A COUPLE are keen to know why you would organise an event or big life change when you know very well that they are getting married this year.
Joe Turner and Sophie Rodriguez are furious that other people are having babies, finding new jobs or getting engaged when everybody’s attention should be on their upcoming wedding.
Rodriguez said: “What the hell do they think they’re doing? It’s massively disrespectful for them to continue living their lives.
“The fact that my cousin will be five months pregnant during the most important day of my life is yet another attempt by selfish people in my family to steal my thunder.
“Why couldn’t she just stop trying for a year or so? Let me have my moment before she has hers? It’s not that much to ask, even if she has had fertility trouble or whatever.”
Friend Francesca Johnson says the couple’s attitude has encouraged her to try to upstage the event by any means necessary.
She commented: “I’m going to get my boyfriend to propose as they walk down the aisle, pretend to go into labour when they cut the cake, and announce that I have three months to live during the first dance.
“Hopefully that will be enough but, if not, I’ll also spill the beans on the groom’s affair.”
