A bridesmaid has revealed that she was asked by the bride to have an abortion when she told her she was pregnant before the wedding.
Shared in a 'wedding shaming' group on Facebook, the post, which was written by an unnamed woman, detailed the shocking exchange of words that resulted when the mother-of-one told the bride she was expecting a baby.
The shocking post detailed that the bridesmaid, who was always told she would never be able to have children, thought the bride would be excited to hear her great news.

Yikes! The unnamed woman shared a post in a group on Facebook. She revealed that when she told the bride she was pregnant, the bride suggested that she get an abortion
Bizarre: The bride's mother subsequently messaged the pregnant bridesmaid to tell her she had her 'support' no matter what she chose to do
However, the bizarre post detailed that when the bridesmaid told the bride that she was expecting, she didn't receive the kind of response she was hoping for.
Instead, the bride told her bridesmaid that she would be 'so stressed' trying to get a dress fitting on her own.
The bride also reiterated the fact that her wedding was going to be 'kid free'.
She added that the wedding would be 'difficult' for the pregnant woman, before suggesting she get an abortion.
The post read: 'So about a year before the wedding, I found out I was pregnant. I was always told I couldn't have kids and so obviously my daughter not planned but I was over the moon.
'So I told Kate, expecting excitement, right? Nope. She immediately told me that I was going to be so stressed trying to get my bridesmaid dress fitting on my own since I'd have to do it after everyone already had theirs (I was due in April, wedding was in June).
'She reminded me that it was a kid free wedding, and then after thoroughly explaining how difficult her wedding would be for me, she said (verbatim) "so don't you think it might be better for you to have an abortion?"
'I had to read that one a few times,' she added.
Confused, the bridesmaid added that she asked the bride if she really meant what she had said.
She added: 'I asked if she seriously just suggested I get an abortion to make her wedding go more smoothly???? And she told me I was ruining my life and then called her mom on me to tell me to have an abortion.
Shocking: Since the post was shared in the Facebook group, it has gathered a lot of attention. One Facebook user called the bride 'evil' while another said the scenario was 'disturbing'
'(Her mom texted me and said congratulations and said she was always there to support me no matter what I chose and to call her if I needed guidance).
'Added bonus, one of her friend that I was friendly-ish with texted me later on to ask if I had aborted because if I had a baby at 21 he could never date me and he really saw a future for us,' she said.
Since the post was shared to the Facebook group, it has gathered quite of a lot of attention from fellow members of the group who were shocked.
One user commented on the post to reveal that they found the story 'disturbing'.
They said: 'I'm totally pro choice, but to ask someone to have an abortion in order to make sure her wedding goes smoothly is like really disturbing.'
Another user mocked the bride for asking so much of a bridesmaid. 'How dare your life continue while I plan my wedding!!?!?!? Unbelievable! Some people,' they said.
'Congrats on the baby girl and I hope you have much better friends now,' they added.
A third Facebook user dubbed the whole scenario as 'pure evil', while another said she couldn't believe it.
They said: 'Abortion is a personal decision - I can't believe she drew that many people into YOUR decision about your pregnancy, especially when you had made it clear you had decided to parent.
'All for her own selfish reasons and no actual consideration for you. Gross,' they added.
