i very much doubt Matt was invited. guaranteed Louise wanted Liam to do the speech, talking about how proud he is of Darcy and how beautiful she is and how she has overcome some really difficult situations in her life and that they love her so much specifically so she could ensure it was filmed and she could share it on IG, where Matt and Devon are guaranteed to see it - especially as Darcy has an IG account and will undoubtedly share Louise's stories about her party. wouldn't surprise me if the mention of "difficult situations" was a sly dig at Matt as she has hinted at custody issues previously, and making a point of having Liam standing at the front making a speech and talking about Darcy as though she is his daughter is probably pretty hurtful given that her father wasn't invited to the party, which is a shame that Louise couldn't behave like an adult in the situation and invite him for Darcy's sake. I'm sure she will celebrate her birthday with her dad in their own way, but plastering an expensive, OTT party all over social media to rub Mary's face i. what he is missing is classic Louise, can't resist a sprinkle of spite.
especially when even in the photos she shared in her stories, she is very much making a point of all the people on her side of the family who are at the party - auntie this and auntie that, plus her half sister, and Liam and Louise as Darcy's "proud parents". i know it is the case in many families with divorced parents that the two sides of the family refuse to interact, but it's the child who suffers - and for Darcy, it's worse because Louise is always so keen to plaster everything all over social media, and although she wouldn't say it because she is so desperate to please Louise, i have no doubt she wishes that all her family could have been at her party, instead of having to live two totally separate lives. even if Matt and Louise don't get on great, if they are co-parenting, at least for a party for her 13th birthday, it's a shame they couldn't put their issues aside for a few hours and all attend, they wouldn't even have had to speak to each other - but ofc that would mean good egg Liam couldn't make a speech as though he's Darcy's father, and Louise is keen to present them as The Pentland family unit.
To be honest if I split with my partner I wouldnt go to a party he throws for our daughter, I'd just do our own thing. It's not like it's her wedding were both parents need to attend.
The child would suffer if parents who no longer love each other and separated for a reason were forced to enjoy a party together. Kids aren't stupid, they would feel an atmosphere. Much better to have separate celebrations and Matt can do it in the way he wants and not in the vulgar ott way lady louise does it.especially when even in the photos she shared in her stories, she is very much making a point of all the people on her side of the family who are at the party - auntie this and auntie that, plus her half sister, and Liam and Louise as Darcy's "proud parents". i know it is the case in many families with divorced parents that the two sides of the family refuse to interact, but it's the child who suffers - and for Darcy, it's worse because Louise is always so keen to plaster everything all over social media, and although she wouldn't say it because she is so desperate to please Louise, i have no doubt she wishes that all her family could have been at her party, instead of having to live two totally separate lives. even if Matt and Louise don't get on great, if they are co-parenting, at least for a party for her 13th birthday, it's a shame they couldn't put their issues aside for a few hours and all attend, they wouldn't even have had to speak to each other - but ofc that would mean good egg Liam couldn't make a speech as though he's Darcy's father, and Louise is keen to present them as The Pentland family unit.
Oh I certainly think Lady Louise is being spiteful. It's definitely a I'm going to rub it in your face Matt type of party.
no we don’t which is why i mentioned in the previous thread that i found it odd that louise referred to herself and liam as “proud parents”. if matt & devon were there they maybe didn’t want to be photographed which is fair enough, but i hope for matt’s sake they didn’t go, because what dad wants to see some other guy giving a speech about HIS daughter
we should keep this in mind for the next titlea sprinkle of spite.
she already had one account that darcy asked her to close because of the pressure
it's probably for the best
