An Arranged Marriage Ceremony with Romania's Teen Witches
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 1 окт 2018
- A few years ago, Broadly’s Milène Larsson met the supposedly most powerful witch in Europe, Mihaela Minca. This year Milène is invited to Mihaela’s son Antonio’s lavish wedding. He is 17 and is arranged to be married with a young virgin witch named Beatrice, who is also his cousin. But can the witch tradition of arranged marriage to a relative work in today’s world?

Anyone else notice how the groom who was allowed to continue his education and can speak almost perfect English and the bride wasn't even allowed to talk for herself.
@@kaumiegoring7654 so what if that's the case in more than one culture? That doesn't make it right
not trying to say that what they do it wright but the lady said that all her children even the women had all went to school till age 18 just not the girl that was getting married .
kaumie goring Romania is in Europe. Not Asia or Africa.
It's so sad to me bc you'd expect this society to be a matriarchy bc of the power being in the women's hands, but they're still forced to submit, like, what? Aren't they the ones with power here? Why isn't she given a voice?
Also, the lady’s daughters will finish high school, but his son is marrying a girl that didn’t.
Ok so when the girl was 7 years old, the auntie already knew she was the right one for her son. But after the marriage she realized she was not. 😒
Great witch!
Imagine being 7 and you meet your cousin for the first time and your aunt is just like "Yup, she's the one"
And now this woman’s life is ruined and the whole community will pass judgement on her and her family. Gross.
Good point! 😄
Don't forget tht they are *COUSINS*
"greatest witch in Europe" 😂
Funny how Mihaela is so adamant about her own daughters finishing high school and being at least 18 when they are married, but is (was?) completely fine with having a 17 year old high school dropout as a daughter in law. Some weird double standards there.
Its all BS
They live lavishly. Hopefully the couple is as comfortable since they have no education
her son was 17. The bride was already 18
It’s a shame cos my family has huge double standards and i grew up on that
@@simicio1924 Seems like even after 100s of years they experience being othered. Why do you guys not accept them?
That poor girl looked like she was about to start crying at like ten different points and that boy looked like he was about to have a panic attack. Thank God they managed to get out of it
@bangfangbang their wedding was over the top. I think any couple would feel overwhelmed and want to cry with all those activities and pressure. Even walking over the glass bridge was stressful.
Imagine playing with ur cousin and then ur family is like “ yep they should get married” 💀
Mega OOF
Your not ur! Ur sound the vampire sound at the end of the Buffy credits. Phonetically your lazy choice is inaccurate.
@@ingriddubbel8468 *sounds like *Phonetically,
Come back when you learn proper grammar and how to use punctuations.
Draconaise Sin 😂 thanks
Pakistanis know this all too well
So basically both the mother's ruined a young womans life.
And mans life
@@user-cw1qy2ij4w Not as much because, the girl's family has to return the dowry and pay for the wedding. Also Beatrice could now be seen as a failed bride which would make people hesitant to buy her marriage...
Mew Twaila Paying for the wedding is shit. I hope the gypsy tribunal doesn’t agree to that
clod8 true but she was just pointing out facts of that certain religion. We have gypsies in America but she was confirming European Gypsies belief.
Dont that’s obvious. But hear me out. You are not in their position. Sometimes we sacrifice A LOT for our families and religion. You could tell both of em didn’t want to get married to one another. But they did it anyways. You can look further in to European Gypsies and their beliefs. And try to understand where there coming from. You can tell in this video that women are literal objects! They sold their daughter.
The Mothers choose the bride who must be a pure virgin, to marry her son. It’s very harsh but that’s their religion/belief. The Mother just wants her “Witch” bloodline to be pure. Even if that means HER SON MARRY HIS COUSIN.
But the main point that I’m staining is
MOTHER has the LAST WORD.
all they say is 'Beatrice will be a great wife to Antonio' not 'Antonio will be a great husband to Beatrice'.
I was thinking the same. And they pay to have her. Like she it's an object
I think they are now divorced
@@moonshine2639 that’s how marriages have always worked. They pay money to the brides family for her. That’s what marriage literally is- the father giving his daughter away to her new husband to be a wife, that’s why dads are the ones walking down the isle with their daughter
@@whatever7588
Dowry is paid by the bride's family not the groom's side.
In short groom gets both money and unpaid slave.
