- What does it mean to become a gypsy wife?
Violet Ann has been employed for 5 years and lived an independent life until now. She is due to marry a gypsy traveller and will need to give up her job, move out of her house and into a marital caravan and become a full time gypsy wife.
We follow Violet throughout the run up to her wedding and also see how she is adjusting to her new gypsy wife duties.

I had to breakup with my fiance because he said "I am too ambitious for a woman" and asked me to quit the job after having kids. It was going to be an arranged marriage, there were no feelings to get hurt. I don't regret it. It was liberating. I smiled for hours after breaking up like crazy girl. I am getting married to another guy next year in March. In india dumping a man right before marriage is not something society appreciate. But, it's your life. It's your responsibility to make yourself happy. No one's gonna do that for you
you did good, its your life and no one can live it for you.
I'm sure he felt liberated too. Clearly you two were looking for different things. At least you got to speak about it before the wedding.
You go girl
I'm indian and the amount of failed arranged marriages (including my own parents) ive seen but they are still trapped in that marriage is just sad. Divorce and calling off the wedding especially if it is the girl that does it is something that our culture really doesn't appreciate. And they always look down on the women especially as if they were the only cause of a failed marriage or engagement.
I agree. We must be responsible for our own happiness. Whilst our parents raise us up, they cannot control our life choices especially once we become adults. We are the only person in our lives that should have the last say. The only person that's going to be with as as long as we live is ourselves. So we should so everything to make ourselves happy.
Thankfully, my sister got married to the love of her life and I hope I will find someone I love enough and someone who loves me and won't restrict me from being myself to marry in the future. If not, I will stay single forever lol.
I’m curious, why’d you wait till “right before the marriage” to act on this disagreement about you working? Knowing that is socially frowned on, as you said?
I CANNOT fathom my mom’s advice being, “Try to keep your mouth shut.” 😳 That just caught me off guard! WoW!! I am SO glad I live where I live, in the family I grew up in!
It seemed like a joke. I could imagine by dad telling me that on my wedding day as a joke because I talk a lot and he would say I would scare of my groom lol.
Right or saying she will MAKE her have a go at it" with the relationship if she ever tried to come back home she'd kick her back to him lol so supportive.. not
@@ganjahfairy1557 it's obvious u don't know our ways cos no parents wud ever turn there daughter away if she wasn't happy , I can tell you alot there was said in jest.
Hey she should be glad she has parents and all you made these comments...
I agree that her mother's remarks may have been made in jest but you should, "always listen to the jest". It is their right to have their traditions. One hundred years ago, all women were subject to the same. Be thankful, we need all kinds to make the world run.
I would love a show about gypsy brides that got divorced and how it changed their life and outlook on the gypsy lifestyle. What I’ve read in comments is that the lady in the video got divorced and threw a gypsy divorce party.
It wasn't violet Anne. Joan Elizabeth Furey and two other irish traveller girls from the show were divorced.
@Oskar winters OK... No worries... The other one from the show that got a divorce was Josie Mcfayden.
Oh that makes me happy.
I don’t think there’s enough entertaining content for a show but maybe a documentary.
The show used to be on television. It was a weekly show if I remember correctly. I actually liked the show. Is it still on? I don’t like any of these communities where people stay with their own kind. It’s always the women who are oppressed in these relationships as if all they are good for is being baby making machines. Makes me want to vomit.
Out of ALLL the gypsy weddings I've ever seen, this one has to have been the best one yet. Classy, no fighting, no cussing, nothing.
I think so too👍🏻
I was thinking the same
And the dress is really pretty too !
If I saw the wedding without knowing it was a gypsy wedding I would just assume it was a normal wedding, very different to other gypsy weddings on this show.
The venue apparently complained that the guests were a nightmare but I don't see any issues personally in this video.
Her dress is pretty. It sounds like she regrets her decision to marry at the end. Once you get a taste of freedom it's hard to go back to just staying in the house cooking and cleaning all day. That's why Gypsy girls are forced to marry young, you can't miss the freedom/independence you never had.
