Asplundh attempted to switch her Instagram handle from @katherinedrisc to @katherineasplundh.
But as Asplundh, who married Cabot Asplundh on April 27 in Palm Beach, Florida, learned, there’s more than one Katherine Asplundh.
The newly married bride reached out to the other Katherine Asplundh, who goes by Kate and already had her desired Instagram username, and offered to buy her handle.
The absurd exchange was shared on social media by Kate and immediately went viral.

“I was wondering if I could purchase your username from you. [I] just married and this is my new name!” Asplundh messaged Kate.
Kate replied, “Hi congrats! That’s my name too.”
She went on to inform Asplundh that she could be banned from Instagram if she sold her the handle.
Asplundh fired back, saying celebrities purchase handles from other users, “I purchased my username in the past actually that’s not true.
“Celebrities do it all the time that’s how they all have their handles as their full names.”
The newly bride then questioned Kate’s legitimacy, saying she did not believe there was another Asplundh family in America.
“I reported you to Instagram and they’re actually able to tell me your real name I really hope I don’t know you because that’s gonna be really embarrassing for you,” Asplundh raged.
“I’m asking you to change your username because you’re pretending to be someone you’re not. Which is illegal.”
Kate then reassured the seething bride that her name was, in fact, Katherine.
Asplundh again attempts to get the username by showing Kate a Facebook search of the name Katherine Asplundh.
“The family I just married into is the only Asplundh in America,” the bride fire.
Kate responded, “I’m not American.”
However, the bridezilla continued pressing and demanded “proof” that Kate was who she claimed to be.