Exactly my thoughts
Antonio looked so scared when the reporter asked him " what would happen to you if you didn't want to get married the person your family picked for you". You knows his family would either kill him or put Voodoo on him.
That’s probably true but they would actually hex him being that voodoo is a closed practice
Oh wait Mihala the worlds “most powerful witch” is most likely a fake who doesn’t care about that shit
It’s crazy how they spent the *entire* day lavishly celebrating a love that never existed.
Very accurate
Your comment is gold. The irony. I understand that marriage in some cultures like my asian culture, is one between the family too but its sad that she and the groom had no free will.
it will develope and grow. its a big step from bieng single to grown u and in raltionship. the family will support
😂😂😂😂
For them it's all about bragging. They only want to show off their riches. It's in their blood.
Beatrice definitely didn’t want to get married
they used and abused her....poor girl
I mean, it’s her cousin
it's all in her face
Lovable light you know in parts of the world it is okay for cousins to marry.
Reminds me of that scene in Bend it like Beckham when Jasmindas sis is getting married but she’s happy and her aunts says “you’re not supposed to be smiling you’re an Indian bride” lol Beatrice was not happy..
This is why girls need to continue their education (at least through high school) and spend time away from their parents to discover who they really are and what they want from life.
true shit
My dad sent me to a boarding high school far from home so I would only return during long holidays. For the first year I was sad and I thought they had abandoned me but after a while I understood that he wanted me to discover who I was without their influence. Now when I look back I'm so grateful
you said girls but you mean young adults
As a arab 21 girl my parents would never let me live alone they think im still 12 and i can't be independent
@@Hiba_gift as an arab girl here too, we still have the choice though, depends on your country and your parent mindset. My dad would pay for us even if we choose to stay at home, actually, I am 23 and still get pocket money from him until I graduate University and become independent financially. Of course they get really worried but I am sure asian parents in general are just very protective of their families. It's the normal family structure here, you only move out when you marry the fact you want to move out is a westren concept, we are traditionally very tight knit and respect family structure even when we don't really like it so much lol.
Poor Beatrice 😩 The look of disgust on her face is so relatable!!
So, the mother-in-law peeped that Beatrice wasn't into her son, and to save him the humiliation of rejection she created one last test lol
totally! It is the same when the reported asked her "so what happens if the marriage fails" and the bossy mom said "I am not thinking about it, the gods told me she is the one". Well, a way to save him from this humiliation is saying "the gods told me she is not the one" . Personally, I wish he were honest and said " I want to chose my own man or woman", but he is a pleaser
The son has more chemistry with the reporter than his own bride😂
Fffaaacccttss
Yup, exactly what I was thinking
Poor bride she could choose a better life and see the world
The son low key liked the reporter.
Well he is marrying his cousin so........
"With a young virgin witch-"
Awe, that's so sweet.
"Who's also his cousi-"
*gone*
😂😂😂 my same thoughts
You dipped
cousin marriages are really common in some places and are considered normal. like atleast 5 (or more idk) of my relatives are cousins who got married at a young age. lol.
Just Someone alabama says hi
I'm from Alabama ☹️☹️🙄🙄
I literally felt for the bride. Like her whole world is planned for her. What she says, what she wears, who she marries, when she quits school. It was so heartbreaking to see.
How are you
The same for the son. His mother has complete witch control over him.
I speak Spanish and it is so interesting to hear so many common root words because they are part of the latin language family. In addition the mother, Mihaela, speaks so slowly and clearly. Who knows, maybe someday I will try learning Romanian, it seems like a fascinating culture. I thoroughly enjoyed this video and the previous one, so interesting! Thanks VICE/Broadly and to the family for allowing a camera crew to look in on their inner world.
Those are gipsys not romanians
@@Satibelle .... aren't they speaking Romanian?
They are speaking romanian,because they're gypsies who live in Romania, culture is different though.
did i really just watch this 30min video to find out they got divorced two months later, i’m wheezing 💀
hussein 🙄
The look at 26:16 when the mom kissed her son after the marriage says it all chilleeee! 👀🙈 I would of shit my pants if I was the bride lol
Dead!
Bruu I'm a still watch.
at least she got her money back
“He’s only 17, marrying the young virgin witch, who’s also his cousin” IM DONE, NOT WATCHING IT
Gypsy
Is gypsy culture
Good for you...Ițm romanian and I find this repulsive...not to mention that she uses God s name in her spells which is outrages...she is a fake and this reporter is talking with them like they do something great....WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
They got divorced in the end . watched the full video.
