame to return to Italy after being deported from US for overstaying his visa
Khaby Lame, the world's most popular TikTok personality, will return to Italy after being deported from the US for overstaying his visa. The Senegalese-Italian influencer, whose legal name is Seringe Khabane Lame, was detained on Friday at Harry Reid International Airport - but was allowed to leave the country without a deportation order, a spokesperson for US Immigration and Customs Enforcement confirmed in a statement. Lame arrived in the US on April 30 and 'overstayed the terms of his visa', the ICE spokesperson said. He has so far not publicly commented on his detainment, but did return to social media from Brazil last week. Khaby Lame rose to international fame during the pandemic without ever saying a word in his videos, which would show him reacting to absurdly complicated 'life hacks'. He has more than 162 million followers on TikTok alone. On Wednesday, a right-wing influencer and friend of Barron Trump took credit for the star's deportation. Lame moved to Italy when he was an infant with his working class parents and has Italian citizenship. His internet fame quickly evolved. He signed a multiyear partnership with designer brand Hugo Boss in 2022. In January, he was appointed as a Unicef goodwill ambassador. Last month, he attended the Met Gala in New York City, days after arriving in the US, where he wore a three piece suit with well over a dozen timepieces attached to his vest. Yesterday, one of Barron Trump's supposed best friends has claimed he was responsible for getting Lame deported. Bo Loudon, a Gen Z MAGA influencer who's previously been pictured with Barron and Donald Trump, said he reported Khaby Lame to Immigration and Customs Enforcement. Loudon's first post on X came June 6 when he wrote that Lame is an 'illegal alien ' in all caps before proclaiming that he has 'been working with the patriots at President Trump's DHS' to deport the Senegal-born influencer. Loudon, 18, claimed that Lame was detained at Henderson Detention Center, southeast of Las Vegas proper, though its unclear how long he may have been in custody before leaving. He made a post Wednesday afternoon denouncing various media outlets' coverage of this incident, who reportedly called him a 'rat' and a 'rat extraordinaire'. 'Why? Because I helped President Trump's DHS deport TikTok's biggest star, Khaby Lame, for being in the U.S. illegally,' he added. 'I wish Khaby well and hope he returns as a LAW-ABIDING citizen.' His detainment and voluntary departure from the US comes amid President Donald Trump 's escalating crackdown on immigration, including raids in Los Angeles that sparked days of protests against ICE, as the president tests the bounds of his executive authority. A voluntary departure - which was granted to Lame - allows those facing removal from the US to avoid a deportation order on their immigration record, which could prevent them from being allowed back into the US for up to a decade. But many, including British citizens, haven't been afforded that luxury. British backpacker Rebecca Burke, 28, was on a 'once in a lifetime' solo travelling trip across the US and Canada when she was handcuffed while trying to cross the Canadian border on February 26. She spent nearly three weeks behind bars 5,000 miles from home at a detention centre in Tacoma, Washington, where she is said to have survived on a diet of cold rice, potatoes and beans. Burke was eventually released on March 18, and later warned others to not even bother going to the US. She told the Guardian following her release: 'First, because of the danger of what could happen to you. And, secondly, do you really want to give your money to this country right now?
