‘My mother-in-law hired goons to throw red paint at me on my wedding day’

A couple’s dream wedding was left in tatters after the groom’s family reportedly tried to sabotage their big day.

Alexandra was due to marry her boyfriend on 18 February in a fairytale ceremony that quickly turned into a nightmare.

Her fiancee was born into a wealthy family in Mexico, and his parents had dreamed of him marrying a rich girl.

Due to Alexandra’s lack of family money, the in-laws launched a harassment campaign against her, threatening her and trying to bribe her with a blank check to leave her partner.

Things came to a head on their wedding day when her mother-in-law hired three goons “to throw red paint on the bride’s dress right before walking down the aisle”.