Ace Bales marrying within the extended family also happens in the muslim culture. A huge population is muslim, so I am not shocked by this either.
I realized this lady was a different level when she brought up how priest kill Jesus therefore who cared if the priest approves of her witchcraft 😭
Not to be superficial but they are both gorgeous. They have flawless skin and hair! I hope the makeup artist that did all of the bridal party got a huge tip because they were all BEAT for the gods omg.
The groom looked like a nice guy, the mom was the crazy one
Karen Trujillo right? I feel sorry for the bride because she was forced into the marriage but I feel sorry for the groom too, he seemed like a genuinely nice guy who wanted to try and make his awkward cousin marriage work because his mom told him to.
You don’t quite understand how strong and compelling their traditions are. You don’t say no to your parents and your community or you get shunned, or worse
He looked nice but he was ignorant of the girls true feelings. And you have to be really really oblivious to not see that the girls words didn’t match her feelings. And he went on with it in his internal world and feelings about the situation. Of course it may not be the worst thing, but it really does suck
Auriel 318 I know lots of guys that are that slow. Lol
Common theme worldwide
She looked as she was about to cry in the nail salon ,poor girl
They're just feeding her the answers that they think she should say. She doesn't believe it. She doesn't believe a word she's saying. You can hear that she WANTS a life, she WANTS to do more than just be a glorified incubator, dishwasher, and cook for her husband. It's a familial contract that states she's *property* and doesn't get the privilege of having an actual life because she's female.
That part just broke my heart. I can't imagine having all of that pressure on me at such a young age.
Natasha Romanova That’s just traditions in some parts of the world. Obviously not saying it’s good. It’s a pretty stupid thing to do. People should choose who they want to get married to.
Seriously. When the guy said the small spark will grow into something huge and she said she agreed I thought wow......and when she was repeating word for word what the women in the nail salon I thought woooowwww.......pobrecita
And when they gave her parents the money and said let’s pay for the daughter in law according to their agreement...and the guy grabbed it all smug...maybe that’s just me but😭🤮 the money probably wouldn’t even go back to the daughter. Smh
My husband is from Iraq and our traditional wedding was so similar (without the witch element), it is so full on and half the city is invited that I didn’t even see him until the end…hectic but I have so many vivid memories of how much fun it was…the most hectic party you’ll ever attend
in this evil world i couldnt imagine inviting strangers to my marriage
So lucky madam🎉🎉🎉🎉
1) For a witch almighty, the fact that she couldn't tell from the beginning that her niece is a Muggle and her son is "Flamboyant" is kinda questioning her skills...
2) Beatrice's whole body language was screaming "Get me out of here!!!" She just wanted to spread her wings long before settling down. Whether she is a witch or not, I wish her all the best.
3) Antonio isn't a bad guy so I wish he finds his happiness too, whatever gender that might be ;)
And 4) Mihaela, your double standards about education is hypocritical at best.
Flamboyant is the best was to explain it, I said he likes men 😂
Anyone else getting the vibe that she definitely didn’t want to marry him... please tell me I’m not the only one who could really tell 😂
Her face said it all. I don't think he wanted to be married either, but at least enjoyed the attention and getting to dress up in his virgin silk tie.
her face shows that she doesn't like the man
When he tried kissing her cheek she pushed him away
Well they are cousins
true
You can see her trying to push him away when he wanted to kiss her
@Palestinian Rambo wowww really
Where
Forcing marriage on a 17 year old girl and an 18 year old boy who are cousins... but she wasn't even a virgin so who even cares. Am I right? Yikes.
I mean....he is her cousin
Palestinian Rambo just because it’s a part of a tradition or culture doesn’t mean it’s a good thing. I would never want anybody to set me up with someone who I don’t love.
This was so interesting!!! The reporter brought up such pivotal points. Usually witches represent independence, especially from men and the patriarchy, yet here they were at the wedding conforming to such patriarchal standards and traditions. Also the reporter brought up a good point on how the mother in law didn’t like Beatriz and that’s why she’s going to find another girl for her son. It was for the best since it didn’t seem like her son Antonio and the witch Beatriz had a strong connection. Antonio seemed more at ease with the reporter and showed more enthusiasm/interest in her.
“Couldn’t you have seen this in your crystal ball?” I lost it when the presenter started laughing 😂🤣
okay as a Romanian... I would just like to say something. THIS IS NOT ROMANIAN CULTURE THIS IS GYPSY DAMMIT
Those are fake witches ?
