Mom Ruins Engagement Announcement, Gets Kicked Out

Picture this: you’re announcing your engagement to your family, and everyone is happy for you, except for one person – your own mom. That’s what happened to a 25-year-old man who has been with his fiancée Tanya for five years. Tanya has an 8-year-old son, Alex, from a previous relationship, and this has always been a sore spot for the man’s mom. Despite her son’s love for Tanya and Alex, the mom has never approved of their relationship, often making insensitive comments. But when she crossed the line during the engagement announcement, things took a dramatic turn.
