Faustina, a Ghanaian woman based in Germany has shared her unconventional love story and the circumstances surrounding her marriage to her German husband disclosed by her, although her parents did not support the marriage, she knew what she wanted and decided to pursue it.
In an interview with DJ Nyaami on SVTV Africa, Faustina revealed that she paid for their wedding only one month after meeting her husband in Accra.
She added that her husband was honest about his financial situation, clarifying that, contrary to common belief, not all white people are wealthy. Faustina appreciated his honesty and saw something special in him, leading her to propose marriage.
“I met him in Accra when he was looking for an affordable hotel. We exchanged numbers, and he called in the next three days.

One thing led to the other, and we agreed to marry. He did not have the money for the ceremony, so I gave him some.”
Faustina said her husband later refunded the money when he returned to Germany. She stayed back in Ghana to learn the German language and get the needed travel documentation to join him.
She added that initially, her parents were not in support of the marriage because of the age gap, the rapid progression of their relationship, and financial concerns.
However, over time, her family accepted and supported their marriage.