@@akineiar2301 not sure, but I think so. They were on the Romanian news and come from a rich family I think. I am not sure because I am not Romanian myself.
I don't even think those are rituals..
We have Roma in the United States . Trust me, we know the difference.
We knoooow! Greetings from Serbia!
THANK U ! THATS WHAT I WAS ABOUT TO SAY !
You can’t lie though, her wedding dress is gorgeous
Edit: why are y’all so pressed for? My opinion is i think the dress looks amazing. I understand y’all have opinions but telling me that my opinion is wrong and yours isn’t is annoying like let me like what i like.
That's for sure
In your opinion..
taste doesn't come with money and money does not bring taste
Quando si è poveri dentro il meglio è apparire
More like obnoxious
Whew when she asked “do you think you’ll grow to love eachother eventually” and her expressions as he is as answering and how they both looked at the camera…
I can just see and feel the pain when she was answering those questions at the nail salon 😔 Also why does Beatrice look more like Antonio’s mom than Antonio himself lmao
Well, apparently it is common for your child to gain traits from your sibling instead of yourself.
@@Alykia How are you
My nephew looks sooo much like me its weird haha, genetics are interesting.
“We paid for Beatrice. We acquired her.”
There is no power in that statement for any woman, witch or otherwise. Shameful.
It’s culture and what we’ve been doing for centuries unfortunately it seems that will never change all around the Roma community
namastenurse it’s culture same for us it’s not buying a human it’s more like we’re paying for your daughter for raising her to be a beautiful young lady
It's for the best.
namastenurse I know it’s very sad that it goed this way. My family roots also came from romas and we actually have the same “rules”. If someone pays for the bride, then she “belongs” to that family. But if the marriage doesn’t work out the mother of the man wants all her money back or they will get black magic done .. scary shit right
that is gypsy tradition at its finest. They live in the dark ages.
The son had better chemistry with his tailor
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 why did you have to go there
accuracy😂😂😂😂
yepp
I mean....it was my first thought. His mannerisms 👀
They couldn’t even look at each other and Beatrice looks like she was gonna cry the whole time too :|
Here she was saying Romania was about to have terrible things happen and then-
COVID-19.
So interesting, thanks Vice, so much material here for further journalism.
the cameraman literally told the nail tech to shut up😂
I was glad that he spoke up ... No one else had the guts to say it
What’s time did that happen ?
At 09:41
At 09:41
He's smart 😂😂
The witch mother says they must be divorced because Beatrice cant be a part of the family but they're cousins so isnt she already technically a part of the family?😂😂
😑 shes a fuckn wack job !
Actually she run away from home ,so it true they are cousin
Emily Foley 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@alinaabrocc9275 wait what

“Could you not have seen this in your crystal ball?” 🤣🤣🤣🤣👏👏👏That’s the best question 🙋♂️
crazy how this girl is the same age as me and shes getting married while im lying in bed eating goldfish
Lu L lmfao
share
Keep eating those goldfish Bay because that is exactly where an 18 year old should be! LOL trust me there is plenty of time for you to get married, I'm 38 and I've already done it twice! LOL
Lu L I’m 23 & I’m doing the same
Dude same
"I don't have anything in particular to look forward to."
That's a good sign that SHE SHOULDN'T BE GETTING MARRIED.
yeah, i do agree girls shouldn't get married so young, but i am from romania, and i have a lot of gypsy friends that will get married this year and the next one (they're all about 13/14/15). some of them confessed me that they didn't want to get married, but most of those families grew up in a uneducated environment, because they still vividly believe in their traditions. is it sad? it hella is, but that's the world those girls live in
Its all theyll allow her to do
@@mlc5158 That's sad and interesting. Do their parents practice real magic or is it a scam like so many people say? :/ Personally I used to see a Romania spiritualist and I believed her, she just became too expensive
i know some women that know how to practice divination (some of my pregnant neighbors would go to them and ask if it's a boy or a girl before they could medically determine) but most of the famous ones that appear on these documentaries or on the tv are greedy scams. it's sad to see gypsy lore and traditions so badly represented :/
and btw not all gypsies/romanian believe/practice these things.
romania is a very religious country so these women would often get shamed
marriage is a big step n big unkown, so its not exprenced yet and u cannot knwo what to expect or look forward to? she is right.
