A 30-year-old woman was left in tears after her fiancé, a 37-year-old pediatrician, handed her a pack of toothpicks as her Christmas gift. The woman had gone to great lengths to secure a hard-to-find PS5 for her fiancé, but was left feeling humiliated and hurt when he presented her with the ‘gift’ in front of his family.
