What woman said at husband's second wedding
In the video, the woman was dressed in an emerald green dress to match the bridesmaids. She had nothing but sweet and loving words for her co-wife.
While giving her speech, the mature first wife noted that she was not jealous of her and she encouraged the new wife to take very good care of their husband.
In her words:
"As introduced, I am the first wife of Yassin. I am not jealous. I welcome you, my co. This is the testimony. I have given you the husband. The wife is pretty, very jovial. In Islam, we were told up to the fourth one. If you are unable to, just know I have already opened the way. I love you, Yassin, Husla, I love you even more, take care of Yassin."
Her hunk husband and the bride laughed as the first wife walked away while guests cheered her on.
