Man divorces wife a day after wedding

A Hwange man reportedly divorced his wife a day after their wedding. This is after an envelope with graphic pictures of his new wife in the arms of another man were sent to him by an anonymous person. 

The woman, Stella Mbwando reportedly confessed to sleeping with her boyfriend only identified as Nyathi two weeks before her wedding to Simbarashe Nheta.

A source who is a close friend to Mbwando said the two got married on 14 September and on 15 September their marriage was over.

“He (Nheta) chucked her out after he got the pictures and since then she has been staying at her parents’ home. I also hear that he has already instituted proceedings for a legal divorce,” the source said. The source alleged that the pictures might have been sent by Nyathi.

“He did not want her to get married because they have been seeing each other since 2008. I strongly suspect it was a way of getting back at her for going ahead with the wedding. But that kind of behaviour is very selfish. Look at what she has lost.”

The source described the pictures as very graphic. Contacted for comment the distressed Nheta said he was not going back on his decision.

“I am done with her. I was busy preparing for the wedding when she was doing this s***. Her relatives have tried to change my mind but I won’t,” he said. He also confirmed that he had taken up the matter with his lawyers.

“There is no way I can live with her so I want to formalise the divorce.”

Mbwando refused to talk about the issue saying she was stressed.

Please leave me alone I have enough stress,” she said.

Nyathi refuted the allegations made by the source and said he was equally shocked by the incident.

“I have nothing to do with the leaking of the pictures and I am very disturbed. I am also sorry for the trouble that it has brought them,” he said.
