Guess Who: Star wife who demanded an upgrade mid-flight!

No, we did not expect to learn of this star wife creating mid-air turbulence – wasn’t she supposed to be too young and far removed from the film world to even know what comprised a super-starry tantrum? Evidently, we thought wrong. The young lady has apparently been doing some growing up…and has ended up a li’l too big for her boots.
This became all too evident while she, her baby and their nanny were taking a flight out. While madam and the child were ensconced in business class, the nanny naturally was travelling Economy. Things were okay for a while and then our pretty, young mum decided she really had to have the nanny take over the baby. So off she traipsed over to inform the cabin crew that the nanny had to be upgraded to Business. Unfortunately for our star wife, not only did the airhostess politely refuse to sanction the upgrade, she even failed to recognise her! What’s worse for her ego, she was also offered a seat in Economy if she desired. This apparently irked our young madam no end. The senior flight attendant had to bear the brunt of her anger, as the lady raved and ranted and yes, also flung that – ‘Do you know who I am?!!’ – line across. Tch. Tch. Breeding, darling. Try and pick up a tip or two from your well-behaved star husband.

That star husband of hers should be a little worried too. Apparently, his young wife is sick and tired of being recognised by all and sundry only when he is by her side. Most other times, she gets royally ignored. So now, she is trying to go out of her way to carve her own image and identity. She has already started the process by turning up solo at events, just like she did at a recent awards show. Needless to say, she hardly made an impression. But she is soldiering on. And somehow we get the feeling that she will not be content being the customary interior decorator. This star wife clearly wants to be the star, nothing less.
