MISTAKE ALARM: TikTokers Wed After Two Weeks of Dating
Sometimes mistakes are subtle, and you don’t see the error of your ways till months or years later. This one though was obvious before it even happened. Via NYP:
TikTok creators Trey Bell, 20, and Clara Bell, 18, recently went viral for reportedly getting hitched in October — after just two weeks of dating. The newlyweds, however, feel that giving their relationship half a month to simmer was more than enough time to tell if they were making the right choice.
“We spent every day together during that time and got married on the same day that Trey proposed the idea — we eloped,” said the teenage Louisville, Kentucky, native of their short phase as an unmarried couple, according to Kennedy News and Media. “When Trey first proposed the idea of getting married, I was pretty on board. I was like ‘That’s crazy,’ but we did it.”
Oh so not only did they get married after two weeks but they’re NOT EVEN OLD ENOUGH TO LEGALLY DRINK. Cool. How do your parents feel, child bride?
“Our families were certainly surprised,” Clara said. “It was surprising in a shocking way, like, ‘What?! You did what?!’”
In fact, Clara’s relatives allegedly weren’t even aware she was dating Trey. “So not only did I have to say I was married, I had to introduce them to my husband because they didn’t know him.”
Thankfully, Clara told Kennedy News, the families reportedly have given their blessings since then.
“They’re happy now. Trey met my parents; I’ve met his parents,” she said. “They’re super happy for us now, but at the time, they were just shocked and confused. I wouldn’t say they were shocked in a bad way though.”
ALright y’all, time to start the bets. I give it till next summer. Tops.
