Did he overreact?
A groom in Saudi has filed for divorce from his wife just two hours after the wedding. His reason for doing so was because his wife had shared some pictures to Snapchat on their wedding day.
They had an agreement in place that stated that she was not allowed to share any pictures on social media and because she broke this he filed for divorce.
The bride’s brother told Okaz: “There was a prenuptial agreement between my sister and her fiancé that she would not use social-media applications such as Snapchat, Instagram or Twitter to post or send her pictures.
“It was included in the marriage contract and became binding. Regretfully, my sister did not honour the pledge and used Snapchat to share pictures from the wedding ceremony with her female friends, resulting in the shocking decision by the groom to cancel their marriage and call for divorce.”
Only recently another groom in Saudi filed for divorce shortly after the wedding because his bride was too busy texting her friend to consummate the marriage.
Her relative spoke with El Watan and said: “The groom tried to get closer with her and more intimate, but he was shocked when she ignored him, not responding to his words and action.
“When he asked her if her friends were more important than he was, the bride answered that they were.”
