Well, that escalated quickly! Imagine thinking the biggest revelation post-wedding would be about your spouse’s Netflix habits, but instead, you find out they’re not the gender they claimed to be. This was the shocking reality for one groom in Indonesia when he discovered his bride was actually a man, just 12 days into their marriage.
Keeping secrets in a relationship? Sure, it happens. Maybe you hide how much you spent on that new outfit or pretend you haven’t already watched the next episode of your favorite show. But concealing your true identity? That’s a whole new level of mystery, right?
For AK, a 26-year-old man from Indonesia, the truth unveiled itself in an unexpected twist that sounds more like a soap opera than real life. He and his bride, Adinda Kanza, had been dating for about a year after connecting online. Fast forward through the wedding bells to the honeymoon, where suspicions began to arise. Why the aversion to intimacy? Why the reluctance to mingle with family?
It didn’t take long for the newlyweds’ marriage to hit a serious snag. Less than two weeks in, AK discovered his new wife was not a woman. With the support of his family, he turned to the authorities, sparking an investigation into this bewildering case.
The police noted Adinda’s convincingly feminine appearance and voice. “If you look at their wedding photos, Adinda looks exactly like a real woman,” they remarked, pointing out how well he played the part with his jewel-adorned head and meticulously applied makeup.
Decked out in a stunning red gown next to AK’s matching suit, Adinda certainly looked the part of a blushing bride.
The police added, “He also has a gentle voice and tone, so there was no suspicion at all about him being a woman.” However, the reasons behind Adinda’s deception were even more startling than his disguise. Local media reported that he had married AK with the intent of stealing from his family.
Once the bizarre news broke, police confirmed Adinda’s true identity through his father, whom Adinda had claimed was long missing. The dad’s revelation? His child was indeed male.
Now facing fraud charges, Adinda could see up to four years behind bars. As the investigation continues, one can only imagine the rollercoaster of emotions AK must be experiencing. From wedding bliss to this bewildering betrayal, it’s a reminder that sometimes, truth really is stranger than fiction.
