"I found out my sister was married from her WhatsApp status"
Updated | By Stacey & J Sbu
It is what it is...
Imagine you found out your sister got married, but instead of the usual wedding announcement, you see it on her WhatsApp status?!
You read right. A blood sister that you grew up with and have good relations with didn't tell you cause she simply... forgot, lost your number, who knows?
Well, this was a reality for @ZMjokozeli.
So he took to Twitter to share it with us
My sister got married last year without telling anyone. We only found out on WhatsApp stories.

To make matters worse, not only was he not told about the wedding, but it also happened LAST YEAR.
Can you believe it?!
The Twitter post has riled up a large number of South Africans as they discussed potential reasons for his sister's decision and their thoughts on it.
While some share similar experiences of their own weddings, others debated the importance of family.
Other users took to Twitter to console the brother..

I think I'm gonna normalize doing that as well... Family members can be the reason why one doesn't prevail in life. The jealousy and hate!

The brother replied to this user stating that his family did not experience the same as his.
We are not that bad, I promise lol

Lastly, one user shared her opinion on how the sister is "The main character" and the brother then stated that he still would've liked a ticket to the show...
See could’ve invited me. 😭 😭 😭

To end off this rollercoaster of a story, we find out that the reason the sister didn't invite the family is cause she is "over" the family.
She was over us. 😭

Family politics are hectic, we get it, but was it really worth causing more bad blood and having a brother missing out on a special moment? Or is this a reality check for the family?
What are your thoughts?
