Woman slammed for announcing her sister’s pregnancy in maid of honour speech

A woman shocked everyone after she announced her sister’s pregnancy during her spiteful maid of honour speech on her sibling’s big day. A guest at the wedding, who is believed to be from the US, spoke about the “cringeworthy” situation on Reddit.

Writing on the social media forum, the guest claimed the maid of honour couldn’t stand not being the centre of attention during her younger sister’s wedding, and started off the speech by saying: “We’ve heard enough about my sister for one day, I’m a little sick of it”

She ended the speech by dropping a bomb when she revealed the bride’s secret pregnancy, which she’d not even told her parents about, saying: “Can’t wait to meet the little one.”

Social media users were left horrified by the selfish behaviour of the woman, although many questioned why the bride trusted her with the news in the first place.

The post read: “Maid of honour speech gave me physical cringe. Okay, I’ve been waiting to post this story for a few weeks now.

“This wedding occurred in June but I had to wait to post as not to dox myself. I recently attended a wedding with my boyfriend. It was his male cousin getting married.

“The wedding itself started off fine. We had heard rumours that there was some drama among the bride’s party particularly with the maid of honour who was the bride’s older sister.

“Anyway they have a nice ceremony, nice cocktail hour and we all sit down to eat.’ Here’s where it gets good.”

She continued: “The first two speeches from the best man and the bride’s father are fine.

“Nothing crazy just your standard speech at a wedding. Then comes the maid of honour.

“She walks up to the front and grabs the mic. First thing she says is, ‘I didn’t write anything down I figured I’d wing it’ which at first I thought, ‘Okay whatever works for you’, but my boyfriend felt it showed she didn’t care enough to put the effort in.

“She then said ‘Honestly we’ve heard enough about my sister for one day. I’m a little sick of it’. Then proceeds to go off thanking both parties and a few others.

“Doesn’t say a word about her sister (the bride) or the groom. She then ends the speech by saying, “Can’t wait to meet the little one.”

“The whole room went silent. Apparently, the bride was 6 weeks along and only her sister knew. Not even her parents. The bride looks mortified.

“The rumours we heard after were that the maid of honour couldn’t stand to not be the centre of attention during events so she just had to be the one to tell everyone that her sister was pregnant. It was such an awkward after-party.”

The post gathered nearly 3,000 likes with many sharing their thoughts in the comments section, with one saying they couldn’t believe she didn’t ‘get kicked out of the wedding’.

Another one wrote: “Sounds like an older sis with a lot of jealousy issues.”
