A Saudi groom has divorced his bride immediately on seeing her face for the first time when the photographer asked them to pose for pictures after their wedding. The new husband was said to be aghast when the bride removed her veil and smiled for the camera.
According to Dailymail, the man leapt to his feet in disgust shouting;
‘You are not the girl I want to marry. You are not the one I had imagined. I am sorry, but I divorce you.’
The groom said he had not been able to see his bride’s face before marriage, local daily Okaz reports, adding that the bride immediately collapsed in a fit of tears after the vocal divorce declaration. Panicked wedding guests stepped in to try to resolve the dispute, but their efforts were in vain.
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.
Many who heard of the jilting expressed their disgust and anger against the fickle husband on social media.
‘He caused her great pain through his irresponsible attitude, and he deserves to suffer.
‘Unfortunately, many young people today are interested only in looks and ignore values and morals.
‘May God give her a better husband who will appreciate her for who and what she is.’
‘He is not man enough to assume his responsibilities. He is totally, completely insensitive.
‘Nobody has forced him to marry her. He should have insisted on seeing her before the wedding and the engagement, and not wait until the wedding night.
‘May he always be a loser and may he be deprived of getting married at all. He is not a man and he lacks basic feelings.’
