It's hardly three months since 33-year-old Chris Galera made headlines after holding a wedding to get married to herself, and now she is about to divorce herself.
Her wedding was held in September this year as she sought to formalise the union between her and herself. Daily Star reports that the Instagram model has now asked for a divorce from herself as she met someone else whom she hopes to get married to.
Tired of disappointments by men
At the time of her wedding, Galera said that she had made the uncommon decision because she was tired of being disappointed by men. She added that she'd come to embrace the feeling of being alone and did not see anything wrong in not having a groom beside her on the wedding day.

After exchanging vows, Galera excitedly posed for pictures outside a Catholic church in Sao Paulo, Brazil clutching a bouquet of flowers. She donned a long flowing white dress, beaded necklace and conspicuous makeup accentuated by a chic half-up hairstyle and tattoos.
Wants to divorce herself
About 90 days later, it appears that Galera has had enough and can no longer stay in the marriage with herself. The divorce has been informed by the fact that she recently met and is starting to fall in love with someone special.
"I started to believe in love the moment I met someone else special," she said, adding that she was happy while her "marriage" lasted.
When she was asked about her decision to wed herself in September, Galera explained that she reached a point in life where she matured and realised that she was a strong and determined woman. She further added that, for a long time, she was always afraid of being alone but soon realised that she needed to learn to feel good about herself.
Story went viral
Galera disclosed that, as much as she enjoyed the wedding day and her story went viral, it came with unfriendly comments from members of the public who faulted her decision. She, however, managed to hold her head up high by ignoring them and focusing on her life.
"I decided that I would no longer read the hate comments. People's opinion will not change what I think or add anything to it," she said.
