This week hasn’t been an easy one for Charlotte Goodlet, the partner of AFL Sydney Swans co-captain Kieren Jack, who is now famous for being hated by Kieren’s mum Donna.
Allegedly, there’s been a slew of nasty texts, tweets, threats to go to the media, and screaming matches all on mum’s part. For… well… for seemingly no real reason at all. Apart from a few AFL tickets not coming her way and a big dollop of jealousy, Donna just doesn’t like her son’s choice of girlfriend.
While not all mother-in-laws are difficult to get along with, this is a situation many women have found themselves in.
Being hated by your significant other's mother is tricky. Just ask these Reddit users:
Bewitched
Sometimes, mother-in-laws can just be downright nasty. Take CosmicBasic, for example, whose MIL made a habit of bitching about her to HER EIGHT-YEAR-OLD SON.
"She said you were a bad mummy and that she was a good mummy and that I should stay with her," ComicBasic's little boy told her when he got home from a visit at his grandmother's house. "I said I didn't want to stay and that you're the best mummy and I said that she is a witch! Then she she used very bad words."
