A husband in Egypt divorced his new bride for an absurd reason.

During a hearing at the family court of Cairo, the lawyer of the woman revealed that the morning after the wedding, the woman’s husband started quarrelling with her because of the colour of her eyes after she took off her contact lenses post- event.

The real colour of his wife’s eyes is green which the husband did not know about.

To end the quarrel, the wife tried to tell her husband that poor eyesight compelled her to always wears contact lenses and take them off only when she sleeps, but all was in vain.

On the other hand, the ex-husband of the woman said that since the wife’s eyes are green, their children could also have green eyes — citing that as the reason for asking for a divorce.

According to Al Arabiya News, the woman belongs to Cairo, the capital of Egypt, and is a law student.
