So I'm not sure how to handle my uncle. Invitations are going out in a week.
He is in the process of divorcing his current wife (auntie #6), who lives on a different continent and does not have permission to re-enter the US based on her visa status. Given the marital status, I didn't give him a guest.
He is coming to our wedding with his daughter and 3 grandkids. Somehow he just RSVP'd on our website (didn't know it was active) for everyone and then for a date for himself. It's a former FI of his from 20+ years ago, who lives on the opposite coast. Not wanting to break etiquette, I called another uncle to just ask if he was "seeing" this other woman again, and he said no, but he would double check. Uncle 2 got back to me and said he hasn't seen or talked to her, but saw on FB that she just got divorced again. typically she is his rebound fling in between marriages (basically, she is leap day, comes around for one day every 4 years), but he hasn't considered her anything since the engagement broke. So technically not a social unit for over 20 years.
How should I handle this? I didn't give him a date in my initial count, and my invites are stuffed and labeled.
I'm irritated that he assumed he had a date, and somehow RSVP'd without an invitation. If it was an actual relationship, I'd invite her, but there hasn't even been contact between the two of them since her divorce!
If it happened naturally, and at Christmas he said "Oh, Linda and I are seeing each other again!" I'd be fine and say "bring her." I think I'm just annoyed....
