TikTok creator Hailey shared her story with her fans, explaining that she was a guest at the wedding and when it came time for dessert she had eyes for the cake – but sadly it hadn’t been cut yet. Thinking her hosts had forgotten to cut it, she walked confidently to the table and picked up a knife.
She then sliced into the wedding cake between the figures of the bride and the groom, leaving friends in awe of her confidence – and completely unaware of the faux pas.
Sharing her story online, Hailey (@mediocrehailey/TikTok) captioned her video “my apologies to the bride and groom”, and described the incident.
According to the Mirror, the video was captioned: “Me, a guest at my friend’s wedding. Ignoring the brownie table and confidentially cutting myself a slice of her wedding cake thinking, ‘uh-oh! They forgot to serve it to everyone else’. I know better now, I hate myself.”
Soon Hailey was inundated with comments from fans, many of whom said they would never reveal their secret if they themselves had cut the cake.
One said: “You couldn’t pry this information out of me if I did this to someone at their wedding.”
Then a second wrote: “You have no idea how angry this is making me.”
And a third added: “This is funny but it really does tell you a lot about the type of person someone is.”
A fourth added: “This cannot be real.”
And another user agreed, writing: “Successfully making this wedding about you.”
And Mirror readers were quick to pile on with the criticism, one writing: “Did it not get fed and watered when the meal or buffet was served? Greedy, nasty woman.”
While another added: “She would have been wearing that slice she cut that would have wiped the stupid grin off her face. My brother got married 10 years ago and I’m still waiting for a slice (they took the cake home) maybe I should have helped myself…”