Good point. You can't miss what you never had.
But, they might still wonder…some people are very curious.
🤔 I think people can long for freedom even if they have never experienced it. But the younger they are when they marry and taken out of formal schooling, the less likely they will have the resources and confidence to pursue a different way of life. What is sad is this way of life strips them of options. I haven’t finished this video, but she looks sad to me throughout. Perhaps she is just reserved. The mother seems a bit too pleased with herself that her daughter is succumbing to the lifestyle.
Oh wow never thought of it that way
@@tcm087 not to mention, younger girls are usually impressionable and have idealistic views of love, relationships and marriage. They know little of reality which is really sad
It's so sad that she was basically saying that marriage equals the end of having an enjoyable life. Even 22 is too young if you feel like that. She must have a lot of respect for her parents and gypsy heritage to give up so much. 😢
Wow! Never had so many likes, thanks lovely people 💜
The fact that I just turned 22 the other day. Scary
This😢 She is not living her own life and that’s sad
Lol. "Shitty caravan"
When are women not capable of having children? You can't be a child forever.
@@jballz5848 When it is your choice then there is no problem. When every decision is made by others then it's a huge problem.
Imagine giving up your independence for a man. "I have a man to look after" is he 4? "I have to clean all day" is he 4? You're married, not babysitting
In this day and age 😔 I rather be single.
Yes girl!! like my dude can take care of himself! And she should be allowed to be independent..she doesn’t have to be “under” a man she should be “beside” him:)
Even SHE admits she has “nothing to do”. What IS the point of NOT working??
@@mykijiji1958 the male is supposed to “provide” for the obviously subordinate female and “protect” her. A stupid ideology carried out in many non-western and non-eastern cultures.
Why do men hate women so much?They treat them like shit.
Violet Ann seems smart and lovely. Mother of the bride: "If she comes back, she's gonna be kicked back", "Try to keep your mouth shut", "She has to do what Larry says". Where's the love for her daughter?! Nothing against Gypsies - virtually all cultures used to be chauvinistic - but some traditions absolutely should be discontinued so people can realize their potential and be happy.
I agree with you. As a mom I would worry about abuse. If my daughter or son came home and said they needed my help or to leave a relationship I would emotionally (and somewhat financially) support them 100 percent until they could be on their feet again.
Domestic violence is huge in traveller and gypsy communities and they all know it, and know it's likely to be a driver in leaving. Her mother is smugly smiling at the thought of her coming home with bruises and telling her to go back to the man. What an awful, disgusting woman.
@@littleblackpistol straight up jealousy. her daughter did something I bet she wanted to do...have a life outside of tradition for however long. I completely agree with your assessment. I watched a lot of these episodes when they were first shown in the US and I don't remember wanting to punch a mom in the face so very much.
This is what got me the most. I've always been told by aunties uncles, my parents, grandparents ANY family if you need to come home. No judgement just come home. Not kick me back to where I came from.
The dogma of 'respect other cultures' certainly comes back to bite people in the ass sometimes 🤣
Wow I respect her because she is just trying to do how she was raised but at the same time i sense a sadness within her. Praying for her and I hope her husband does try to be open to just hear how his wife may be feeling and going through since her HUGE transition. I hope her husband understands that it doesn’t make him less than a man to hear his wife out, not to always a agree but know that you both are a team and sometime more then most her thoughts, suggestions, and concerns can be beneficial to them moving forward and making a great progress in their marriage and in life ♥️ God bless them both❤️
I watched this episode on "My Big Fat Gypsy Wedding" and if I remember correctly, she was not happy at all. She said she felt like a prisoner. Poor girl. To think they say "22" is "old to be getting married"... but, that's their culture I suppose
Wish her all the luck.. Hope he treats her right. Cause shes proven she doesnt need anyone to take care of her..
i needed this comment. how peaceful and joyful you are ❤️ i wish the same. “doesn’t make him less than a man to hear his wife out!!!” Yess!!!!!
