There are many traditions that take place during weddings, and one of the more silly ones is the cake smash between the bride and groom.
Typically, the couple each takes a piece of cake and lovingly smashes some of it onto the other’s face. It’s not an elegant moment typically, but in a video that was shared on TikTok in January 2021, one groom took the term cake smash a little too far.
In a clip that has been viewed more than 2.8 million times on TikTok, on the account @Kelsboyd3, a bride can be seen playfully wiping cake on her husband’s face.
But it’s the groom’s reaction – that many have labelled as “aggressive” – that has people concerned.
As the bride takes a step back from him, he grabs the entire three-tier cake and smashes it into the side of her face, with the impact causing her to stumble a few steps into a nearby chair.
Since being posted, the video has received more than 92,000 likes and almost 9,000 comments from unimpressed viewers who said his actions were a “red flag”.
The video ends before we can see much of Kelsey or the crowd’s reactions, but people who saw the video online were quick to share their concerns with the bride. Some said Tony looked angry when he threw the cake and that the marriage will likely end in divorce. Kelsey said she found it funny, but that hasn’t persuaded commenters who insist the cake smash was a sign of a violent person. Read on to hear more reactions to the wedding video.
The twist that Tony put on the typical cake smash was meant to be a joke, but many viewers saw it as a red flag. Some even said that the couple should get divorced for the wife’s safety.
If you pause the video at the end you can see that Kelsey is laughing, so some people jumped to Tony’s defense.
“They both found it funny … it’s none of anyone else’s business,” one person wrote. “As long as you’re happy, that’s what matters,” added another.
Still, the majority of viewers were not convinced that the cake throwing was all in good fun. A TikTok user commented, “But the way his face looks angry and he throws the whole cake … yeah, no.”
After seeing so many comments from concerned viewers, Kelsey decided to leave a message on the video.
“This is us and it was funny to everyone. I’m sorry that you have a different sense of humor,” she said in a since-removed comment, according to the Mirror. However, even though the bride was adamant that this was meant to be funny and nothing else, it did not stop more people from chiming in with their comments.
In an effort to show everyone that the couple really has a different side to them and loves them, the bride uploaded a build of cute and cozy photos of the couple in an attempt to soften the words. criticize. However, this didn’t help and people continued to leave comments of concern.
One person tried to put their point of view differently after the second video was uploaded, “The girl we believe you love him. To us it’s the opposite. This is scary because it’s not love. No matter how many ‘couple photos’ you post.” ”
Another added, “If you’re worried about the whole Internet… then maybe there’s a reason for that. People don’t hate, we’re really concerned.”
Another man felt the urge as he wrote, “Sorry girl. As a man who has been married for 11 years, that’s not okay. A man shouldn’t do anything. Sorry, but you need to hear this.” Almost all of the comments expressed concern for Kelsey, with hardly any suggesting that the relationship between Kelsey and her new husband is healthy and/or different from what is expected. they saw on video. One person defended Kelsey by writing, “Both find that funny…it’s nobody else’s business.”
Kelsey was unaffected by any comments and – at the time of publishing this story – updated her TikTok profile with the phrase, “A CAKE never hurt anyone.” .
