Shocking Mock Wedding Sparks Outrage
Imagine a fairy-tale wedding at Disneyland Paris, with a glittering castle, a giant cake, and a nine-year-old bride! A British man, pretending to be a groom, staged a jaw-dropping $150,000 fake wedding with a child, fooling everyone from park staff to hired actors. This bizarre stunt, meant for social media clicks, has landed the mastermind in hot water, leaving folks wondering how this happened at the happiest place on Earth. Keep reading to uncover the wild details of this twisted tale!
Who’s Behind the Child Bride Hoax?
The main culprit, Jacky Jhaj, a 39-year-old Brit with a rap sheet as long as a rollercoaster, orchestrated this creepy caper. A convicted sex offender, Jhaj used a fake Latvian ID to book the Sleeping Beauty Castle before the park opened. With makeup to hide his face and forged papers, he tricked Disneyland into hosting his “wedding” to a Ukrainian girl, barely nine, dressed in a gown with heels taped to her feet. Ironically, Jhaj was also responsible for an explosion last year at O2 Arena in London.
How Did This Slip Through?
Disneyland Paris, usually a beacon of magic, got duped big time. Jhaj hired 100 to 300 actors, including kids, to play wedding guests, all clueless about the child bride twist. A sharp-eyed actor, paid $13,000 to be the “father of the bride,” noticed the girl’s age and sounded the alarm. Park staff halted the event faster than you can say “Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo,” calling the cops and saving the day. The happiest place on Earth almost hosted the creepiest show in town!
What Happened to the Child and Others?
The nine-year-old Ukrainian girl, thankfully unharmed physically, looked scared and confused, witnesses said. Her mother, 41, was arrested but later released, leaving folks scratching their heads about her role. A Latvian woman, hired as the “bride’s sister,” and a Latvian man, the whistleblower “father,” were also detained but freed. Jhaj, however, faces charges like fraud, identity theft, and money laundering, with more possibly coming. Looks like this “groom” won’t be riding off into the sunset!
Why Pull Such a Sick Stunt?
Jhaj claims it was a social media prank for clicks, but who spends $150,000 on a gag? His history of staging fake events with kids—like a sham movie premiere and a fake funeral—raises red flags. Is this guy a wannabe influencer or something far worse? French and UK police are digging into his cash flow and motives, wondering how a known creep keeps pulling off these elaborate schemes. Meanwhile, the internet’s buzzing with outrage over this twisted “fairy tale.”
What’s Next for Disneyland and Justice?
Disneyland Paris is licking its wounds, filing complaints and tightening its booking rules. The park’s quick action stopped the stunt, but questions linger: How did a predator slip through? So, what’s your take—how can we keep kids safe from stunts like this?