@@kileecollins1274 ty very much❤️
@PinkBubbles ty♥️
My grandma was raised as a traveler. She didn't want that life for her daughters and grandchildren. However she does encourage me to travel throughout the US and see it's beauty.
Yes,my ma was a traveller as well.she raised us in house,s.But we never stayed anywhere LONG.......
I must say I,m proud of my gypsy (nth Irish) blood line.....
I enjoy listening to her stories. She lived around so many different kinds of people and learned from them while her dad looked for odd jobs. Her experiences made her an interesting person.
Not a traveller but I moved countries when I was a kid and it can be really hard moving around. I had kids at my schools who would move around a lot because of their parents jobs and I always felt bad for them because they wouldn’t be able to make any close friends before they were moving again. I think it’s a good idea to travel after you finish school and experience the world but it can be hard for kids.
@@bronwynredford421 I think I have Tinker blood in my Irish background.
It would be interesting to find out for sure.
Violet Ann is wise, mature, and practical....she went into marriage with no illusions and no fantasy dreams....good on her. I wish her and Larry nothing but the best.
Her parents seem like decent, fun people as well.
Let’s hope they are more modern than traditional.
I absolutely agree.
Me too
Are their marriages arranged? There's love Yes? Why can't she work? You make each other happy not just following orders doing what you're told! She left her daddy she doesn't need another one! What do the wives do all day? You can only clean so much! Can they volunteer at shelter's or hospital's? I hope there is Love instead of being a slave! That's not Love that's a form of control! So glad I and many others are not! Do you have an opinion on what happens? Anything. All I can say is be happy with life. Take care and God bless you and your family.
She was one of my favourites. Independent, wise and hard working. Deep down she didn't seem happy about being married and seemed to be doing it more to please her family rather than herself. I hope she found happiness but if it didn't work out I hope she had the courage to leave and return to her previous lifestyle
She's divorced and happy now I've read in another comment
Omg id love to see an update on her @@khuranapriyanka
I need a “where are they now?” Of all the couples from that show 😂
Me too. I want to have a follow up show.
Same
In the press, Violet Ann was really ticked off about how she and other gypsies were portrayed. She got a job temping where she and her husband are living. There's also not a clear demarcation between Irish travelers and Romany gypsies (which she is). The "grabbing" custom and drinking beer at the cemetery (in other episodes) are traveler things, not something Romany gypsies do.
@@SmidBeach how was she able to get a job when “only the men work” in their culture? I’m surprised her husband “allowed” it. 🙄
🤩 off topic, but you’re the first other Ayla I’ve seen in a long time 💀💀
my heart breaks for this young girl of only 22, she could be anything she wants at that age..........Her mom, omg..
So agree Good at her job. She loves. She could go far. Hope it works out xxx
I feel for her too
Anything she wants. Follow your heart. TRa-lalalala. We are not snow white. We have responsibilities just like men. Different, but equal. Men aren't allowed to be artists if we want to feed our children. Why should adulthood be all fun and what we want either?
22 is reasonable, but 16 too young for me
@@seanservo3105 why would you wanna stay alive if your adulthood is not fun?
So sad. She's considered a spinster at 22? She just has to cook and clean now? Keep her mouth shut? Ugh. Why are the parents forcing her into living a life that they didn't want anymore themselves?
@June Bug If she married at 35 she'd be married? But she'd probably have more of her own money and life experience.
@June Bug she would probably have a hard time finding a Gypsy husband.
@@SJ-ni6iy why?
@@Pink-dc4qi She’s going against their values and belief system.
@@SJ-ni6iy Why would anyone want a gypsy husband?
She’s a beautiful and obviously very intelligent woman, just a pity she’s forced into traditions she clearly doesn’t want
Honestly sad to see the discrimination that Romani face. Such a hardworking, admirable young woman shouldn't feel scared to tell her employer about her cultural background.
