A Congolese man, simply identified as Luwizo, has tied the knot with beautiful identical triplets.
The polygamous man from Kalehe, South Kivu, in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, recently married triplets Natasha, Natalie, and Nadege in a colourful wedding ceremony.
The 32-year-old groom said he met one of the triplets called Natalie via Facebook, chatted a while, fell in love with her, and decided to meet her in person, Afrimax English reported.
He said that after Natalie introduced him to her sisters, Nadege and Natasha, the duo soon fell in love with him too.
Luwizo said he was shocked to meet three identical women after visiting Natalie’s house to formalise their marriage.
Speaking on the first time he met Natalie’s identical sisters, Luwizo said: “I was very much surprised that I almost fainted. It seems like I was dreaming!
Asked about how they handled the situation, one of the triplets said: “When we told him he had to marry all of us, he was shocked. But because he had already fallen in love with all of us, nothing could stop our plans since we were also in love with him.
“Even though people considered it impossible for three women to share one husband, to us, sharing everything has been our life since childhood.”
Luwizo said although his parents didn’t approve of his decision and decided not to attend his wedding, he has no regrets whatsoever going forward with it.
The four enjoyed song and dance after exchanging wedding vows, and the polygamous man said he is happy with the union.
“You have to lose something in order to gain another. In addition, one has their preferences and their own way of doing things. So I’m happy to marry the triplets no matter what others think. My parents despised my decision that’s why they didn’t attend my wedding. But all I can say is love has no limits,” said Luwizo.
