I Paid an Actor to Be My ‘Groom’ at a Fake Wedding to Get Revenge on My Ex, but Then We Had a Dramatic Plot Twist

I hired an actor to be my “groom” at a fake wedding, all to get revenge on my cheating ex. But as we stood at the altar, exchanging fake vows and a not-so-fake kiss, I never could have predicted how this elaborate charade would completely upend my life.

I never thought I’d be the kind of person to stage a fake wedding for revenge. But there I was, staring at my phone, scrolling through photos of Charlie and Samantha’s latest date night. My stomach churned.

“Screw this,” I muttered, tossing my phone aside. That’s when the idea hit me. If Charlie wanted to flaunt his new relationship, I’d show him I could do one better.

I called my cousin Tess. “Hey, you still friends with that actor guy?”

“Ryan? Yeah, why?”

“I need a favor. A big one.”

Two days later, I was sitting across from Ryan in a coffee shop, outlining my ridiculous plan.

“So let me get this straight,” he said, leaning back in his chair. “You want me to pretend to be your fiancé at a fake wedding?”

I nodded, feeling a bit ridiculous. “I know it sounds crazy, but —”

“I’m in,” Ryan interrupted, a mischievous glint in his eye. “Sounds like fun.”

Over the next few weeks, I threw myself into wedding planning. Dress shopping, venue booking, inviting friends who were in on the plan — it was exhausting but exhilarating.

“You sure about this, Nat?” my friend Kira asked as we picked out flowers.

“Absolutely,” I lied, trying to ignore the knot in my stomach.

I nodded, and our lips met. It was just acting, I told myself, ignoring the unexpected flutter in my chest.

After the ceremony, we posed for countless photos. Ryan’s arm around my waist felt oddly comforting.

“You’re a natural,” I murmured as we smiled for another shot.

“What can I say? I’m a method actor,” he winked.

That night, I posted a flurry of wedding photos on social media. “Found my true love,” I captioned one. “New beginnings,” on another.

“Are you sure about this?” Kira asked when I told her. “It’s not just part of the act?”

“It’s real,” I assured her. “Unexpected, but real.”

Things were going great until Charlie found out. He started spreading rumors that our relationship was a sham, that I was paying Ryan to be with me.

When Ryan heard, he was upset. “I thought we were past all this,” he said, his voice tight.

“We are!” I insisted. “Charlie’s just being a jerk.”

I smiled, watching Ryan chat animatedly with the photographer. “Sometimes the craziest plans lead to the best outcomes,” I mused.

As I reflect on everything that’s happened, I can’t help but marvel at the journey. What started as a misguided attempt at revenge led me to true love and personal growth I never expected.

Life has a funny way of working out sometimes. And while I wouldn’t recommend staging a fake wedding as a path to happiness, I can’t regret the choices that led me here — to Ryan, to love, and to a future brighter than I ever imagined.

JD Vance is under fire as a ‘hypocrite’ after drag photos from his college days come to light

While Ohio Senator JD Vance (R) remains silent on the newly emerged drag photos, former Rep. George Santos has been vocal on the matter.

On Sunday, a photo of the Republican vice presidential nominee in a blonde wig and a long dress went viral, drawing attention due to its clash with the GOP’s frequent stance against drag and LGBTQ+ rights.

The photos that caused a stir on the social media were posted on by Matt Bernstein with the caption, “new: i have obtained a photo of jd vance in drag while at yale law school.” 

The authenticity of the photos was confirmed by Travis Whitfill, who provided them, stating, “This was taken in 2012… Photo was taken by a classmate and sent to me.”

As expected, people reacted to the photo, with one person writing, “Ladies and gentleman, a picture of JD Vance in drag while attending Yale Law School. I don’t share this to shame those who do drag, but rather to shame those who attack drag while having a history of enjoying the art form themselves.” Someone else commented: “Feelin’ cute. Might run for Vice President later.” A third added: “Don’t call JD Vance weird because he wore drag. Call him a hypocrite and a bigot for demonizing others who wear drag.”

There were also those who stood for Vance, including Republican U.S. representative from New York George Santos who said Vance’s photos were more of a goofy costume from a college house party than drag, as reported by TMZ.

“To call that drag is disingenuous and I think most dudes at some point in their lives have played around with costumes that are gender bender. Couples do that all the time. The wife will dress up as a guy, the husband will dress up as a woman. It’s definitely not drag,” Santos said.
