You won’t believe what this 3-year-old did in the MIDDLE of his parents wedding

When you gotta go, you gotta go.

Especially if you are three and recently fully potty-trained.

Which is exactly what happened when Hannah and Ben Lienert from Australia were just about to say their I do’s, staring lovingly into each others eyes, only to be brought back to reality with a thump by their three-year-old boy.

Just as his parents were about to say their vows, little Hunter declared loudly: “I need to poo!”

Needless to say, much as his poor mum is looking momentarily shocked, the crowds burst out laughing at the little boy’s urgent request.

Luckily, Hunter’s aunt was on the ball, and swiftly hustled the three-year-old to off the loo before an accident could happen.

Even though little Hunter’s timing was less than ideal, sure as parents we all know that even the best-laid plans don’t always happen the way you think they will when children are involved. “That is the definition of being upstaged I reckon,” says the celebrant before continuing with her job of marrying Hunter’s mum and dad.

A few days later the newlyweds uploaded the memorable clip to Youtube with the following caption:”Children and weddings don’t always mix, but they sure know how to make them memorable”.

And memorable it was. In fairness, though, when nature calls, it calls. Even if it is just before your parents say “I do”!