They don't look Romany,though.
They are Irish Gypsy likely
@@thesupergreenjudy no Irish accents, they are Romany. I can tell by Violet's accent, as I used to live next to Romany families in East London. The accent is distinctive.
@@biddylisduff I thought that there are plenty of British born Irish Gypsies, too - so that would explain the lack of accent. They must have been here for generations then and mixed in with Brits as they don't look very Romany
@@thesupergreenjudy you could be right, I'm no expert! As I said, I'm going by the Romany Travellers Site I lived near, some people spoke Romany, some looked very "Romany" with dark hair and complexion, others were Ginger haired with freckles! There was an Irish Travellers site about half a mile away, but the two groups didn't mix. I'll have to learn more about the history..
It would be interesting to see follow-ups to these considering this was 10 years ago.
What a lovely girl and she looked fabulous on her wedding day. I know it’s their custom to not work when married but some customs are old fashioned and made to be broken, just like some travellers live in houses nowadays. She’s a bright independent young girl whose had a taste of earning her own money etc. and this must be a very hard adjustment to make. I feel bad for her. I hope things worked out and that she’s happy these days.
I feel bad for her also.
Why feel bad? Going out to work for someone else is not a brilliant situation. My Mum and my Nana didn't work either.
@@laurastuart3814 Having your own money gives you choices
@@suedoyle4526 humans are great at making bad choices.
@@laurastuart3814 so....choices should be taken away?
Of all the brides we've seen on this channel, Violet is my favorite - hands down. However, her situation breaks my heart. She's obviously unhappy, she said so. Violet Ann has so much going for her, she deserves better. I would truly love to hear an update on Violet Ann.
Relax it's just a receptionist job at some budget motel. She can do much better
@@izabels04 She describes herself as living in a prison. Is that better?
@@izabels04 That doesn't matter. She was doing something that she was happy with and something that brought her independence. Definitely better than giving everything up and feeling like you're stuck in a prison.
Would be much better for her if she could maintain her independence and keep her job. Hate the way that the men get to dictate every aspects of the women's life. Wish her well
PROPS! for his boss to be aware he was wrong and explained why also, that always takes guts! specially being a man, we teach us to be stubborn like sticking to what you said or think then is like you are stronger, and its completely the opposite
Not sure if her boss is Punjabi, but it's ironic that Roma gypsies were originally from Punjab (Northern India) and he was discriminating against them.
He wasn't necessarily saying he was wrong but more that it changes his view that not all gypsies are not like that if their settled.
Yeah and I’m personally not convinced that he’s wrong. From what I’ve seen, gypsy events can be destructive and can really sour a persons view on the culture all together. This particular video turns my stomach because this woman is so precious and she clearly seems to be forced into some thing that she doesn’t want. I just can’t support that and I won’t. I don’t think his prejudices are misplaced.
Why have the men got their faces blurred out? Just asking
@@letscarpethisdiem1988 as someone who was a victim of a violent crime at the hands of a 'settled' traveller family, I would have to say that he's still wrong. And by that, I mean that being settled doesn't change their morals or lack thereof. Because gypsies have struggled over the centuries this has given them the attitude to do all they can for their own survival, and unfortunately, thinking this way can lead to decisions which negatively affect others.
There is a lot of crime that comes with traveller/gypsy communities and, even though Violet may be the exception to the rule, unfortunately, if you are associated with bad people you will get painted with the same brush. I daresay that this is probably why her parents no longer live on a gypsy site, but if so then why are they content for Violet to live there.
She's a beautiful, intelligent hardworking woman who could do anything with her life, why on earth would her parents be happy to force her into a life of servitude and financial dependence...
Just feels like she was trying to tell herself this is how it's supposed to be when in reality the lifestyle isn't for her just because she was born into it.
