A 70-year-old citizen of Taif, a city in Saudi Arabia, Awad bin Aouaimer Al-Thouaibi, got the surprise of his life when his two wives egged him on to get married a third time, and that too to a younger woman.
The wives not only made the suggestion but also offered help in the form of arranging the marriage.
Al-Thouaibi told local media that he could not believe his ears when his wives came up with the idea.
“First, I thought they were pulling a fast one on me. However, they looked serious about it and said they want to do that out of love and respect for me and want to make me happy.”
The wedding ceremony was held in a Taif hall under the supervision of none other than the two wives.
A joyful Al-Thouaibi was all praise for them as they kept their promise and made all the arrangements for the D-Day.
The newlywed couple took off for a honeymoon trip soon after the marriage.
“I will never forget what they both did to make me happy,” added Al-Thouaibi.
However, while some female readers might frown upon the idea and cast doubts on the mental fitness of the generous wives, there may be a section of “thankful” women who would like to surprise their hubbies similarly.
