Talk about using someone else's name to stay relevant.

I still don't get what's wrong with her keeping the name, why would she want to raise her son with a different name to herself?

But George best remarried and divorced and to be a widow you have to be still married to the person when they die.

Why shouldnt she use her married name if she wants to. Some people change their name when divorced others dont. Look at Tina Turner her husband beat the crap out of her but all she wanted in the settlement was to keep his name

I see what you are saying but people put copy rights on names, just think it's living on someone else's name.

I forgot that he remarried..however Angie has not remarried, so until she does she has every right to keep his name...

So what if they do? She has a child with him who has his name and she raised the child so it's only right she is able to keep the same name as her child

[Crimson Dynamo]

Angie, what attracted you to the millionaire George Best?

[Braden]

It happens a lot of women in the public eye, and I don't really see that much of a problem with it. Once you marry someone famous, you start to build a brand for yourself around that name. Changing it after a divorce or death would be an inconvenience considering what they may have created for themselves.

On the contrary, Cheryl Cole got so much **** for chaning her name from Cheryl Cole to Cheryl Fernandez-Versini even though that was literally her name.

Personally i am really surprised how much personal stuff we all get to discuss. This is a womans own personal past and so what if she wants her son to carry his dads name, thats a good thing not a bad one and if that be the case, she is right to keep the Best name to protect her son and his identity. I cant say I am happy to hear the constant drivel about her past, especially when its all gone, but I do honestly think Callum has made an art out of bleeding his dads name for his own financial aims more than his mum has.

Don't shrug Niamh, I'm sure angie got money in the divorce and George paid maintenance for Calum.

But would you want someone using your name for their own gain and being know as your ex for ever and a day and if that person then does something bad you are brought up because of the link between names.

Not just in the public eye. I know plenty of normal people who divorced and the women never changed back to their maiden name, it's a hassle plus they share the name with their kids so it's not just the ex husbands name anymore

I don't see what George paying for his son has to do with the name?

Look I'm only just repeating myself now tbh why should she have to change her name and have a different name to the son she's raising?

Because she is only on bigbrother for being an ex wife and having a son who is on tv for having a famous father.
Don't get all bent out of shape you don't have to reply and I'm not having a melt down.

I'm not "bent out of shape" it's just that the answer to every question you asked me was always the same I'll leave it there then

[Withano]

Less of an issue than you think it is. Not uncommon at all.

My mother has been divorced from her first husband for over 20 years, but she still has his last name because their children have his surname, it's not an uncommon thing to happen.