Yes exactly
Yeah, it's obvious she doesn't want this :/ Why would she say "enjoy it while you can"
I felt very sad watching this. When she said the caravan was a prison....well, she just summed up her new “life”.
I married at 28, been married 22 years. We are partners and take care of eachother and our children together. I don't think I could stand not being an equal partner.
It’s so sad that women in the traveller community have to give up everything to get married, I hope she’s happy
She isnt
Stuning bride. The first gypsy wedding dress I didn't laugh at . It is gorgeous
The outrageous completely OTT wedding dresses are usually worn by the Irish traveller brides, not the gypsy brides.
Sammy Jo's was the best from the Cutting edge episode of mbfgw. Fitted, 20 foot train, butterflies and crystals.
@@Sparrowdean Every Roma sect has garish and over the top tackiiness.
I said the same thing.
@@paigebanks7552 Irish Travellers aren't a Roma sect and what you say is untrue.
Her skin is flawless, beautiful! I've never seen someone have such an even, smooth tan on their arms and chest. I have small blemishes on my arms but she doesn't at all
Yess combination of Indian and European genes
😂😂😂😂 She looks like the typical 20 year old addicted to Percocets. Especially how she got serious wrinkles around the eyes already
@@Thesidsentinel is good yp
Looking at old pictures repeating history instead of giving this young lady a new beginning creating her own destiny. Brain washed.
It doesn't happen overnight. She is an organic, classy, smart young woman and probably waited to get the right guy. If they are still together then she did the right thing.
What's wrong with reminiscing over you history. The past creates the future for all of us.
@@lah1667 what kind of future is this? She looks absolutely miserable. Her parents told her if she comes back they’ll kick her out. She has to marry a man and be happy OR ELSE. This is really the best we can do for our young women? I’m disgusted.
@@sarahdarling6439 she should be able to keep her job if she wants toafter getting married but she seemed aware of what she was letting herself in for when she got married so that was her choice as well.
The phrase "kept woman" threw me for a loop. I've heard it before, but not since I was a child. This is the first time I've actually thought about that phrase and what it means. Got me up in my feelings thinking about the implications. I understand this is a different culture, but damn. That shit kinda touched a nerve
This breaks my heart, I hope she’s okay and her husband treats her good
He didn't, they are divorced

@@laurastuart3814 independence.
@@laurastuart3814 getting the ability to work creates freedom and stability that being a housewife doesn't have if you get divorced your on your own in economic stability at the end of the day being left to be taken care of your husband puts you at risk to just be homeless or left with nothing getting a job becoming independent help you further create space from being homeless or wasting your life away...there is more purpose to woman than just who they marry or even having kids some woman have goals and dreams of success not every woman has to marry some actually want to be the breadwinners and the people who make important decisions for themselves and for the world your limiting woman by asking them to just marry they are more than that.
I’m surprised that she gave up her independence to be sitting in a trailer on a lot overlooking a freeway. She says that she hates it, and she’s so far away from her family. It seems like marriage is only beneficial to the gypsy husband, and his wife is expected to do his bidding. I wonder what the divorce rate is among Gypsys ?
I dont know offical numbers or anything, but there is a similar episode with a divorced gypsy mother and she said she doesnt know of any other women in the same situation. Apprarently, just like all these sad videos, its once again the womans job to put up with it. Cant believe they just relinquish their lives to another, when theyre so young.
Divorce rates are very low, even if the woman is mistreated bc its expected they stay with the man NO MATTER WHAT and feed them and look after the children etc. They have no life or education to escape and live on their own sadly.
Very very low divorce rates.
@@L0zzle i really dont get why would they do that though? its not like its a religion where you're promised something in return for your suffering....
@@noura4157 because if they didn’t they would like,y be ostracised by their families. Even if it’s for the best, it can be hard to give up your family.
