In sickness and in health - or not

An Indian bride has stunned her family and wedding officials by marrying somebody OTHER than the man she intended to marry.

This all happened in Uttar Pradesh in India, where the bride and groom turned up as expected at the venue.  The groom, who was epileptic, had a seizure at the moment he reached out to put a garland on his bride to be, and he had to be taken to hospital.  So naturally you'd expect his fiancee to hot-foot it to the hospital too?

Not a bit of it - she was apparently so angry that he had kept the information about his condition from her that she decided to marry someone else then and there.  She asked a guest, who was a member of her brother-in-law's family, to step in and marry her instead.  He agreed!

When the original bridegroom recovered and returned, he pleaded with his former fiancee to still marry him, but by this time she was married to the other guest.

Well, at least they didn't waste the big day, eh?
