Woman asks if she was wrong to tell sister about stepsisters talking behind her back.

'AITA for telling my sister our stepsister thinks she’s not good enough for her fiancé?'

I have two stepsisters and a bio sister. My bio sister, Elia, is getting married soon. Our oldest stepsister, Hannah, hadn’t met Elia’s fiancé until this recent incident as she lives in Dubai and we live in London.

Elia’s future in-laws hosted an engagement party for them which Hannah came here for. Elia introduced her fiancé to Hannah, but then had to leave as her fiancé wanted to introduce her to the other guests. After she left, Hannah kept asking us if that was really Elia’s fiancé. My other stepsister kept saying “I know”.

Hannah kept cracking jokes about how Elia managed to trick him into dating her and how they didn’t match as a couple. At one point she said she would’ve thought he would want somebody more at his and his family’s level.

At first, I wasn’t going to say anything to Elia since I know it would just upset her and Hannah claimed to be joking but we’re all going to be bridesmaids and I know it’s going to come with some nice gifts and at least one free trip which I don’t think Hannah deserves after what she said. I told Elia and she was really upset that she started crying.

Her fiancé saw and now he doesn’t want either of my stepsisters at the wedding and has uninvited them from all pre-wedding activities.

This has caused a lot of drama in my family and my stepsisters and stepdad are really angry at me. My mum told me that sometimes it’s best not to say anything, especially since I’ve made Elia feel so insecure that she’s trying to convince her fiancé that they should just have a small courthouse wedding. AITA?

NTA. The f**k is with all these YTA’s? If I was put in the same situation, absolutely I would tell my bio sis the f**k my step sisters were saying. How cruel and mean of them. We all should be applauding your sis’s fiancé not taking their wicked stepsister sh*t and standing up for her. They’re just pissed they aren’t going to get free expensive sh*t.

I would be livid if my sister didn't tell me and let me spend tons to treat people who were being awful to me behind my back.

NTA. They were not 'cracking jokes', they are just jealous of your sister and protecting their insecurities at her. If I were your sister i would want to know and the fiance did the correct thing by uninviting them (kudos).

NTA , but it's cute that everyone's mad at you when Hannah literally could have kept her jealous mouth shut and kept all of this from happening.
