Where did it all go wrong, Christian?

A lot of "Mumsnet" posts in this thread.

IIRC he recently ditched his wife and newborn child for a go of the ginger one.

Indeed, all a bit sleazy if you ask me.

Assumptions or fact?

As you've picked on my post MGJ, which was one of the more sane ones posted, I would say fact. He left his wife and baby child, and knowing your somewhat provocative style on Pistonheads (touch a fuse and see what burns) I would ask do you have any facts to the contrary? If not, and I guess not, I'll stick by what I said.

..and there's the big dose of fail right there (notwithstanding the circumstances). Being penniless and single would be better (and being penniless is instant Geri Halliwell repellant).

40!! I could almost pass for his son and I'm only a year younger.

I prefer the AC Ace to the Cobra. Such a pretty car.

Christian Horner can date the Rolling Stones and take them to Macdonalds for dinner in a UniMog for all I care

Awful car. Awful man. Slightly odd couple.

I think they're perfectly matched as they've both did some nude modelling in the past, which wasn't their finest hour.

I can just imagine the conversation over dinner, 'Christian? I've got a confession to make...I did some nude glamour modelling when I was 16.'

'Yeah no, Geri, yeah no, so did I, yeah no!!'

This needs a broader airing. Thank you so much for posting it...made my day...is there a link somewhere that I could tweet?

They are apparently engaged:

Can't say Old Spice does it for me, but each to their own. I'm sure he knows some positive attributes that none of the rest of us are privy to

She is a lot better looking than his wife.

I didn't know that so I googled it.

It looks like she did quite a bit of it and hardly ever had her clothes on.

She doesn't seem to like working for a living.

I can't believe the list of "F1 sleazebags" above is so short. Some people on here have got very short memories... the sport is riddled with "unusual characters".

Why would you?

Got with Geri after leaving his long term partner, who just gave birth to their daughter too. And people thought the way he treated Webber was bad!

Sounds like a really nice chap.

That aside car looks very nice

Moving this back to the top...great vfm...

He should spend the money on getting his teeth fixed.

GH has more mileage than a Beirut Taxi, and it must be the equivalent of chucking a sausage down an alley when it comes to nocturnal activities.

I understand relationships break down, that's life, but to leave your partner as soon as she's given birth is pretty low. Even worse when you've opted to replace her with the town bike. I can imagine the conversation went like this when he broke up:

CH: I've decided to leave you
CH Partner: But you said you love me, and we decided to start a family and live the rest of our lives together!
CH: I'm sorry I've changed my mind
CH Partner: But we've been together for years, you promised when I got pregnant that you wanted you, me and a family
CH: I've found someone else
CH Partner: MULTI 21 Christian, MULTI 21!

I cannot imagine he will get to see much of the child either give the jet set lifestyle of F1 teams - can you see him at the weekly sat morning baby swimming club or up all night long for the 6th night in a row as the little one is poorly or just cannot sleep while you still have to go to work in the morning.

Seems a little unworkable really.

As for Gerry surely she was aware of his situation so to peruse it speaks volumes.

If you decide to have children then your life has to change, if you are not 100% sure about that then kids are probably not for you.


Anyway lovely car shame about the circumstances.

I'm just amazed that someone on a car enthusiasts' website couldn't recognise an AC Cobra, surely one of the most iconic automobile shapes of all time. Even my mum would have known that.

Maybe ginger will dump him in a few years when he looks too old, then trade up for a toy boy

Geri has had a string of engagements (mostly to out-of-the-limelight billionaires) that have came to nowt. Means nothing, except to try and some legitimacy to her shallow relationships.

Fabrizio Politi (funnily enough a business partner of Flavio Briatore) and Evgeny Lebedev (owner of the Evening Standard) are just two of her previous meal tickets she was reportedly going to marry before moving on to the next hanging branch.

Oh, and she's been shagged by Russel Brand, which places her in the 'ultra damaged goods' bucket as far as I am concerned.
