(Original Air Date: 11/27/07) Dr. Phil follows up with a family torn apart when the mother was banned from her only son’s wedding. The bride-to-be, Michelle, said she’d rather burn in hell than let her future mother-in-law, Jane, attend the ceremony, and her fiancé, Jay, stood behind her decision. This sent the entire family into a tailspin, with the best man resigning, the aunt disowning the groom and the wedding planner on alert to call 911 if Jane showed up. The big day has come and gone, and everyone returns to update Dr. Phil with the latest. Were they able to bury the hatchet before the wedding? Jane has gone through a rollercoaster of emotions, and Dr. Phil finds out what has her so mad at him, she even wrote him a scathing letter one week after her appearance. Has Jane done a 180-degree turn since? Has Michelle stopped her “campaign of hate mail” as Jane called it and opened up her arms to her husband’s mother? Share your thoughts, join the discussion.

Find out what happened on the show.

Well said.

Quote From: corney69

I think no matter what the mother in law does the daughter IN law will still act like she is 10years old.I think the son needs to let his wife know that he can love both of them.The mother of the bride went way wrong in teaching her daughter respect.   you can clearly see that the bride is so jealus of the fact that there's another woman loving the groom It is very clear that no matter what the mom does the bride will just countinue the drama,she said she did not want all the drama but I think she has nothing really going on in her life that all she has is drama. What is really going to be funny is ,in about 2 to 3 years when they get divorced (when the husband wants to be with a woman not a little,little girl)the mother will have her son back and hopfully a great relationship with the new WOMAN in her sons life.
I agree with you. The Mom is trying, but Michelle seems to be trying to continue the rift and continues to be rude, example, cutting up the flowers, not accepting Mom's apology.  Jay, please wake up and make room for Mom in your life - invite her over on Christmas Day, please and call her at least once a week as well as visit her regularly, even if Michelle doesn't want to go with you.  Not having her at the wedding was unacceptable!

Could'nt show your face..could you?

You only have one mother!..for LIFE, what is wrong with you, some day you will understand what a mother's love is all about..but it might be too late for someone like you, I cant blame your wife but I must say she is looking through rose colored glasses, cause if you could BAN your mother to your wedding she has a big LOAD to look forward to.! The older your parents are the more they depend on you and YOU are her only son! What's wrong with you? I hope your "KNIFE" and you find contentment within your self cause in life you also need someone else....LIKE A MOTHER?

11/27 Banned from the Wedding, Part 2

Quote From: polleen911

Are you kidding me??? This is 2007, my friend...even June Cleaver didn't take that crap from Ward. You should be ashamed for expressing such lack of respect for women.

I would just like to clarify that I wrote this in response to dave0958 's comment, not mommy2nicholas's...I guess I didn't post properly, I'm kinda new so my appologies.

I'VE BEEN THERE... U NEED TIME... U GO GIRL! I'M FOR THE BRIDE!

HEY BRIDE AND GROOM... your #1 prioriy is YOUR MARRIAGE...

 

...so I'm with you on standing together as a unit. I'm sure it's very tough for the groom to separate from his family. The conflicts have been laid out on the table and the mother-in-law is looking insincere due to the speed of  'change'. Now, I think the bride and groom should be the family that they are... stay separated from the groom's family for awhile, and live their lives all on their own. In due time, both parties will come along and their emotions won't be as extreme... someone will make the effort to reunite. But right now, the wounds are still fresh... give each other time SEPARATELY...

 

BELIEVE ME... IT'S HAPPENED TO ME... AND TIME AWAY FROM THE OTHER PARTY WILL WORK! :)

what goes around comes around

Bridezilla needs to get her brain tuned up.... Hubby needs to grow some b's.  Someday when Bridezilla turns that anger and ugliness against him, he will know how his mother feels. And believe me that day will come... when the cuteness and good sex goes away and day to day life kicks in she is not going to be a person that will make him happy... nobody with her attitude can make anyone happy because she is a miserable person.  Hopefully mommy will tell him where he can plant his lips when that day comes.  He will get exactly what he deserves... lets hope they don't have kids  they might turn  out like her...  As for the bridezilla's mother, you should be totally embarrassed to claim her as a daughter.. If my child acted like yours does, I would never even  acknowledge she was mine....  shame on you!

