Cumberwedding; Is this the real life or is it a fantasy?



It's like a fairytale really, the whole Cumbertale wedding. You have a prince charming who meets a lovely woman, they fall in love and they marry. Only she got pregnant first, it's the 21th Century after all. Only what some fangirls seem to forget is that what they so love in every other Disney film, they despise when it comes to the man of their dreams. Literally their dreams because if they would think it would ever happen, meeting him, him falling in love with them etc. they had another thing coming.

Yesterday, Valentine's Day, Benedict Cumberbatch married the love of his life, Sophie Hunter. Every fangirl/fanwoman/fanperson was over the moon. That is, every sane person. Every other spiteful, hateful 'fan' girl was screaming their lungs out and was pulling her hair out. Not to mention tweeting/blogging about it.
Even the media is putting every fan down once again by saying we are 'all' in mourning and by posting every hateful tweet they could find. That there are most likely more happy tweets and blogs about the marriage no paper will ever says, or that most fans ask to respect their privacy by not posting the pap pics.




Why is it that certain fangirls react in that way, I thought in the very early hours of this morning when I lay awake next to my snoring husband? Probably because they've never experienced anything in their own lives, no deaths to a loved one, no divorces, no illnesses, nothing that is so called 'having a live' and so they project that onto a celebrity and think he has to live a certain way, or the way that is in their twisted little brains anyway.
That snoring husband by the way, my second husband, I met him only a month when after being divorced. Love doesn't wait really. What did I have to say? No wait I'm not ready for you? We went ahead took the plunge and went to live together after six months. That will be eight years this year.



Guess what? Life isn't that Disney film where the princess rebels, sings it out of her system, gets hitched and marries at age 16!!
But if it were you wouldn't be all that judgemental. Why is it okay in a Disney film for a girl to get married to a (stranger) prince so quickly but when it happens to your favourite celeb you cry and yell it's wrong!
It's real life! First of all you don't know how long they know each other and you're not supposed to, second it's none of your business!
If you think your celeb crush had such poor judgement on the love of his life and how he wants to spend the rest of his life, why on earth do you want to stay a fan of the man? Why spread vile, viscious hate all over the 'interweb' as Ben would say.
Do you honestly think putting him, his wife, their unborn child and his choices down all the time would make him change his mind and make him run toward you?
Quite the opposite direction I would think!

I have one advice for each and everyone of you: Re-read your Fairytales again! No prince charming ever married the Wicked Witch!
