What Twitter thinks is happening in this picture

Social media users are trying to explain why the bride seems so angry on her wedding day while the groom seems to be having the time of his life.


There are two pictures circulating on Twitter of a bride, the groom and the pastor who presumably officiated their wedding.

In the picture, the groom looks happy, but the bride looks angry while the pastor seems to be avoiding the bride. The pictures have been retweeted more than 2 000 times, with Twitter users trying to break down what they think happened before the pictures were taken.

The pictures were taken from a Nigerian movie, it turns out, and everyone in it is an actor, so we’re not looking at a marriage on the rocks before it’s even begun.

A few comments said this may have been an arranged marriage that favoured the groom. This explanation doesn’t, however, explain why she is angrily looking at the pastor.

Some think the pastor may have slept with the bride and spilled the beans, which is highly unlikely, judging by the look on the groom’s face, who we’d expect to be upset by something like that.

These were some of the comments:

“Uyamfuna.”

“Arranged marriage.”

“The poor guy bafethu akaboni lutho…” (The poor guy doesn’t notice a thing.)

“Lol for the first time in my life I feel sorry for the happy guy.”

“Wadla umfundisi.” (The pastor is sleeping with the groom.”

“If looks could kill 👀 the pastor would be rip.”

“It’s like an arranged marriage.”

“There’s clearly tension between the bride and the pastor.”

“The groom is in cloud 9 but the bride is very crossed. I thought wedding is the best gift to give your woman, clearly I was wrong.”

“I think someone got drunk and accidentally let slip a few details of what happened at the bachelor party.”

“Plot twist: Maybe the pastor is the groom’s ex.”

“Signs that you are getting married to a snake…”

“Can one null the union on the spot based on grave discoveries..in this case about the pastor.”

“Lol! What we need to know is what the Pastor said a minute earlier….. eish!”

“Mfundisi promised her marriage to get that booty.”

“When you married the wrong twin.”

“When you ask your Chief Bridesmaid to get your make-up kit from the car for photos & you see her fooling around with the handsome Best man!”

“She must be thinking. ‘I asked for flowers and they gave me party balloons!'”

What do you think went wrong?
