🔥 Internet Weighs In: Who Deserves Greta's Ashes? 🤔
Whew, talk about a family feud! 😅 This poor guy is caught between a rock and a hard place. 🙈 On one hand, he was practically a son to Greta and was there for her through thick and thin. 🤗 But on the other, Emily is her actual daughter, even if she was MIA most of the time. 🙄 It's a tough call, but it seems like the internet has some thoughts on the matter. 🤔 Let's see what kind of wisdom (or shade 😎) they have to offer in this messy situation. 🍿 Grab your popcorn, because these comments are bound to be juicy! 🔥