“Wait as long as you can.” Good advice. I love being married and I loved my single life. Both have their pros and cons. There is a book called “Last One Down the Aisle Wins”. I love that book. And I love Violet’s wedding dress😍she def made a beautiful bride! Enjoy married life!😎It’s a pleasure🥰.
This comment was somewhat comforting. Been with my fiance for 7 years since we were 15. He cheated on me recently....I immediately kicked him out. I know I made the right choice I consider it a bullet dodged. Scary to think how I was about to sign a lease with him and marry him. Still hurts tho and idk why :/ I recognize its for the best but im still heartbroken. I'll definitely be looking into that book tho!
An intelligent hard working independent girl giving it up for nothing. Such a waste
Atleast she’s got experience to fall back on should there ever come a time she needs it. Very sensible.
Never ever give up your life for a man. You will be lonely and miserable and bored.
I'm glad she worked before getting married. If things change in her decisions/life it will be easier for her to start a new life again. Wishing her the best.
What a beautiful wedding, she is such a lovely girl and I do feel a little sad for her. She knows her life is never going to be the same. It is a shame that they are not allowed to break free of some traditions, she really would have enjoyed being at work instead of stuck in a caravan!
bro as a mother how can you be happy telling your daughter she’ll have to keep her mouth shut and listen to her husband? her mom says both of these things at one point in the episode and i’m in awe
A lovely smart girl spending her life cleaning that bloody tin box that she lives in all day long. What a life !
That poor child. Raised in a community where she must do as her husband says. It can be very dangerous to be in that position if her husband abuses his power
Adjustment is one thing but if you absolutely hate the life you're living, it's wrong for you. I simply hope things work out for her.
I'm a gypsy and worked for just over 5 years as a carer for disabled adults that was giving their personal care , cook clean and support them for all individuals needs. I loved it but I said the only reasons I'd ever go is if I get married or sacked and getting married puzzled them lol when I told them I was a gypsy they was delighted and genuinely praised my work and commitment. I've been married almost 2 years and 5weeks away having a baby
She didn’t want to get married, that’s a fact. Hope she’s good
This young woman is to good for this !When she said it's like a prison .I was thinking the same thing.Its pretty sad that they aren't allowed to have both a marriage and a career like regular people.She deserves so much better 💔Shes to good for this
I feel very sorry for her!Gone from independent to under the thumb of a man!
I hope you find happiness, wherever it may be. Remember, It's never too late to change your mind, good luck girl.
I would love to see an update on this smart and beautiful young lady!
I have rewatched that "he's going to be a bit shocked but I'm a gypsy" and he's like "You are!?" 👀
Wow...my first wise gypsy girl I have seen on this series... respect girl👋
Facts but I hate that she had to leave her job. I wish they let her keep working cuz I seen on alot of other episodes that the man get jobs but they aren't even good enough and can sentence them to jail.
Respect to her and her parents!
Because she's actually an adult. Not 16
@@nutmegsonuttz8854 true and she can read and write better cuz she had time to work on it.
She doesn't seem very wise tho, mature maybe but not wise.
It’s one thing to leave work to take care of your children. There’s so much to do. But to leave work just to sit at home alone and be a housewife is awfully boring.
She is the most sane gypsy bride on the show...
I AGREE!!! Extremely smart and wise beyond her years!!!
I feel bad she had to keep her identity as a Gypsy quiet. No wonder they dont trust outsiders. I hope shes doing well and is happy, now.
How has marriage added value & improved her life? What has she gained that's made her happier? She's called her trailor a prison & hates where she's living 😳
Sounds positively miserable….she’s miserable.
Proof that a gypsy wedding can be simple and elegant. Lovely.
Of course you have to ignore all the other weddings that end in disaster, fights destroying the venue horse races on the lawns...... They make peaky blinders look tame
Seems like she got married just because society tells her it's what you do. I don't think she looks happy about it.
The fact that I’m 19 and feel like a baby! theres no way I am ready for marriage in 4 years. Maybe a start of a relationship but not marriage😭
To think people have babies as well so young😩
The advice her mother gave her 😳
Yeah. She was annoying.
