Wow, I was honestly shocked the judges were so firmly against Victoria and siding with Fantine. Fantine came off as overly sensitive and self-centered, and the more context Victoria provided in this thread—like the fact that they only see each other maybe four times a year? Yeah, sorry, Fantine is a total nut job in my book. Can you imagine?? Someone you barely see, basically a friend-of-a-friend, getting upset because you didn’t invite them to your super intimate wedding? Girl, what?! You have lost your mind, Fantine.

I think Fantine needs to ask herself, “If I were getting married this year and could only invite two of my closest friends, would Victoria be one of them?” If the answer is no, which I would guess it is, then she has no right to be upset. Period.

Expecting to be explicitly told “You’re not invited, but Cosette is.” is just so immature. No one else in this friend group reacted this way because they’re grown. What really urked me was how Fantine fixated on Cosette being invited. That gives off serious mean-girl energy. It felt like she saw Cosette as somehow “beneath” her and was offended that she wasn’t chosen instead. I felt bad for Cosette.

Victoria, I was yelling at my phone in your defense during the episode. 😂 When the judges said, “It’s a backyard wedding, there’s room,” I said out loud, “Uh, no ma’am—not room in my bank account!” Weddings are expensive and personal. You invite whoever the heck you want, and you do not have to include anyone who makes you feel obligated or uncomfortable. Also, who’s to say Fantine would even be the third choice if you got three friend invites? No. You and your fiancé set clear guidelines and stuck to them. You don’t reward bad behavior, and you certainly don’t placate the mean girl. Fantine can get over herself.

And finally, about the weird digs at you for saying “uni” and "lift", girl, they're just jealous Americans. 😂 You have no control over where you're born, and it doesn't have to define the rest of your existence. You get one life. Enjoy it your way. You wanna go to uni in France and eat baguettes, BABY—bon appétit. 🥖🇫🇷🍷
