“I’m sorry…” — Man who attended his wife’s boss’ daughter’s wedding landed in trouble
A man’s attempt at a private joke at his wife’s boss’s daughter’s wedding ended in embarrassment and a public argument, sparking debate online.
The incident, which he later shared on social media, has drawn mixed reactions from readers about respect, timing and basic courtesy at formal events.
A Whisper That Went Wrong
According to the man, he attended the wedding with his wife over the weekend.
He said his wife had warned him to be on his best behaviour because the bride was her boss’s daughter.
Everything appeared to be going smoothly at first.
He admitted he was enjoying the drinks when he leaned towards a guest beside him and whispered, “That’s the ugliest bride I’ve ever seen.”
The remark did not stay private for long.
The man standing next to him responded sharply, saying, “Do you mind. That’s my daughter you’re talking about.”
Realising the gravity of the situation, he quickly apologised.
“I had no idea you were her father,” he said.
The response that followed shocked him.
The guest replied, “I’m her mother, you idiot!”
That exchange, he said, was how the fight started.
Online Reactions Pour In
After the story surfaced online, social media users did not hold back their opinions.
One user, Honey_k, wrote: “Your wife is looking for another job…why???”
Another, Beezley, commented: “You should have listened to your wife. But I’m glad you feel ok to say what is in your mind.”
Joycee took a firmer stance, writing: “Is this supposed to be funny? I don’t go about calling people ugly, let alone calling someone ugly on her wedding day. Some things are meant to be kept within. It doesn’t take anything to be kind with words.”
