    She was doing fair posing and pouting to the camera, she isn't the beauty she believes though.

    That's a bit below the belt. If someone has confidence in their looks then let them be.

    I thought the reception venue was a great idea. I'd love to visit there to get the view of Cork City. I wonder how she got the idea.

    they were on a local radio station yesterday talking about it, their daughter came from a donor.

    She also mentioned she got to gamble €500 of the budget on a roulette table and won so she bought the jimmy choo's out of the winnings :D

    I don't want to derail the thread but when you say their daughter came from a donor what exactly does that mean, or how does it work?

    Did the mother spend an evening with the father or was it done via a 3rd person?

    Genuine question?

    thats all they said on the matter and they seemed really keen to change the subject (there was an awkward pause after he asked them the question) so i don't know how exactly, all they said was they used a donor.

    Just curious - do you normally ask the same question about straight couples who get pregnant, just in case they did IVF or something?

    Exactly. The couple went on a TV show to show them getting married, not to have people discussing how their baby was conceived. That is such a private question to ask. Frankly it's none of our business.

    Look it , at the moment it's very unconventional for a couple to have a baby via some ones else's sperm. Rather than ignore the situation it should be embraced and discussed.

    My current understanding is that if the biological morher dies the wife has no guardianship of the child as she is no relation. Without an open and frank discussion then nothing will change.

    I think discussing private details of this couple's situation is not fair as it not in anyway relevant to the show. If it was a programme about IVF then it would be different. But it's not.

    In fact one poster mentioned they were asked about it on a radio show and they said it was a sperm donor. That is information they felt comfortable enough to share. If they wanted to discuss it in further detail they had their opportunity. The fact they didn't shows it is a private topic. I think that should be respected.

    It was just an observation if you go public with your wedding people will comment about it, such is life.

    Voting Yes in May will change this, without any need to pry into other people's relationships.

    No I don't. But with straight couples there's usually an obvious answer.

    I take your point though. I'll ask no more.

    Why is he going so hard on the heavy metal theme when we saw her giving out about heavy metal at the start?
