Despite being a happy occasion, wedding day decisions can sometimes be a sore spot among the couple's family and friends, with dress disagreements and guest list controversy marring the special day.

Love Island's Olivia Attwood has shared her divisive wedding opinion while on a podcast with Made In Chelsea's Jamie Laing - declaring that children shouldn't be welcome.

Olivia is set to marry footballer Bradley Dack, sharing details in her reality show Olivia Marries Her Match on the pair's preparations for the big day. It appears even if the 31-year-old had her "own children" they wouldn't be part of the nuptials.

The TV personality is known to share her unfiltered opinions, and this wedding belief is no different with fans divided over the view.

'I'm spending £20k on a new bathroom - but won't help my brother out with cash''I'm spending £20k on a new bathroom - but won't help my brother out with cash'

In a TikTok posted by Jamie, Olivia said: "Kids at weddings thing for me is absolutely unacceptable. Even if I had my own children, I wouldn't invite them."

Host Jamie shares the same view and immediately laughs as he says "I agree" and starts to say "I'm not having people..." before Olivia continues on her point.

She added: "I haven't got a baby yet, so I don't know that love that they talk about. But, when I see like the bride with this little thing hanging off her dress, it's little grubby hands, I'm like what the f**k.

"You know, Vera Wang, silk dress, and you put your little grubby chicken finger hands all over it."

Many fans agreed with the star and one shared: "Agree. I didn't want kids at mine. Someone brought theirs uninvited. They screamed throughout the ceremony. The mum wouldn't leave the church either."

Another added: "I've got a kid and totally agree my mum asked if she would be a bridesmaid… I ignored that question."

"Couldn't agree more!" said a third, while a fourth joked: "The parents have a better time when they're not there!"

However, not everyone agreed with Olivia, many defended their decision to allow kids at their wedding or the desire to include them in future nuptials.

One said: "I'm the opposite, weddings... kids sliding across the dance floor stuffing sausage rolls falling asleep on 2 chairs pushed together...I love kids."

"My son will be at mine and so will my nephew they are a part of my life forever so why would I not include them in my special day," shared a bride-to-be.

A mother said: "I get what she's saying but when she has her own and she feels that love like no other ahhh I cant describe it ...she'll know when she knows."

Some shared their experience at weddings as kids, which didn't seem to go to plan for anyone involved. Someone joked: "I ruined my parents wedding when I was 2 fr lol shouted does anyone want a polo during the vows, got in mud in my bridesmaid dress.. liv is right!"

Another added: "As a kid who went to weddings I either don't remember them, got extremely bored or traumatised from all the drunk adults waste of money & an invite."
