Aimee Woolley, a mum-of-three from the West Midlands, has admitted to spending £1,000 on her 11-year-old daughter’s primary school prom event.
Her daughter, Beth, received a lavish blue princess-style dress as well as fake lashes, tan and nails for the big evening.
Mum, Aimee, defended her decision, saying: “I took on an extra job as a cleaner to make sure I could pay for everything ... Even though I’ve been up at 5am every day to go to work and we held off decorating our house this year, it was all worth it to see the smile on Beth’s face.”
The tween then headed to a house of a friends where they enjoyed non-alcoholic sparkling drink and were given the red carpet treatment.
It sounds as if the mum isn’t having any regrets and spoke of their family’s delight: “My husband was dead against it at the beginning but when he saw Beth come down the stairs he changed his tune. He welled up he was so proud and now he can’t stop talking about it.”