There is just something about this video that makes me keep watching it over and over again
It was obviously Beatrice divorce him, hence why it was judged that the money will be returned to the groom's family so he can find another wife
the scene in the nail salon put a bad taste in my mouth. i feel so bad for this poor girl
Lisa Rodjer same :/
Lisa Rodjer same here. So disturbing
Pretty disturbing. Antonio may be a great guy, in fact, there is no reason to think he isn't, but the whole situation is
distressing.
I am disturbed that the groom knows so little about her that he doesn't even know that she did not go to high school, and the bride likely knows as little about him as he knows of her.
Indian acquaintances of mine who have had their marriages arranged seemed as if they had a lot more input into the decision, and all of them had graduated from high school (and most from college) before they wed.
@@Tina06019 Definitely! My old boss (a veterinarian) had an arranged marriage and she was very open about it. They both seem very happy and it's funny how opposite their personalities are... lol. The husband was our manager/supervisor and he was funny, loud, and easy to get along with while our boss was more stern, work focused, and motherly x)
Our boss told us that their families knew each other for a long time and they had many encounters with one another. He was always sitting next to her when he could or making sure she was eating well, etc, while working.
I feel sorry for both of them. They were both forced into this marriage.
How can she not be right for the family when she is family....
Shh_stone Shh yea ppl who marry blood usually have baby’s who are born w deformities it’s real look it up
Shh_stone Shh. Be quiet your gonna get us all cursed!
WTF
Touché
Mindblowin
I hope Beatrice and the groom find happiness. She seems apprehensive. When the groom said there is def a spark , she looks around and blinked fast and looked at the camera. You could tell she wasn’t feeling the same.
The dress was absolutely stunning! Dressmaker is wonderful!
"I don't have anything to look foward to" is a phrase that made me tear up.
@Thea-Maria Simion-Popescu that's really interesting, actually
Thea-Maria Simion-Popescu Thank you for sharing!
Yes, it's so sad, It's really sad.
Thea-Maria Simion-Popescu thank you i was gonna say it. The translation is badly made I think they make everything they say sound extreme
Juliana Azevedo same
as a gay man, I'm getting some vibes from Antonio, I don't think he is 100% gay but that man isn't 100% straight either
Leif I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE PICKING UP THOSE VIBES!!!😂😂
He is bi probably. I like him
That spirit inside you is giving those vibes
@Ceptom MUA yea I know I'm 1/8th but even then he is giving vibe
that's what i thought too lol
“I don’t have anything in particular to look forward to” and doesn’t that just sum up the whole child/gypsy marriage experience? The most exciting things to look forward to in their lives are the wedding day (which will actually be exhausting & painful lugging around that enormous heavy dress, then the wedding night... 😳) and having children. That’s it. At least I guess she’s a witch, so that does give her an outside focus to concentrate on 🤷♀️ Not even properly educated, so does she get to read books? Do art? Have hobbies she can enjoy? My heart breaks for these girls
i believe arranged marriages can be successful too if both people are happy, but you can tell antonio looked lost and beatrice - disgusted. i rly hope they were able to move on with their lives and be happy
Me: trying to sleep at 3am
RUclips: "An arranged marriage ceremony with Romanians teen witches "
Me rn lol
Literally me
hahahahaha
me too at 3am omg
Lol me right now
The way she pushed him away when he attempted to kiss her.. that was so awkward.
Doesn’t Matter she has to act shy... otherwise she is not worth
it’s basically bashfulness, respect in their culture but in christianity’s culture it’s customary to kiss the bride so he tried to incorporate that with modesty for a kiss on the cheek but even that wasn’t respectful in a Romanian witch family
Yes it's her cousin. I'd escape if anyone tried to push that nastyness on me.
cecedoll88 In Japan having relationship with your cousins is absolutely normal
@@myonlylove0f3 wait what?
Awe the poor couple, both the bride and groom aren't happy with this situation. It's sad they're giving up their happiness and dreams due to succumbing to their elder's tradition and obedience to their family tradition. I can only imagine how awkward their wedding night was. Her dress, make up and dress is amazingly stunning! It was a beautiful ceremony. I hope both will find their happiness. ❤️
The grooms absolutely fabulous mother looks like the Italian actress, Anna Magnani, who was/still is the greatest actress of all time. I see similarities of ancient Italian culture with this family.
She doesn’t really like him, and he’s scared af.
