Woman who married herself files for divorce after one year
A London-based influencer, Sullen Carey, has divorced herself after just one year of marriage. The 36-year-old Brazilian model made headlines last year when she wed herself in a ceremony widely recognized as “sologamy.”
She shared the unconventional event with her 400,000 Instagram followers, attracting significant media attention worldwide.
According to reports, Carey’s decision to end her solo marriage came despite her efforts to make it work, including attending couples therapy sessions by herself.
Suellen sought therapy to navigate her emotions, undergoing 10 sessions to save her self-marriage. Ultimately, she decided that ending the marriage was the healthiest choice. “I was putting a lot of pressure on myself, which left me exhausted,” she confessed, acknowledging the emotional toll it had taken.
Though she described marrying herself as an “enriching” experience and a journey of self-discovery, Suellen said she has no regrets about ending it. “I realised my sologamous marriage was a healing process, but personal growth can lead us in different directions,” she explained.
Suellen said she is ready for a new chapter, expressing openness to a traditional relationship. “I’ve decided it’s time to move on and open my heart to new possibilities, including finding a partner.”
