Abbie Chatfield has revealed the reason why people should avoid attending partner’s family Christmas celebrations.
The FBoy Island star, 29, took to TikTok on Friday to give fans permission to stay away from the ‘in-laws’ Yuletide gatherings.
Abbie said if anyone in the partner’s family had behaved negatively, their ill-will was good enough reason to avoid popping a cracker around the Christmas lunch table.
‘Just a reminder that if tour partner’s family are consistently awful to you, you don’t have to go to the holiday celebrations this year,’ Abbie said in the clip.
She went even further, suggesting that if the partner had a problem with the non-attendance, it’s probably time to starts looking for a new one.
‘And if your partner has an issue with you not going, then they are weak as s*** and they need to grow the f*** up,’ she said.

Abbie also argued that such problems unusually stemmed from the partner’s mother, and urged followers to stay away from ‘mamma’s boys’.
‘If you’re getting bullied by your partners family, you don’t have to go,’ she said.
‘Similarly, If throughout any time of the year… someone in their family, often the mother, is an a***hole, to you and your partner doesn’t stand up for you, maybe reconsider that relationship because they aren’t on your side.
‘Basically don’t date f***ing mammas boys, okay?’
It seems that Abbie’s followers agreed, with many jumping into the comments to praise the reality star for her forthright opinions.
‘This is the best speech of the year,’ one said, while another offered a similar: ‘Sing this loudly Abbie 100 agree.’
Abbie was quick to point out in the comments that her words were not directed at her own partner, Peking Duk star Adam Hyde.
‘Also this isn’t about Adam’s family fyi this is a realisation bc they are so lovely HAHAHA love them,’ Abbie wrote.

Abbie was recently slammed as ‘toxic’ after comments she made about International Men’s Day.
She took to Instagram to criticise men who complain they are ‘not recognised enough’.
‘Isn’t it good that International Men’s Day was, like, two or three days ago now and haven’t heard a peep from them,’ Abbie said sarcastically in the clip.
‘I’ve seen some men go “no one does anything for us.” Who organises International Women’s Day? It isn’t the f***ing men.’
Abbie said that International Women’s Day was in the public eye because it is women who organise events to recognise it.
‘Who’s making all the cupcakes, b***h? The women. Who’s organising all the morning teas? The women.
‘And if your partner has an issue with you not going, then they are weak as s*** and they need to grow the f*** up,’ she said

Sorry that you guys can’t f***ing organise one day. Sorry that you can’t make a f***ing Betty Croker Packet mix. Figure it out.’
Abbie’s post was met with a spirited debate in the comments, with many fans calling the reality star ‘toxic’.
‘How toxic is this?’ one follower asked, while another chimed in with a similar: ‘Wow this is beyond distasteful and disrespectful, why so much hate?
‘No wonder men find it difficult coming forward in conveying and expressing their feelings.’
One continued the sentiment, suggesting that Abbie harboured ill-will towards men.
‘Regardless of the context in your post. The fact you posted it showcases your hate for men,’ they wrote.
It wasn’t all negative however, with many fans taking the time to throw their support behind Abbie’s controversial statements.
