A British bride has postponed her wedding for 18 years because of the extra weight she suffered.
Charmaine Brooks met her husband Darren Squires in 2001, when she was 17.
A year later, Brooks gave birth to her first child, and since then her weight began to increase rapidly, leading to her 18-year marriage.
Now weighing 114 kg, Charmaine Brooks, 36, was able to wear her wedding dress by cutting her weight in half.
Khatib al-Arous, 44, explained that Charmaine now looks as beautiful as the day he met her in 2001.
