This week, Irish influencer, Dominique Nugent revealed she has called off her wedding. The blogger was due to marry her long time love this weekend in Vilamoura, Portugal.
The couple got engaged in May of 2018 in a gorgeous spot overlooking Killarney Lakes.
However, followers had noticed she had not been posting at all over the past few weeks. As she had previously shared her wedding plans on social media it was unusual for her to go silent in the run up to her big day.
This weekend she announced that she has decided to split from her fiance and that the wedding was off in an emotional post.
Sharing a snap of her in what would have been her wedding dress she said; “To the wedding dress I’ll never get to wear. Today should have been our wedding day. It should have been the happiest day of my life.”
“I dreamed of this morning, getting ready with my bridesmaids, putting on this dress and my dad walking me up the aisle to meet you to start the next chapter of our lives together. We had it all mapped out, the wedding, the house, the kids, the growing old together. I was so excited for our future.”
“The past few weeks have honestly been the hardest of my life and at one stage I just wanted to not be here at all. I have never felt such intense sadness or been so blindsided by anyone, to be betrayed by the person I loved the most was the most heartbreaking thing.”
“I never thought I’d have to write a post like this to explain why we won’t be getting married. To have a relationship I kept private from here discussed so publicly only days after my world crumbled down around me was really tough for me. It still doesn’t feel real and I don’t know that it ever will.”
“6 years of my life gone in the blink of an eye and my best friend now a stranger to me. Right now I feel like I’ll never be able to get over this or trust anyone again but everyone tells me times a healer so I’m wishing the time away to hopefully feel normal again.”
“I’m so thankful to be surrounded by such strong women in my mam and sisters even down to my 5 year old niece who have all helped me so much more than they will ever know the past couple of weeks.”
