Taking to Reddit to vent is the father of the bride who begins telling story by saying that her 32-year-old daughter has been divorced thrice already.
"She got married at 25 to the love of her life. I gave her $15 000 (R259 489,50) as help for the wedding. The marriage lasted three years," the father says.
He continues to say his daughter once again found love at the age of 30 and decided to tie the knot again in an intimate ceremony.

"She married the love of her life when she was 30. I gave her $5 000 (86 494, 05) for a much smaller, more intimate wedding. This marriage lasted one year," he adds.
The bride-to-be then became pregnant with a boy while she was married to the second husband, however, by another man who isn't her husband. "She married the guy that got her pregnant while she was married to husband number two. They divorced before my grandson was one," he adds.

Users of the platform jumped on the comment section to support the father and let him know that he is not wrong, with one saying, "You've already paid for two weddings and she's now a grown up with kids of her own. If she wants to get married again, she can foot the bill this time."
Another added, "You didn't have to pay for the first one. You were generous to pay for three. No reason at all to continue investing in something that has failed repeatedly."
