A Divorce On The Wedding Day
Saudi Husband divorces
bride during wedding after seeing her face
A Saudi groom has divorced his bride on
their wedding night after seeing her
face for the first time when
the photographer asked
them to pose for pictures. The couple, from the Western Saudi town of Medinah,
had agreed to marry each
other despite having not met face to face – a popular custom in certain Middle
Eastern countries. But when the bride removed her veil and smiled for the
camera, her new husband leapt to his feet in disgust. ‘You are not the girl I
want to marry,’ he declared. ‘You are not the one I had imagined. I am sorry,
but I divorce you.’ According to local daily Okaz, the bride immediately
collapsed in a fit of tears as panicked wedding guests stepped in to try to
resolve the dispute.
But their efforts were to no avail. ‘The
groom said he had not been able to see his bride’s face before marriage,’ Okaz
reported. ‘When he divorced her, the bride collapsed and the wedding turned
into a night of tears.’ News of the jilting was met with anger on social
media. Afra wrote on one social media network: ‘He caused her great pain
through his irresponsible attitude, and he deserves to suffer.
