The controversial incident took place in Udu Local Government Area of Delta State, on Saturday, October 29, Daily Post reports.

A close friend of the bride who pleaded anonymity, reportedly disclosed to Vanguard that Roseline dumped her husband for an old flame who showed up at the wedding.

The friend said, “I believe she did what she did because she saw the previous man in her life at the reception.

“We heard that he had earlier promised to marry the bride, but he later travelled to Lagos and never showed up again.

“When the bride waited for a long time and he (former suitor) was nowhere to be found, she decided to marry another man, who was ready although she still loved her former suitor.

“So when her true love showed up at the reception without notice, the woman saw him and decided to call it quits with her husband to follow her heartthrob.”

Roseline reportedly fled her wedding reception screaming, “I am no longer interested” while being chased by her 41-year-old husband who was also pictured kneeling and pleading with her.
