Woman Finds Out That Her Fiancé Is In Love With Her Sister and Her Mother Wants to Attend Their Wedding

We can all agree that our families are undoubtedly the most important people in our lives. Whether by blood or by choice, our families are the most significant people we have in our worlds.

However, with important relationships of any kind, there is always the chance of drama erupting at any moment. One Reddit user shared a difficult situation she's facing with her family.

Redditor u/mommyinthemud posted her story in the AITA (Am I The A**Hole?) subreddit, asking the community for help. You see, u/mommyinthemud is the mother of two daughters: 30-year-old Jennifer and 28-year-old Hayleigh.

Jennifer was engaged to Sam until he called off their wedding because he had fallen in love with Hayleigh. Naturally, that fact alone caused a massive rift within the family.

Then things got even worse. After a year together, Sam and Hayleigh decided they wanted to get married.

Of course, this induced a whole new level of drama between the sisters and their parents. Their father took Jennifer's side and refused to give his blessing to the couple or walk Hayleigh down the aisle.

However, our OP was conflicted. She wasn't happy with how Hayleigh and Sam's relationship developed, but she still wanted to support her daughter on her wedding day.

On the other hand, our OP didn't want to hurt her older daughter's feelings. So, you can see her dilemma!

The Reddit community was divided, as always, but most people seemed to agree that our OP would indeed be the a**hole if she decided to attend Hayleigh's wedding. Scroll down to read the story in full and see what people had to say about it.
