Are you related to Mimi? Her mother or sibling?

This might be one of the legit angriest posts I've ever seen on DCUM. I hope you find peace and come to accept this new marriage, at least for the sake of the kids.

Does anyone know if the former wife's family attended the wedding?

DP. The faux concern at anyone that disagrees with this is really a bit much. It’s a really weird situation no matter how hard you try and polish this turd. I hope you actually know these people and aren’t in some weird parasocial relationship with Tinsley.

Widowed men marry "too soon" every Saturday of the year. It's a thing men do.

What I think is weird is that people are pretending to have a case of the vapors that this guy got remarried - *checks calendar* - 2.5 years after his wife passed away.

Are you alright?

This picture is so cringey. I have twins and the way the second one is reaching in is exactly how my boys used to protect each other. Those poor babies. Too much change too quickly for them. I wish their dad had just focused solely on them for a few years. They needed it.

You read A LOT into that pic, Mom of Twin-Terrors.

They look pretty normal and happy here:

I have a friend who was widowed young (and suddenly) and she remarried within two years. She said she just really wanted a partner to experience life with and I get it. It doesn’t diminish her husband that passed or their marriage.

Her maiden name is Mercer. She kept Topper’s last name even after they divorced because it’s way more prestigious.

Tinsley is a weird name. Pretentious, which is the vibe I got from her mother when I used to watch RHONY. Timsley herself, however, seemed like a genuinely nice person.

Tinsley’s full given name was Tinsley Randolph Mercer. Her sister was Dabney Winston Mercer. These are pretty standard Richmond high society-type names.

+1. Adding that in the south it’s considered low class to have a normal trendy name. The middle name is often a family name or you go by your middle name.

It's not low-class in the south to have a normal given name like Anna or Alice as long as it is time-tested. It's low-class to have a trendy given name that is someone else's last name, like Emerson or Kennedy. There are more American girls with those names as first names than there are people in the world with those names as last names, LOL.

I am very familiar with rich southerner naming convention of stringing together a bunch of last names and calling it a day. While that does persist, it is perceived as overly pretentious, so you see lots of rich people just going with classic names like Anna and Alice to not draw attention.

+1 no one in the Kennedy family is naming their kid Kennedy.

Well Tinsley's cousin's name is Mercer so...

If you are Southern, you'll understand these two. Both are that crusty upper of Southern, Episcopalian, three or four generations deep and with the cool names to prove it. Though I'm surprised by the 8-year age difference.

Tinsley seems to me like a slightly more fashionable, media-hungry version of the rich, blond Southern mom/wife that exists in abundance in Atlanta, Charlotte, Richmond, etc. Husbands are always brunette, in some kind of family business, and ignore them.

They are both chasing the marriages they were hoping to get with Mr. Mortimer and #1 Mrs. Bovard.

This seems like an attempt at round two, with three convenient blond children wrapped up in the package that Tinsely didn't have to wreck her body to create. Easy peasy.

Wow. You are really angry. I am an Episcopalian and in Texas. And my name is normal. Many generations deep here including a town named after my family. We are not southern , but you need to shut the hell up on your presumptions about people. Tinsley appears to be a nice person, plus his children seem to accept her.