Thank you for noticing him. He's just a pawn in this situation, valuable only for his genes.

It was clear in the nail salon that she was being forced, I felt so worried for her
Me 2
same feel bad for both of them being forced
Got to be a lot of family pressure. Looking at it from her side - she is young, never dated, and is being told who/when to marry. It must be pretty daunting.
Come on the guy is young nice, god knows what happened there
I think if she had said she didn’t want it it would have tainted the marriage and the role the she has to play
Beatrice is soooo beautiful
Blessed Be 😘💍 Thank you!!! Dr Olomi I'm excited too!! for a great future!!! with the One I truly love and I hope he feels the same for me🐬🐬🐬 that I do
The bride is beautiful but I feel sad for her.
She didn't want to be kissed by him at their wedding day
@Fire Hippy changing dipers for the *rest of her life?* What? Are you saying they work part time at a nursery??? But I mean, if you think about it, it's clear that she is unhappy and she knows it-possibly even understands why, if only a little. There is hope that she and others could change how strictly they follow the traditions, as the mother-in-law did for her daughters. (Changing the arranged marriage age to 18 rather than 13 so they could get an education)
Fire Hippy they take care,of chickens too! :-)??????
Fire Hippy it was probably a typo! :-) meaning children?
@Dr.Science ?
I really want to know Beatrice's story and how she's doing now.
Sameee
Me tooooo!!!!
They’re not together anymore. I watched another similar documentary and it showed they’re not together anymore but that was awhile ago. I hope she followed her dreams. 💖
Me too!!!! Literally came to the comments to see an update
Something About Beauty what documentary?
"They just don't like each other; that's what happened." And that, ladies and gentlemen, is why arranged marriages should remain a thing of the past.
I love the shade the journalist was throwing at the end 😂 « you couldn’t even see it in your crystal ball? »
Lol i laughed so hard when she looked away and smiled 😂😂
Oof
she was funny as hell- lol "they just dont like eachother"
Yep yep🤣😭🤣😭💎😎
Blessing 😂
Everyone is talking about her maybe not being a virgin, but what about him? Exactly. Mind your own business.
In that culture it is ok for the male not to be a virgin. Once a female loses her’s, she is considered tainted.
Jackie oh shit, that’s messed up
@@jax422 that's not right. The concept of virginity isn't real. In the end it's just for man's unrealistic desires
@Gxlsun I have no control over other cultures’ beliefs, especially those of which I’m not a part of.
Indeed. In the Romany culture young women aren’t even allowed to see a boy without a chaperone. Young men can pretty much do what they want, but seeing young women outside their culture openly is still frowned upon.
I grew up in a similar society (Thankfully, my parents are progressive teachers and don’t give a crap about tradition).
I feel for Beatrice, and hope she is doing so much better. But I want you to think about this. In a society where a girl can’t have a boyfriend, virginity is so important and double standards are all over the place, how would you think they treat to a divorced woman. Beatrice is uneducated, her family doesn’t think much when they sell her to their relatives. I’d be surprised if she caught a break.
The ending was classic “they just didn’t like each other” 😂😂
The bride is so soft spoken and you can tell she wants to tell how she really feels about this🥺
No, they are soft spoken because they are expected to be like this before they’re married. I expect she’s different in private anyway.
well yeah she doesnt wanna marry and have sex with her cousin lol
I mean im not sure how close they are 1st or 2nd cousins but thats gross
The boy doesn't seem real happy to be forced to marry his cousin either.
Maybe he would like to swim OUTSIDE of their Gene Pool?
Unfortunately she is dead
yess, i mean she probably has her own dreams and stuff. but when they showed them in the nail salon and the editing crew still showed the parts with someone telling her what to say. maybe she was trying to think of other supportive words to say(?) but not sure if it seems like something she really wants. and when she was like "i don't really remember any memories of him" i was like yikesss
I think Beatrice did witch craft to get out of it that’s why she smiled at the end of her last interview
Good for her! it worked lol.
I'd rather be neck deep in debt than married to that woman. Because you know this whole entire thing was for her, not them.
Ashley R if she could do witchcraft she would blind him not realised she wasn’t a virgin ,that’s way they let her go !
You're right, she did say I feel stronger now with a smile
Dani what do you mean it was all for her? Do you think she wanted to be married to her cousin? She couldn’t even talk for herself...
Is there any other video about her marriage?
So interesting to learn about others across the globe.
