Brazilian woman who married herself receives 1,500 marriage proposals after filing for divorce

Suellen Carey, a Brazilian woman who made international headlines last year for marrying herself in a symbolic ceremony, has now attracted global attention once again after filing for divorce—only to receive an overwhelming 1,500 marriage proposals from admirers across the world.

A Unique Journey of Self-Love

Carey, a model and influencer, became a symbol of self-love and empowerment when she decided to take an unconventional step by marrying herself in a lavish ceremony London in 2023.

Her decision to marry herself, also known as “sologamy,” was a public celebration of independence, self-acceptance, and personal growth.

For Carey, the ceremony was an expression of her belief in the importance of self-love before seeking romantic love from another person.

“I wanted to show that we don’t need to wait for someone to complete us. We can complete ourselves,” she stated at the time of her wedding. “It was a message of self-respect and valuing who we are as individuals.”

Filing for Divorce

However, just a few weeks ago, Carey made headlines again when she announced that she was filing for divorce from herself.

The move, while surprising to many, was done in good humor, as Carey cited that she had “grown tired” of her own company , terming it as boredom and was ready to “move on” from the symbolic relationship.

Carey posted about the decision on social media, sparking a wave of mixed reactions.

While some praised her for her honesty and ability to poke fun at the situation, others questioned the seriousness of her initial commitment to sologamy.

Speaking about her decision, Carey explained, “I learnt that while self discovery is important, knowing when to close a chapter is crucial too. It was a valuable experience but I feel ready to move forward.”

A Flood of Marriage Proposals

Soon after her public announcement of the “divorce,” Carey’s story caught the attention of the media, and it didn’t take long for her inbox to be flooded with proposals from men—and some women—around the world.

” I never imagined that when I divorce myself, so many unexpected things would happen.

Receiving more than 1000 marriage proposals (yes, you read that right) from the people around the world was something that surprised me.

When I married myself, it was to celebrate self love and self knowledge. But overtime I realised it was time to follow new paths.

This experience showed that self love is the basis of any relationship and love between two people only makes sense when we’re truly ready.

Thank you all for the affection,messages and gifts.

Now I’m ready for the next chapter. Will the real “happily ever after” come? She said.

“I received more than 30 bouquets in the last public days, and I promise I’m surprised. “She added.

The proposals ranged from heartfelt and romantic declarations of love to light-hearted and humorous requests.

Many expressed admiration for her confidence and independence, while others saw her symbolic divorce as an opportunity to connect with someone they viewed as courageous and forward-thinking.
