It sounds like the set up to a horrible joke, but it actually happened in Medinah, Saudi Arabia.

According to the UK's Daily Mail, a Saudi groom and his brand new wife were celebrating their nuptials with family and friends when the photographer asked them to pose for wedding photos. Sounds normal right?

Well when the bride lifted her veil to smile for the camera, the groom freaked out. He reportedly jumped straight to his feet and started screaming 'You are not the girl I want to marry. You are not the one I had imagined. I am sorry, but I divorce you.'

Apparently the couple followed the popular custom of marrying without ever having met each other or even laying eyes on each other. The bride then wore her veil through the entire ceremony and only lifted it for the first time for that ill-fated photo.

So seeing his new bride's face for the first time was enough for this Saudi man to immediately divorce her. Which he did and left the bride in a fit of tears in front of all their guests.

I'm sure this woman is going to need some serious support from friends and family in the coming weeks, but I also think we can all agree that she dodged a major bullet here. This guy is clearly a jerk of epic proportions.
