She Was Dubbed ‘The Ugliest Bride in the World’

In matters of taste, there can be no disputes. This saying holds a lot of truth because what some find beautiful, others may find unattractive.

When a Russian couple shared photos of their special day on social media, they had no idea the photos would go viral for unexpected reasons. The bride’s appearance, particularly her chubbiness and size compared to the groom, drew ridicule from many. The internet soon overflowed with negative comments, turning the couple into objects of mockery.

Only a few close friends and family members shared their congratulations and stood by them.

Hurtful comments abounded. Some even speculated that the groom married her for money, a claim far from the truth.

This unfortunate event occurred about six years ago. Despite the passage of time, the photos still resurface occasionally, and the comments remain as harsh as when they first appeared online.

Recently, a reporter came across the viral photo of the couple and decided to investigate if they were still together.

To his surprise, the couple is still very much in love. What astonished him more was the bride’s incredible transformation since the photo went viral, where she was labeled “the ugliest bride in the world.”

Today, it’s hard to recognize her as the same woman mocked for her appearance. She has not only lost a significant amount of weight but also changed her hairstyle and fashion sense.

How many people can say they’ve undergone such a drastic change in their lives? Not many. Achieving such a transformation takes an incredible amount of dedication.

No one really knows what spurred her urge to change. After seeing the new photos, many believe social media pressure forced her to lose weight, although her husband loved her as she was.
