Kuwait City: Stupid - the six letter word has emerged as the reason behind what is billed as the "quickest divorce in Kuwait, local media reported Thursday.
According to reports, a Kuwaiti couple got divorced just minutes after getting married. The incident occurred earlier this week but came to light after the case went viral on Twitter.
Citing Arabic portal Q8 News, Step Feed reported that the bride got upset after the groom insulted her for tripping while walking out of the court hall. The man, instead of lending her a helping hand called her “stupid” for stumbling.
The groom's reaction to her falling on their wedding day angered the bride who walked right back into the courtroom and demanded a separation.
The incident which went viral on Twitter received mixed reactions.
“If this is how he acts right at the beginning, it’s better to leave him”. Another stated, “A marriage with no respect, is a failed one right from the beginning", a woman wrote on the social media site.
Some others reacted to the whole thing with humor, tweeting, “She’s nitpicking for a divorce.”
A recent survey in Kuwait had revaled that the reasons for divorce - outside the traditional reasons - include "interest-driven marriages" which suggests that newlyweds get married for the loans and financial assistance provided to them.