She is a beautiful young woman, inside and out. I’m so happy to see a gypsy wedding video with so much class… compared to the other videos. And her WHITE dress is gorgeous!
What a fabulous bright intelligent girl...I'd love to know how she is now
I have so much respect for this girl., she is level headed and mature beyond her years.
She looked stunning in her dress.
I hope she is happy in her life now. X
I really love what this woman has done with her life. I truly hope her husband is understanding and allows her to have some form of independence.
Also random but omg the bride has BEAUTIFUL TEETH. She’s all around beautiful tbh! Very natural.

‘Husband doesn’t want to be filmed incase it jeopardises business’
Her mum then proceeds to tell the camera his name 😂😂🤣
Marriage and customs are prison for far too many women in 21 century. I can't believe parents want such "the best" for their daughters.
I believe it’s a lot about saving face in this sort of culture especially for the fathers.
It's called growing up, not living like adult children
It's so devastating that she has to change her life to get married, without even knowing what it's like to live with a man. The first morning after the wedding a gypsy woman might realize there is nothing fun about not going to work and depending on her husband 😟
being controlled,
and expecting to have babies ASAP 😱
Violet Ann is a lovely lovely lady👏👏🤗
"The money it's costing me I'd have hired a hitman.." Lol. Never heard that one before
What a lovely girl.
She looks just beautiful. Prettiest gypsy bride I have seen yet on this show.
That wedding looked amazing and she looked absolutely gorgeous in her wedding dress! I hope she’s doing great in life now!
Breaks my heart to see her giving up everything for a man. Their so called traditions are so misogynistic.
Right??!! It’s crazy
"She will have to do what her husband says..." Wait what???
I had a good laugh at that one!! Been married 14 years and I don't just "do what my husband says" , and I'm sure he wouldn't have me if I did!! We are equals, a team, we compromise..or it wouldn't work.

So many women who are forced to spend their lives with a boring man and a boring hamster-wheel life just cause tradition says so. I wish her all the best, I hope she will find joy in her life one way or another❤️
Watching this, I sadly think her mother was a contributing factor. When she said about kicking her back and all that, I was so angry.
It’s so sad that these young women become slaves, whilst the males are treated like gods, all because of what they have between their legs.
I feel it was pressure from her mother to have her married. Poor girl. 😢😢😢
This was the most normal looking gypsy bride I've ever seen.
Breaks my heart to see her giving up everything for a man. Their so called traditions are so misogynistic.
She's so matured and she understands what she's getting into
no she didnt and is now divorced
Yes divorced
Is she really divorced?!
@@victoriarubens6002 yes she somehow lasted eight years and didn't have any kids because she was afraid of raising them in such a toxic environment, it sound like a pretty abusive relationship
@@wynwilliams6977 can’t believe it! What a shame for them
It makes so really sad the way her mum talks about the situation.
I just left an unhealthy relationship and my mum has been nothing but an advocate for my happiness. I can't imagine hearing her say stuff like "do what your partner says" or "keep your mouth shut". I know it's a different culture but damn
It's a shit culture that as you go east, marries kids off at 11 and 12 years old and has girls with three kids by age 16. Then they complain they are poor and discriminated against. They are the architects of their own woes. No time for them. Only minority in Europe that clings to child marriage and shuns all education in favour of kids fucking kids and having babies. They prefer running organized begging rings and constant pointless reproduction to going to school.
So if she was raised her whole life in a solid house oh, why go back to being a traveler? Why can't her and her husband also just buy a house? You can retain the memories of your history without having to repeat exactly how they lived. It was obviously a different world back then. You could just stop anywhere make a campfire. Today that would be trespassing.
Exactly
true, too bad if hubby loves living on the side of a highway in a van..after all he makes all the decisions.NO any good marriage both come togther to make plans..If she is still married,I bet she is not happy, she is staying married as that is all she knows.