I have one question .. why is Jay's face blotted out during the tapings?  Is he embarassed by his own behaviour?  its not like his friends and colleagues don't know who he is ...

 

It would seem to me that he is being led by the nose and does not have the maturity to stand up for himself and his mom .. shame on him and shame on his new wife .. what if it was her mom that he wanted banned from the wedding.

 

Show your face, own up to your own wrong doings and be a man !!!! 

 

I don't condone Mom's behaviour but do understand how it got out of hand .. her own son turned his back on her ..

 

Grow up all of you and get on with it .. life is way too short to be so narrow-minded and self-centered.

 

Hopefully there will be a peaceful ending to this but Mom will never have that moment back where she watches her beloved son wed ... shame on all of you !!!

Banned from wedding

Quote From: rae1955

I can't imagine marrying a man I felt so little respect for that I was at ease pulling rank, insulting and being generally abusive to any members of his family - much less his Mother! Real  love can not exist without respect. Michelle should walk away from this union. When she finds someone that she truly loves she will be willing to welcome his family into her home - if not her heart.

I am in agreement with you. If Michelle can't have any respect for the mother in law how can she expect to love Jay for the rest of their lives? If not for his mother there would not be any Jay for her to control and manipulate. Michelle's body language says so very much about her! She has no intentions of trying to be a loving daughter in law. Perhaps if she has a child of her own she will understand the real love of a mother. Her jealousy of Jay's relationship with his mother is very evident. Where is Jay's backbone and why is Michelle doing most of the talking? I see divorce in the very near future unless he puts his foot down on Michelle.

11/27 Banned from the Wedding, Part 2

Quote From: mdtoco

I completely agree with you. The bride is evil. She loves every minute of torturing her MIL.You can tell by Michelle's body language and facial expressions that she's enjoying seeing the MIL crumble. Jay is screwed if he reconciles with his mother.The wife won't have any of that, she wants Jay all to herself with no baggage (i.e. His Family). Unfortunately, when you choose to get married, you have to occassionally eat a $hit sandwich when it comes to the in-laws.

This marriage is not going to end well, the writing is already on the wall.

Dil, will get what she deserves here soon.

Hes too young 2 b married.

Im my husband 2nd wife... he too got married 2 young!

 

My mother had a terrible DIL... she was so nasty to us is not even funny!

All about  the $$...  making my mom to sell her house to pay their  bills. then we moved to my older brother's property a little shack in the back yard.

comes time to take a dump... we had to do it in a bucket and trow it away... my sister in law wouldnt let us use the toilet.

Eventually we moved!

she's so mean, ... funny my mom never treat her bad.. ever.. my mom passed away. and i dont contact with them.

turns out my  older brother has been having sex with his other sister for more than 40yrs.

(my mom adopted her nephew, my brother)

 

Michelle will soon get hers too..

Dr. Phil WHAT were you thinking????

I felt, after watching this second show, that Dr. Phil, whom I adore, left Jane and everyone else feeling that she was the only problem in this relationship. It was obvious to me that Michelle is a conniving little bitch. I would suggest Jane just keep her cool be as nice as possible because I don't believe this marriage will last that long anyway.

The "grooms' uncle stated that Michelle and whatever her husband's name was, had contributed greatly to the unfortunate situation as well. Dr. Phil didn't come down on them as I felt he should have. He kept saying they (Michelle and ?) were in the right. I felt sorry for Jane. She loves her son and was very hurt by the lack of support from Dr. Phil. 

This is the first time I have disagreed with Dr. Phil. I truly hope that Jane gets some feedback from these messages that support her. I felt todays audience sided with Jane as well.

Won't last!!!

I see this marriage ending.  The bride is obviously spoiled and selfish.  I don't care what she claims on her defense, her attitude totally is out of line and will always be like that.  God help any children she has, they will be just like her.    Oh, maybe she will have a son and he will marry a B like her..  I can relate to the mom in this situation, Us as mom's can see trouble with a capital T.  And this girl is that T.  I hope when the son realizes his mom is part of his life he also realizes that mom's and wives are two seperate people and you can work with both, and take some time out to see his mom and talk to her if wifey doesn't like it so be it,, he is given one mother in this lifetime and once she is gone you can't go back and say I'm sorry mom.  shunning his mom was and is WRONG.
