A tale of forbidden passion and star-crossed lovers— Milly and Micah are dreaming of a fairy-tale wedding but just one thing stands in their way: Milly’s mother believes Micah smokes too much weed and, as a result, will never be a good role model.
“Micah is a selfish, pot-smoking California dreamer. Due to his addiction, he is a stoner, a loser, he is not the man that I want for my daughter or the father I want for my grandson,” her mum Catherine said.
“The last type of person I would want Milly with is Micah. The idea of someone that’s so unmotivated being with Milly makes me mad. He actually is a deadbeat dad. He’s not there for his son, he’s not there for his partner. I want Micah out of Milly’s life to save her and Julian from a life of misery.”

While Micah agrees he smokes pot, he disagrees with Catherine’s claims he has a substance abuse problem, arguing it’s a lifestyle choice. “It would be fair to say that I do consume a lot of cannabis. I’m a typical California surfer, I like to surf, play bass and smoke pot.”
The relationship hasn’t always been strained. After their son Julian was born, Micah moved into Catherine’s house and the newly combined family were soaking up the joys of having a baby in the house. But things went downhill fast when Micah broke Catherine’s ‘no drugs’ rule and she asked him to leave.
Catherine hasn’t spoken to Micah since and Milly feels the tension of the fractured relationship. “My mum and I are like best friends. It’s a really hard situation. I’m torn between Micah and my mum.
“I really need my mum’s approval and love for Micah and I to move forward and get married. If my mum didn’t come to my wedding it would honestly break my heart.”
