Bride divorces new husband after wedding day prank but not everyone is convinced

The woman claimed she could no longer trust him after his wedding cake prank backfired.

A woman has caused a debate on Reddit after revealing she left her husband after his wedding day prank completely backfired.

The woman said she filed for divorce two days after her wedding after her husband pushed her into their wedding cake as a "joke".

The bride had initially caught her partner watching wedding prank videos months earlier and told him if he ever tried to do a prank on their wedding day, she'd break up with him.

"Everything went smoothly until the cake cutting. The whole room watched as I made the first cut and the photographer stood in front of us with camera in hand," the bride said on a Reddit thread.

"Suddenly I felt a hand on the back of my head, pushing me face-first into the cake. Not only my makeup but the whole wedding dress was ruined and the whole room laughed, my husband the loudest."

Humiliated, she said she then slapped her husband in front of everyone and ran off in tears.

'I can't trust him'

After hearing shouting from the hallway, she found her husband's brother, who then forced her husband to apologise to her, with the wedding festivities cut short not long after that.

In the thread, the bride then explained she got a ride home with her brother-in-law who told her that her new husband had exhibited that type of behaviour of ruining special occasions from an early age, breaking his own brother's cakes and presents and trying to humiliate him on his birthday.

"I decided to separate from him and file for divorce and informed [my husband] and my family about it," she wrote. "He just told me not to do that because it was just a harmless prank. I was spammed by both his family and mine that it would be ridiculous to end our marriage over this. but I see it differently."

She then said her trust in her soon-to-be-ex was completely broken.

"If he does something like this to me despite multiple requests not to do it even after promising he wouldn't do it then I can't trust him, no matter what he promises me," she wrote. "I have to assume that the opposite can and will happen and that he doesn't care at all how I feel about his decisions. This situation can be projected onto so many much worse situations where it would be important for me to be able to trust him."

'Tremendously fake'

People in the comments couldn't quite make up their minds about the situation, with most calling 'bulls**t' on the whole story, especially after the bride updated the post saying she had asked her brother-in-law out.

"There would be no need to file for divorce or get an annulment. The wedding licence wouldn’t have been filed yet. This story is B.S," someone else said. "Way, way way too similar to the one posted a few months ago," another said.

"If this story is true, OP asking ex’s brother out is truly deranged behaviour, and it can’t just be chalked up to 'in a bad place,'" another person pointed out.

"Tremendously fake. If you genuinely believe this, then I have a bridge or 12 to sell you," another joked.

And someone else shared an actual horror story of a wedding cake face smash they had witnessed themselves.

"We had a bride come into our ED a few months back because her idiot (hopefully now ex) husband smashed her face into their cake. What c**kwomble-groom didn't realise, is that because wedding cakes are heavy, cake makers use wooden dowels to stop the layers from collapsing, which is exactly what theirs had done," they wrote.

"This poor woman was wheeled into ED in her wedding gown, covered in frosting, cake crumbs, blood etc. with a dowel sticking out of her eye socket. Her scans were insane. It was a miracle she didn't lose her eye, or worse, considering c**kwomble-groom had nearly given her a transorbital lobotomy."
