Bride Gets Abandoned By Partner Of Four Years On Wedding Day After His Mother Finds Her 'Short' And 'Ugly'

A Tunisian bride got dumped in the middle of her wedding after the groom’s mother saw her and complained that she was short and ugly.

Lamia Al-Labawi has been receiving messages of support from around the world after she took to Facebook to share the sad story of how what was supposed to be the best day of her life turned into a nightmare.

Lamia said her partner of four years left her at the altar after his mother said the bride was not attractive enough for her son.

The groom’s mother had only seen photos of Lamia before and was apparently very disappointed after seeing her in person, calling her "short" and "ugly".

But what shocked the guests was the groom’s reaction. He took his mother’s side, and despite the pleas of multiple people attending the wedding, abandoned Lamia and left with his mother.

Lamia said she was very embarrassed and could not look people in the eyes after the incident.

She said she is an "orphan" and preparations for the wedding with the love of her life had cost her a lot of money.

The people who read her story started pouring in messages of support, telling her to keep her head up and realize that the man wasn’t worth marrying anyway.

"With love and brotherhood, I tell you, raise your head and face the world with all your might," Tunisian theater actor, Hedi Al-Mejri, wrote to Lamia. "You did not lose a man. You lost an object that could have been a curse in your life. You gained irreplaceable comfort and freedom. Do not be broken and do not say that you are an orphan."

Another user wrote: "Beauty they say is in the eyes of the beholder …… she’s actually beautiful but not to him. Actually better now than never."

Overwhelmed by the outpour of support, Lamia recently put out a video thanking everyone for the love and kind words of encouragement.
