A heartless groom reportedly demanded a divorce on his wedding day when he saw his bride’s face for the first time.
The Saudi husband apparently had a change of heart when his wife lifted her veil for a photograph on her big day.
According to Saudi daily newspaper Okaz, the man jumped to his feet and announced he wanted an immediate separation.
“You are not the one I had imagined,” he told her. “I am sorry, but I divorce you.”
The couple had both agreed to the arranged marriage without meeting face-to-face, Okaz reports.
“The groom said he had not been able to see his bride’s face before marriage,” the newspaper said.
“When he divorced her, the bride collapsed and the wedding turned into a night of tears.”
Shocked guests at the wedding in Medina, a city in western Saudi Arabia, reportedly stepped in to try and resolve the argument.
However, it doesn’t seem likely the pair put aside their differences in time for a honeymoon.
Meanwhile, another man in Saudi Arabia is seeking to divorce after claiming his wife kept ignoring his WhatsApp messages.
