Man calls off wedding after discovering his bride invited her ex as a “friend”

News Update

A wedding ceremony that was meant to be a joyous celebration ended abruptly after the groom discovered that his bride had invited her ex-boyfriend as a guest.

The bride claimed her ex was “just a friend” and thought it would be nice to have him at the event. However, her fiancé saw things differently and reportedly called off the wedding moments before they exchanged vows.

Guests were left in shock as the groom walked out, leaving family and friends in confusion. The incident has since gone viral, with many social media users debating whether the groom overreacted or acted out of self-respect.

Mixed reactions trail the bride’s decision

The story has sparked heated conversations online, with many criticising the bride’s decision to include her ex in such a personal and emotional event.

One commenter wrote, “Why is she even talking to her ex in the first place?” while another added, “Some women no dey learn.”

Others supported the groom’s decision, saying it was a clear red flag that the bride still had emotional ties to her ex.

Lessons on boundaries and respect

Relationship experts online have weighed in, noting that while exes can remain cordial, inviting one to a wedding, especially without mutual agreement, can easily cause tension and mistrust.

Many agreed that the groom’s reaction, though painful, reflected the importance of clear boundaries in relationships.

The incident has since become a trending topic, serving as a cautionary tale about communication, respect, and the limits of friendship after breakups.
