Book Reader Question: Estrangement? (Spoilers)
A question for those who read the book:
I gather from other posts that Harris was engaged in the book, and that's why nothing came of Ann's relationship with him.
But here's my question: In the film it's clear that Ann and Lyla haven't seen each other for years, and that her daughters don't even know who Harris or Lyla are. They have to tell each other about their families, so it seems that they haven't been in touch. People don't generally lose complete touch with their bridesmaids. What was the explanation for why they stopped speaking? Did Lyla blame Ann for Buddy's death somehow? It didn't make a lot of sense. Thanks for your help.
