22-YO Woman Found A REAL Prince At A Night Club And Then Had A Fairytale Wedding!

Woman-Marries-Prince

Every young girl is at one point in her life told that one day her Prince Charming would come and sweep her off her feet. And, then we grow up. It is later when we adult, we stop believing in those stories. Stop believing in the idea of a “Prince Charming”. Some lucky girls do find theirs, but not everyone.

But, it came true for African-American Ariana Austin when she met her real life Prince of Ethiopia, Joel Makonnen.

About 12 years ago, in 2005, they met at a nightclub in Washington D.C. named Pearl. Joel aka Prince Yoel was 23-year-old when he saw a 22-year-old Ariana.

The two got hitched on September 9 in a royal wedding and the pictures are winning our hearts, and restoring the dwindling faith in fairytales.

1. They had a traditional Ethopian wedding and Ariana had converted her religion, days before the official ceremony.

2. Ms. Austin told New York Times, “I think we both had this feeling that this was our destiny.”

3. “But I felt like I had things that I had to do.”

4. Prince Yoel, at first, didn’t reveal his royal descendance.

5. Five minutes after their meeting he told her that she would be his girlfriend and it came true.

6. Mr. Makonnen’s pick-up line to her was, “I said, ‘You guys look like an ad for Bombay Sapphire,’ or whatever the gin was”.

7. She’s so beautiful.

8. These two are making us believe in love like this.

9. The wedding was royal affair and the pictures say so.

10. That’s the Ethopian Church.

Prince Yoel was born in Rome to Prince David Makonnen and Princess Adey Imru Makonnen, who were living in exile from Ethiopia. He grew up in Switzerland.

The Prince works in Otsuka America Pharmaceutical’s legal department of , and Ms. Austin works in philanthropy at the Executives’ Alliance for Boys and Men of Color.

We wish the two a very happy married life.