I love the interviewer “they just don’t like each other that’s what happened” 😂😂
Or she just didn’t like him. You could tell the whole time she didn’t want to marry her cousin and the look in her mamas face said it too. Crazy how much one can tell just from body language and facial expressions. Language barrier didn’t matter one bit because we could all understand
@@lynzyrisingsun I could tell early that she didn't like him because of her body language.
I love how she said “you couldn’t see this in your crystal ball” and then gave a little laugh after
She refused to make eye contact with him and kind of pulled away when he tried to show any affect to her. Sad really. He seemed like he wanted it to work. She seemed closed off from the beginning
@@jessicakraus4983 she had her own motives for going through with the ceremony.
Honestly, Beatrice is like Miss Universe material.
She's extremely beautiful. Gypsy girls are very beautiful as a whole
Take of the makeup then
Wtf? She looks like a man
@@coybi are you blind?
Shes so gorgeous
anyone else noticed how she walked backwards on the bridge and it seems like she intended to reverse the spell like she knew what she was doing
Beautiful celebration! It’s like a celebrity wedding
Crazy how I felt that the interviewer and Antonio had more of a connection than the Antonio and Beatrice
Right that was a strange thing to see them have Chemistry.
I felt that too
it's sometimes part of journalism to seek that chemistry, it allows the interviewed to feel more comfortable
How can you tell behind the screen? You don't even know him, and meet him as a person.
@@boleyn8463 well, it was just my opinion after all, and that's what I had seen. Not like they could have married each other right there or anything, but I also said that to emphasize the reality of arranged marriages. There is often never love or happiness. It's all under the guise of culture, which then ends in sad marriages, and shouldn't exist anymore.
I’m so glad they left that nail salon part in... so important!
Sofia Monteiro what time is that at
0:31 "who is also his cous-"
I have no words
A video about Romania opens with a Hungarian Dance. Nice one Vice.
I see it in her eyes, she wanted to continue schooling
Edit: I check after a year omg 10k likes 😍 thank you didn't think it was possible
Ikr
its sad
and do what. work 16 hrs a day. women pretend that they are happy working. The truth is we men are not even happy working.
@@anirbanghosh7987 Why not? That's the reason why people find their passion, to actually LOVE being at work
Anirban Ghosh honestly a lot of girls like working, especially in fields that interest them. But it’s alright for a domestic life to appeal to guys too. If you don’t like work maybe you could be a stay at home dad someday
You could tell the whole way through that Beatrice wasn’t into marrying him just from her body language and her face I felt sorry for her
I said the same thing! This girl clearly does not want to marry dude
I feel sorry for both of them not just the girl.
Shes so beautiful i wish her nothing but happiness
Yep very noticeable 💯 😬
will end up as just another divorce statistic or another unhappy woman. something both your and her cultures share. no need to act like its any different.
They are both so beautiful and attractive people. I hope they are both find happiness in their lives.
How can 'the most powerful witch in Europe' make such a costly mistake? Maybe those, who turn to her for an edvice should think about it before she 'magicaly separates' them from their money, lol.
I met a man he help me to bring back my soulmate back to me so quickly. He help me to solve my relationship problem
Whatsapp him
@@frankiesjusttarot9728 I was being sarcastic. I don't believe in witches, lol. They are only in fairytales...
The son seems like a well informed and educated young man conflicted with upholding his mothers traditions to appease her. This was interesting to watch. Kind of glad they got a divorce though lol, you can’t force love.
Beyond love, you can't force two incompatible people to actually spend a lifetime together. Compatibility matters more than "love" though having both is ideal. Here, they had neither.
This proofs that no powerful witch/sourcery can make a love potion. It also shows that being pretty does not guarantee love. Pitty that culture tries to control the young minds not yet strong enough to deside for themeselves.
@@p.r.9982 true. My mom and dad going through a lot and still together now because they have something more than just "fire" for each other. Or else their marriage would already crushed since years ago. Just coz u know. Nobody's perfect.
@@sonjah9520 i couldn't agree more.
Except she had to sleep with him and then walk through a circle of fire before she could get away from them and even then she has to PAY for her suffering....
Why does it look like everyone is enjoying the weeding except Beatrice- it’s like she’s at a party where she doesn’t know anyone and just vibes in a corner-
That exactly 💯
Me at a family gathering

The dress is really beautiful, looks like angel wings! 😍

±2349046285008⏯⏯❣❣
I love the sweater ur wearing 💜
Poor Beatrice looked so unhappy the whole time, except maybe in the car ride. Kinda glad they divorced. He seemed nice though. Hope they both find love... But fck imagine spending €700K for nothing. Crazy
Karen Mendoza wait they divorced??
