How much ever progressive we think society has become, divorce and remarriages are still taboo in India. Moreover, it’s often the women who are judged for deciding to move on from a toxic relationship or remarry with the hope to find love again. And amid the glaring eyes and the insensitive taunts, it takes courage to get into wedlock again.
However, this woman and her mother are shattering all the walls that are stopping them from living their lives to the fullest.
Taking to Twitter, a user ‘@alphaw1fe’ tweeted a pic of her mother getting her Mehendi done as she’s about to get married, again.

This heartwarming incident sparked a debate on normalizing divorce and not judging divorced people.
Let us normalize widow/divorced women marrying again. Every lady mustn’t be stopped from living their dreams. You’re never late to do what makes you happy. Alhamdulillah for your mother. 💖

Divorce should be & must be normalised. F everyone who thinks otherwise. Woman have a right to live her life just bcz she has some kids doesn’t really mean her life is over now. Her whole is ahead of her. It’s so cool that her mother fell in love again. May God bless her.

Half of the folks would retweet this 🌻 idea on Twitter to sound woke but won’t be conducive to their own mother and sisters at home.
I tell you they are the real pricks of the social sphere. https://t.co/j01mC9BjIR— 🎯🌻 (@imperfect_abhi) December 15, 2021
What would you say about alimony when the woman was forcefully given divorce against her will?
There are N number of domestic violence cases in our country even today and maximum victims suffer silently,
What if they wish to get divorce don’t you think they should be compensated?— Yeh Dil Mange More 💖 (@Patilvaidehi_) December 16, 2021
And today is the wedding we’re all wanting to witness.
