There may be those amongst us who admire her however I never cease to wonder at the depths she plunges in order to obtain money/publicity. In the latest recording for the Ophra corporation she is pictured crying and both her daughters are reduced to crying.

I feel she is an embarrassment to everyone including herself but feel so sorry for those girls. This time I feel she has hit rock bottom.

Judge not unless ye be judged...or words to that effect.

Or....slag not off others lest ye be slagged off


Or.....Oh well, I expect my point may have been made by now

Or, there could be the other side of it in that she has been treated like a piece of poo by her ex and his family?

IGP...except of course for a huge wad of cash, total financial support for her children, and a secure home for them until they were grown, and a decent relationship with the ex ...eek, that I should be treated so bad.... !

Often used to see Fergie before she married, her family lived in Dummer, Hampshire, the next village to where I live.
She was much much better in them days, always seemed polite and friendly.

I think it could not have been easy living with that lot, the attitude that she has now probably rubbed off from Andrew, hes something else.

I am neither a fan of hers or loathe her ,I do think the media have had the knife in her since the day she married Andrew, they have been nothing but cruel to her, calling her names about her weight dress sense, constantly comparing her too Princess Di ( which they seem to be doing with Kate and really gets my dander up) .....what chance did the poor women have.

We all DO judge people, whether we say so or not, it's not necessarily to be unkind, sometimes it is just being realistic.

And EVERYONE ( probably excepting George lol) on this thread, including me, has reached some judgement on fellow members based on what we have read on here without knowing them 'in person'...?

It doesn''t mean we wouldn't help them if they fell in the street, or that we won't think 'there but for the grace of God'...but it is human nature to say 'she was daft' etc.

i think the bloke who tried to rip me off last week was greedy...it doesn't mean I have to know all his circumstances to make that call, it's a fact....and as for the person having the barbecue that has just smoked my whole house with petrol fumes...WELL! I don't need to walk a mile in his moccassins to know he's a prat lol.

Oh bless her - I do think she's a shower and she makes me cringe but I just think she was born without any judgement at all and there's no harm in her

And another thing.......I am discusted at the way the media treat her daughters as well, its bleddy outragous.. :-(

To make it public and in writing, to me, is sealing ones own fate with negativity....but then that is me..

..Whether Fergie is good or bad should not be a point of discussion, in my opinion. We all and I mean all have our imperfections. I would hate to be the center of a discussion which totally ripped me to pieces. Gossip, and that is what it is whichever way one looks at it, Is one of the most harmful deeds anyone can do to another human being.

As I say....Judge not lest ye shall be judged. and in this particular case and others we know nothing but that which the media tell us and have no understanding as to the truth behind any stories.

I have always felt the divorce was only for conformity or something. They still seem like a pretty close couple to me.

Not one way or the other about her...she comes across like a big bouncy labrador...and whilst sometimes endearing is often irritating.

But saying that ...I quite like labradors regardless lol x

Muffy - have to agree, but to be more specific - a Chocolate labrador.
Very few brain cells, not totally aware of what's going on around them, and will eat everything in their path!!!!
Quite cute, but I wouldn't own one.
