Faked Death Groom

[boston bean]

fiancé faked his own death by telephoning his partner and pretending to be his father breaking the bad news - so he could get out of his approaching wedding day, it was revealed today.

Bride-to-be Alex Lanchester, 23, of Sutton Coldfield, West Midlands, received a phone call just months before her wedding claiming that Tucker Blandford, also 23, of Stamford, Connecticut, had died in a car accident.

She then rang the American’s parents to offer her condolences, but they told her he was alive and well - and Miss Lanchester quickly learned he had faked his death to avoid the wedding.

1. I'm channelling my widower's grief, here - WHAT A FUCKING IDIOT.

Not only did he blow off a woman who could have been his best friend for life, but he did so in one of the cheesiest and most insulting manners possible. As if he thought Alex would never call back and figure it out.

YOU BLEW IT, KID. Enjoy the single life - it's all you will ever know.

2. He's a keeper...

I'm glad she found out before the wedding.

3. Better she finds out what a lily-livered, sniveling little wuss he is now instead after the wedding.

She's well rid of him.

4. Alex, you just had a near miss

Think about being tied to that cowardly dirtbag!

7. And dumb as a box of rocks. She shouldn't want to be tied to an imbecile

who couldn't even foresee that his fiancee would speak to his parents about his supposed death.

5. He's not very good at it

I hope Alex is over this quickly he isn't worth the grief.

6. That's really crummy. On the other hand "Faked Death Groom"

is a killer band name. Speed Metal maybe? or Grime-house?

8. Sue him for breech of promise!

The article says he lives in a $650,000 house - find out if it's in his name.

She definitely is lucky they didn't actually get married, though maybe she'd be able to take more of his assets if they had.

9. Ahh...The poor girl. Having you heart broken in so many ways on the same day.

BUT...there are ways. Spread his name/picture far and wide.

"So...you want me to hire you and trust you, when even your waiting bride can't trust you.? And worse, she can't even trust you to tell her the truth in a mature way??"
"...and you want me to hire you.?..I think not.

10. So...? They both dodged a bullet.

Not handled maturely but not doing the marriage was the best thing

11. "Why do this garbage we look bad enough

now we have this loser screwing up the chances to get a cute girl internationally."

One of the comments.

13. Way too young

to be getting hitched anyways.

14. That's pretty crappy.

At least he did it a few months beforehand and didn't just stand her up at the alter.
