In a post by @thesamarhores on TikTok, the lady detailed how she and her husband married at 23.
She said:
“In January 2020, just before the pandemic, we met at a bus stop (Obalende, Lagos) on our way to work. We clicked instantly and became very close friends. We spent hours talking and texting every day. In fact, we met at the same bus stop on our way to work every day for about a month.
“In Sept 2020, I moved to Ireland for school but we remained in contact and continued building our friendship virtually. In January 2022, Sam moved to Ireland and we became attracted to each other. In April 2022, we started dating. A few months later, Sam asked me what I thought about getting married. I was open to the idea.
“At the time, Sam was 22 and I had just turned 23. We got married in April 2023 after dating for exactly 1 year.”
