Andrea McLean responds to mean Tweet about her engagement

If you can't laugh about things what can you do?

Aww, Andrea McLean is engaged again!

But even though she is on cloud nine, others have been less encouraging.

No sooner had she posted the news of her great future with a picture of her cosying up to her husband-to-be Nick Feeney, and the naysayers – as usual – were hitting out.

And on Friday’s Loose Women she addressed one of the mean tweets she had received.

“Can I just say a HUGE thank you for all of you who have been in touch and sent messages of congratulations to me and my engagement announcement yesterday,” she began, before Linda Robson read some of them out.

But then she revealed that not all of the messages had been positive.

“One tweet came in, Steph: ‘Seriously, she has been married twice, don’t think I’d be making such a big deal.'”

While factually correct, it’s not exactly the nicest of things to say when someone is over the moon, is it?

But Andrea dealt with it like a trooper.

Taking a second to compose herself, Andrea said: “Steph, no, I get it, I totally get it.

“I didn’t think that either, but then it happened and it’s all rather wonderful and I’m enjoying all the fuss.

“So there we are.”

Luckily, Steph’s mean tweet was one of few that didn’t wish Andrea well.

All the best, And!
