15-6-2023 (BEIJING) A recent wedding in Foshan, Guangdong province, stirred up quite a buzz on social media. The commotion centered around the bride, who appeared to be completely adorned with gold bangles from head to toe, obscuring her face. The extreme extravagance of the display sparked heated discussions among internet users. However, the truth behind the viral image has now been revealed, as some netizens uncovered evidence of photo manipulation.
In accordance with traditional customs, many parents prepare gold accessories for their daughters’ wedding to ensure they marry with grace and elegance. Recently, a photo circulated online depicting a newlywed couple preparing to serve tea to their elders. However, the bride in the photo was adorned from head to toe with gold accessories, to the point where her face was covered.
It was a rather exaggerated sight! Some questioned whether it required extraordinary strength to bear the weight of the gold accessories and whether the bride could stand steadily under such a heavy load.
However, the truth behind the photo quickly emerged online. It turned out that the bride had only hung 60 gold bangles around her neck. Although her upper body was still covered with gold, her face remained visible, dispelling the notion of being completely covered in gold.
As the bride gained attention for her gold bangles, she revealed during interviews with other media outlets that the accessories were gifts from relatives. She wore the gold bangles while serving tea to numerous tables, admitting that it was quite tiring.
