How many times is the Daily Mail going to gasp and point at Ronnie Wood for fathering a baby in his late sixties.

Surely the 'novelty' has worn off by now? It has for me!

What do you think?

Andy as this is your thread you will excuse me for going off topic for a moment won't you because I am really worried in case you missed this yesterday LOL.

ladybirder, I don't understand the 'LOL'. Why is that funny?
I didn't understand the LOL either.
Distasteful, LB.

Naomi - //ladybirder, I don't understand the 'LOL'. Why is that funny? //

I am sure the LOL refers to my frequent references to the even-more-frequent references by Ms. Hunniford to her departed daughter who died from cancer.

I don't think Ladybirder is inferring that either the death of Ms. Keating, or Ms. Hunniford's undoubtedly genuine grief is in itself amusing - but in the context of my recent mention of it on a thread on here, there is an amusing aspect to the fact that once again my point receives evidence of truth - much to the dismay of those who huffed and puffed that my point was not valid - clearly it is, and will no doubt remain so.

I did miss it - thanks for pointing it out.

I reaffirm that I take no pleasure whatever in Ms. Hunniford's grief, which I do not doubt is genuine and heartfelt - but I continue to find her maudlin behaviour inappropriate and unpleasant, given its constant exposure on national television.
I didn't think that LB was being disrespectful, I simply didn't understand... an 'in-joke' as it were.
Maybe we should have a specific topic to scoff at Gloria Hunniford's heartache.

Maybe we could take turns in watching her on TV just in case she mentions her daughter?

There is no 'just in case' - trust me!
It appears they were all discussing cancer among their families so quite appropriate she'd mention Caron
So yesterday was her first time on TV since she last mentioned her daughter?

Yeah, ok.

Andy has explained the LOL - It was to show I was teasing him and he obviously understood that. Thanks Andy.

Andy-hughes, The 'LOL' was at your attitude then. Thank you for clarifying. I thought it out of character that someone as caring as Ladybirder would mock the heartache of a grieving mother.

No-one, especially me, wishes to 'scoff' at Gloria Hunniford's heartache - as I have taken pains to point out whenever the subject is raised.

My argument is that the fact that she will mention her daughter's tragic loss if a discussion comes anywhere near death - and often if it doesn't - and that in my view is inappropriate, given the frequency with which it occurs.

Plenty of other TV presenters have lost loved ones, but they haven't parlayed that loss into become the default tragedy queen of Daytime TV.
^Oh my!

I am unsure what you refer to as 'my attitude' - but yes, the point Ladybirder was making was reference to yesterday's debate in which I pointed out the inappropriate frequency with which Gloria Hunniford uses her daughter's death to look empathetic and simultaneously grandstand on television.

That does not infer that her grief is not genuine, merely that her constant reference to it is inappropriate.
Andy-hughes, //Gloria Hunniford uses her daughter's death to look empathetic and simultaneously grandstand on television.//

I don’t believe any parent who has lost a child deliberately does that. Such grief is insurmountable.
Question Author
Naomi - //I don’t believe any parent who has lost a child deliberately does that. //

Evidence suggests that you are incorrect.

//Such grief is insurmountable. // - and personal.
andy-hughes, just hope you never walk in her shoes.
Question Author
Naomi - //andy-hughes, just hope you never walk in her shoes. //

As do I - but that is not the point.

In my view, Gloria Hunniford continues to exploit the tragic death of her daughter for career-enhancing purposes, and the evidence there on a regular basis to support that view.

That is not in any way connected to my sympathy for her loss, or the gratitude I feel for not being in that situation.
