A woman has hit out at her brother's girlfriend and accused her of being a ‘gold digger’ after her ‘inappropriate’ behaviour over Christmas.
The unnamed woman shared her story to the Am I The A**hole (AITA) thread on Reddit to ask for advice following the altercation.
The woman claims her brother James brought his girlfriend of seven months, Lindsay to her home for the festive period.

When the couple arrived, Lindsey apparently made comments about how nice the decorations were – and asked how much they set her back.
Throughout the evening, the girlfriend continued to ask more inappropriate questions about money – like how much the house cost, how much money they earn, and how much his watch retails for.
The post continued to explain: “She even Googled one of our art pieces to see how much it sold for and started talking about how crazy it was that we spent that much, which frankly was very uncomfortable.
“My stepdad pulled my brother aside and asked if there was a problem, but my brother just said it was normal for her to do that but he did say he’d speak to her about it.
“On Christmas morning we all gathered round to open presents and thankfully, Lindsay didn’t say anything untoward, so I figured James had spoken to her about her intrusive questions.
“However, at lunch, we were talking about plans for January and Lindsay loudly said she didn’t know how we could afford to do anything in January as she added up the total we’d spent on gifts, and then proudly proclaimed the total amount.
"The whole table went silent, and honestly, I was equal parts shocked and annoyed that someone could be so ignorant.

“I looked at Lindsay and said ‘you are the world’s most diligent gold digger. Seriously, would you like to be the family accountant since you’re already tracking expenses?’
“Lindsay stuttered out an apology and tried to explain but my stepdad just changed the conversation and we moved on. She was mercifully quiet for the rest of dinner.
“After they left, my brother messaged me saying I’d really upset Lindsay and was out of line with what I said. I argued that he had said he’d talk to her and he clearly didn’t, not that someone should have needed guidance to know how crass her comments were.
“He is saying I owe both of them an apology, but I think Lindsay’s behaviour was disgraceful.”