I'd love to live in a caravan and live a nomadic life. You're missing a trick.
@@lah1667 What’s stopping you then
@@Traveler-rf8ye good question!
"When I get married, I can't up and go when I like, I'll have a husband to feed." Excuse me, are you getting married to a toddler?
First gypsy I can stand lol! she seems great! she it sounds like shell be a great mother, not pushing her daughter to marry right away!
I married at 18, he was 25, we are still happily married 22 years later. I married a man from Europe, Croatia, I can come and go as I please. I cook , clean, etc but he does it 2, I think we have a 50/50 and I LOVE IT
If this is what she really wants to do, then great, but I wouldn’t. Not in a million years. No one should be forced to depend on someone else. All it means is that he will have leverage over her and that’s been happening to women for far too long. Forced tradition deserved to be abolished.
Many women who have had to be independent would appreciate very much having a 'traditional' role. Depends on your disposition, but often we are independent due to need rather than any desire to be.
@@Chahlie your comment is so underrated. I completely agree
She looks like she’s unhappy and dreading it ! And who wouldn’t 😳
22 is a spinster?? I didn’t get married until I was almost 34.
They use this old language forgetting we live to 90 regularly now
I am 55 I will never give myself up for a man.
I respect there customs but it’s time for them to allow women to work and not keep women chained to their husbands and making them get married at such a young age if they’ve never been educated and always lived at home they don’t have enough maturity to get married and a lot of gypsy men don’t respect their wife’s as long as the house is spotless and they have a house full of kids they don’t care it’s all very sad
@@paulpupo8799 no
I always watch these things and always thank God for not being born into this culture. As much as I respect this woman, there is no way I could do what she is doing.
She is just lovely!!! I hope her new life is giving her much happiness.
An amazing woman to juggle those two cultures and navigate in both with whit an grace. People all her life will be lucky to know her . God bless 🌈🤍🕊🙏🏼🕊🤍❤️🇨🇦
She’s talented and beautiful. She can do more with her life.
Marriage doesn’t mean you give up what makes you happy. Good marriages are best when both are happy.
@@jaxjax3494 yes but in this marriage she's expected to give up everything that's gypsies tradition all of her work just to be reduced to childbearing and chores anyway they did get divorced she seems happier
@@taymorrie5921 how did you know that she got divorced?
@@noura4157 I search her online her name is violet ann
@@taymorrie5921 heaven forbid a woman chooses children and a family over a 9-5. Lol when did modern feminism turn into Corporate hacks
I’ve known this woman me whole life absolutely love her
How is she doing now? We're all so curious!
Violet Ann is mature, smart, reasonable, strong, level-headed, decent, and pragmatic. If that's not marriage material, I don't know what is?! Larry is one lucky man. I hope Violet Ann has many happy years with him!!
Beautiful with a sexy figure. Larry is lucky man indeed.
That’s not marriage material. That’s material for a strong, independent female who should be able to make her own decisions without her parents nagging her to carry on a commitment that will very likely end in divorce and lost time out of the workplace. She had so much potential.
@@dr.apollo4226 If a kind, moral, smart woman WANTS to get married, (and she WASN'T forced), why shouldn't she get it?! Violet Ann deserves what she wants!! 😏😏
I’ve seen comments saying their divorced now but I’m not sure where people heard it.
Norrya you are deranged. How can you watch that and think that Violet Ann could be happy in that situation? She describes her life as a prison.
Violet Ann is lovely and I wish her all the happiness in the world
I just feel for her, as she was so used to working, having her freedom to come & go, a car, a life & being so close to her mum & da. I just don't think Gypsy life will make her truly happy. God bless, I do wish her & her new husband the best🙏
Okay but can we talk about all the guests that were girls, their outfits/ dresses were so freakin cute and I want this one 7:36 the pink and green fluffy one! And all the other ones were hella stylish
Beautiful bride and the dress was stunning.
