Lawyers Share the Most Chaotic Divorces They’ve Ever Seen

I work with a man who was married a few years ago. He and his wife-to-be spent a year planning their lavish wedding.

A few months into the engagement, they found out that the bride’s cousin, a bridesmaid, was going to start IVF (in-vitro fertilization) to hopefully become pregnant. She and her husband had long struggled with infertility, and could finally afford to begin IVF.

The engaged couple was furious with the cousin for not waiting to start her family, because they didn’t want her to be hugely pregnant on their big day.

What ended up happening? The cousin made it to the wedding, and ended up going into labor the next day.

No problem, right? Wrong.

As my co-worker was telling me this story, years later, he was still bitter about it, telling me how selfish they had been to not wait, and how much the nine-month pregnant woman at the wedding and the excitement of the birth the next day had taken away from their “special day.”
