(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.

what a great son.

Tell Jane I hope she has a dog , and to get a will and leave every thing to the dog. after her daughter -in law. has an affair with her husbands best friend, or has kids and hes not the father and she calls the cops and has him removed from his own house and he has to pay child surport. and he dosent have even his Mom to go to . thats what he  wanted, he needs to be a man , and tell that wife of his to respect his mother, or go back with her mother. as my daughter-in-law said to me, a daughter is a daughter for the rest of your life a son is a son till he takes a wife..  the daughter- in- law from hell.  BARBARA

Daughter in Law Jelously

Quote From: govikings69

Here, here The mother-in-law is the main problem ! Quit dmping on he bride ! She is just responding tothe M-I-L. 

You know, watching both shows and knowing these two, Jay and Michelle  WILL be divorced in 3 years time I feel no Sympathy for Michelle in any way.

She is selfish childish and very ignorant. her assumption that Jane is the only person who needs to work on herself  just shows that she was not and is not ready for marriage.

Michelles mother needs to take another look at the way she raised Michelle because it is VERY PLAIN to see that Michelle got and gets what ever she wants when she wants it and throws temper tantrums when she doesn't  get her way.

As for Jay get a backbone, you have blamed your mother for everything and have not taken a look at your childwife or yourself, and instead of owning up to anything you have done, or your childwife for that matter you hide behind anonymity claiming it has to do with your job.

You have been Lying about sooo much and the only reason you HIDE is because you are ASHAMED of yours and your childwifes behaviour. Once you're divorced in 3 years hopefully your mother will be more forgiving than you are.

Remember this, what goes around comes around, and don't think for one minute your children won't do this to you.....especially when they find out what you and Michelle have done to your mother.

Women will come and go your mother is the ONLY CONSTANT woman in your life and her love is unconditional unlike Michelles ( as you will see in a couple of years).

Some one needs to teach that girl respect!!

I coud never be a talk show host..bc I'd probably have got up and smacked the bride to be, way back in the first episode!  That guy is going to wake up a couple of years down the road..and is going to be miserable bc that selfish, rude, witch is going to seclude him from everyone..then i'm sure eventually she'll turn on him too.  It's really too bad that men usually think with the wrong head...bc there is no way I would allow some one like her to come into my family and be sooooo horrible, rude and disrepectful!!  Seriously keep her off the TV...it doesn't matter what anyone says to try and help their situation..bc she doesn't want  it..and she simply wants to make the mother suffer!

06/24 Banned from the Wedding, Part 2

Quote From: rblasser

Watching this show has got my blood boiling! I think the son, Jay, does not have the stomach to stand up to his wife and take the position of being a hero in this situation. Jane is extending an olive branch no matter how awkward. Michelle is a self centered controller, who has Jay at her feet. She needs to get real and grow up! Jay needs to get a pair.

I could not agree more with this reaction I feel like I wrote it (He needs to get a pair)

Good work, Jane

I am 47 years old, have been watching talk shows since the days of Donahue, and this is the first time I have ever felt compelled to write in.

 

I just want to encourage Jane in the work she is doing. Jane, you have undergone a transformation - it shows. Anyone who could sit on national television and take the emotional assault you received by sitting there and "keeping your side of the street clean" and being understanding of Michelle and Jay's inability and unwillingness to even look at their part in things has obviously undergone a sincere transformation.

 

Wow. Wow. Wow. You got it. I know that there will be times when that peace slips, but as I'm sure you already know, that doesn't negate the distance you've come....just brush it off, make the appropriate amends, and keep doing the good work! There is a softness to you now. And I know the hardness that it replaced must have come from your own hurts in life, so good for you for being willing to simply step into what is real and deal with things as they are.

 

I can only hope that Michelle and Jay...and Jay, in particular, will take the time to work similarly on themselves in order to establish the healthy relationship that you, in your part, are making available. Good, good work. Thanks for the incredible example you set for me today. You were an inspiration.

Let it go

Enough already!  You each have stated your points of view.  Neither of you are going to budge.  Family unity is not, I repeat, NOT your goals. 

Go your separate ways and for heavens sake DO not bring children into this dysfunctional mess!

Shame on all of you!

re i agree about the spoiled girl who married the hypocrite boy

I agree with the last lady's comment that I see the young lady that married the man who HAS TO REMAIN SO ANYOMOUS HE CAN'T SHOW HIS FACE ON TV ( why is that, do you work for the CIA?).  Stand up and be a man! THIS IS YOUR MOM! YOUR WIFE WILL TURN ON YOU and then who wlll you go to? YOUR MOM! Guess what, your marriage will not last since most marriages end in divorce these days and you are latching onto a young thing who is cute and cuddly, wait until she has kids, gets hormonal, gains weight, gets wrinkles,  becomes bitchy, wants no sex with you, takes your monies behind  your back the first time you split up.  Also, get over it, your mom is trying to make an effort with counseling and you are not!!!!!!!! Your wife is a spoiled brat and thank god you are not my son because if you were I would DISOWN YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Grow up and let bygones be bygones and quit sweating the small stuff, pick your battles, life is too short. Your mom won't be here forever even though you and your wife act like you, her and your mom are immortal.   Life is too short for petty differences over nothing!

these guys need to grow up

These kids need to grow up and realize that they have one Mom and they won't have her forever,  The Mom may have been wrong to say some of those things but she still should be treated with respect.  I can't believe the things that are coming out of the son't mouth.  There will come a time, big boy when you will regret all that you said.  May God forgive you for treating her the way you do.

Disturbed.....

I totally think that this bride is ridiculous.... She needs to realize that this is his mom. It is not all about her.... If she cant get along with her in-law then she needs to butt out and let her husband have a relationship with his mom.. She will regret one day the fact that she has kept her husband from his mother... One day he might grow a set of balls and stand up to his new wife and realize that his mother will always be there for him... This bride is a controlling spoilled little brat and needs to get a life and quite controlling her husband like a puppet.......

the bride and groom

Quote From: puppychow

THESE FOLKS NEED TO MOVE PAST WHO SAID WHAT...COME ON NOW...ANGER IS SUCH A WASTED EMOTION....AND WHAT IF SOMETHING AWFUL HAPPENED TO ONE OF THEM THEY WOULD FEEL AWFUL...

LIFE IS TOO SHORT FOR THIS KIND OF PETTY STUFF...I HOPE THEY CAN GET PAST THE JUNK AND LEARN TO FORGIVE AND MOVE FORWARD AND STOP FINGERPOINTING AND NAME CALLING.....

i've watched this tape a couple times. it all seems that this is the mother in law's fault. but it's not. michelle is nothing but a troublemaker and the son is spineless.  jane is  trying to change but nothing seems to be said or done to the daughter in law and son.  it looks like michelle wants all the attention on her.  she likes all the drama. jane you don't need a son like that who's spineless. once the hurt is past and it will pass you will be ok. you have all your other family behind you. one day he will wake up and see just what michelle has done to rip you apart. dr. phil doesn't seem to be really fair. one minute he is against michelle and the next he is sided with her. it's both of them and the son doesn't think with his head to think about his mom either