@@rociomj8874 They did, the mother says it at the end (in a phone call a couple months later) that they did one last ritual before they were to consummate the marriage. In the ritual it was found that she wasn't the right girl for him and the girl's parents basically had to reimburse her for everything.
Beatrice and her whole family was unhappy.
So why in the world did they do it?!
Love isn't an option for them, unfortunately. They will have to learn to love whomever they are forced to marry......
"you couldn't have seen this In your crystal ball?" lmao 😂
The shade of it all 😂😂😂😂
I APPROVE OF THE SHADE HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Hahahahahahahah
EXACTLY! FACTS! I AGREE! THAT'S RIGHT LOL!
I laughed so hard when she said that. Also, when she said "they just didn't like each other that's what happened" 😂
I don’t like how the reporter/interviewer’s laughter and questions felt disrespectful at times. I don’t understand their culture or beliefs either but I respect it-especially when their inviting you into their lives. She just didn’t come off well to me.
You had me at witches👍🧙♀️
She didn't like him at all!! She recoiled for a kiss on the cheek....
Nicole Juarbe more like she knew she will be sent back after the wedding ,she knew she wasn’t a virgin !
@@bellacottobella8284 that's not the case, she was a virgin
delia a I was born in România and I know their custom ,when she said that ,they went to the Gypsy own court with the eldest Gypsy’s and she was returned all the expenses from the wedding ,that mean ,it’s only one reason That she get her money back ,it only happens when the bride it’s not virgin ,she was promised since she was 7 years old and based on trust that she will be a virgin they spent all that money on the wedding !
Guys it’s not possible to “check” weather a woman is a virgin or not. That is a myth.
@@natalyaporter5730 what obgyn do you go to???? You can detect an intact Himen....
bro while she was getting her nails done this lady at the back was telling her what to say, wtf
She's almost crying..
Cus they're all nosey and controlling it'a honestly sickening, she isn't allowed to say what she truly thinks or wants. They're just primitives and illiterate, I feel sorry for that kid
I peeped five minutes into the video that this shit was arranged arranged. She asked him what was his first memory and her fist clenched for half a second. i think shes asking for help, but its her culture and spirituality at the end of the day. May she be liberated in the Truest sense.
Because she sensed how dumb the girl was and felt embarrassed for her (I'm Romanian so I know).
Poor her
I love how they included the reporter like she was one of them.
All the dresses are so beautiful
Beatrice: walks backwards from the alter to undo the mothers' spells.
oh shit thats interesting
Oh that makes sense
🤣🤣...so true !
So that's why the marriage didn't work! 🤣 Some part of me believes it though, haha!
But mostly I tend to believe the grooms parents realized they were broke after paying all that for the bride and wedding so the Mom decided that the wife wouldn't pass the final test so they could make the bride's family pay them back 😂
Yea they deff gonna have complications... they are cousins that no nothing of eachother based on spells nd riches...
Interesting language. Sounds like a cross between Italian and Russian.
Right I thought I was crazy
JoStylin Well it’s a Romance language (originating in Latin) surrounded and influenced by slavic ones..so, yeah, pretty much :)
Yup
It basically had influence of both languages
And the music has a little bit of Arabic/Turkish influence.
I think Antonio is in love now with the interviewer. They have got chemistry and some biology to come soon!
Vice, we need an update!!!!
I like to think that Beatrice, after having bestowed with the power of Miheala's clan, cast a spell to release herself. At that point, she has become even more powerful than her reluctant mother-in-law.
Someone else posted in the comments that they got a divorced and she’s remarried a non-relative and now has a son. I hope that’s true, she seemed to have the life sucked out of her.
make that a movie haha
well played, sis XD XD
@@sonyasunnymartinez6328 dude i was so sad for her like imagine how bad she cloud felt after the big wedding and stuff then being told shes shit
love it doesnt work like that real life isnt a disney movie
I hope Beatrice is somewhere living her best life happy, and feeling real sparks.
Hi I'm from Algeria
28:08 When you spend 600,000 Euro on wedding that means you're living your best life.

@@mogleesh-22 money doesn’t mean you’re living your best life. She looked lonely and unhappy. 😢
