Her Husband’s Best Man Proclaimed His Love For Her In A Speech At Her Wedding And Now, The Pair Are Married
As a bride or groom, imagining what your close friends and family might say during wedding speeches can be stressful. You might fear embarrassment, back-handed compliments, or even just awkward statements.
But rest assured, no wedding speech could go more sideways than the one that TikToker Desiree White shared with the world.
“At my first wedding to my ex, my now–husband was the best man. During his best man speech, he professed his love for me in front of everyone at the reception,” Desiree captioned her now-viral video.
She dropped this shocking bomb on the TikTok community with very little context. So, after her post reached over six hundred thousand people, users everywhere begged for a storytime.
Thankfully, she delivered a two-part series with all of the details.
Her story began in high school when she began dating her ex-husband. Around the same time, she also met her ex’s best friend, Bryant.
“I met Bryant when I was seventeen and he was sixteen in Geometry class,” Desiree explained.

Her then-boyfriend also met Bryant the same year, and the group quickly hit it off.
“We all became a friend group, and we were a part of each other’s lives,” Desiree said.
They went numerous on double dates as a group, Bryant would ask Desiree for girl advice, and the three would always call each other first with good news.
But, Desiree wants it known that she never had the hots for Bryant back then.
“I always try to explain to people that I never thought, ‘oh, I want Bryant.’ Nothing ever happened. But we always just clicked. There was just something about him that made it easy to connect,” Desiree said.
Unbeknownst to her, though, Desiree’s relationship with her ex started to go downhill.
It started later in high school when Bryant became “the guy who threw parties.” She claims she was never a “party girl” and had no idea what really happened at the events. Unfortunately, this included her ex not being faithful to her.
“I thought everything was peachy,” Desiree explained.
So, Desiree remained in a relationship with her boyfriend of the time and eventually got engaged. Then, the wedding rolled around, and Bryant made his life-altering speech.
“It went along the lines of, ‘I loved you ever since the moment I saw you. There is no one like you,'” Desiree said.
And that was not all. Bryant ended up remaining at the wedding reception and even approached Desiree again during the last dance of the evening.
“He said to me, ‘If I am the best man, then why didn’t you ever give me a chance? I would have always taken care of you.’ I was like, what?!” Desiree recalled.
She wrote off the statements and figured that Bryant was just babbling after a long night of drinking and dancing. So, after the wedding ended, Desiree had no doubts about her choice of husband at the time.
Unfortunately, though, her hopes for a loving partnership did not pan out so well in the long run.
“I was with my ex for less than a year and many red flags popped up throughout that time. But, one that I could not ignore was whenever a girl at work saw his picture. They would say they knew him,” Desiree said.
Even worse, Desiree had coworkers whose friends apparently dated him. She asked one particular coworker when and unearthed a heap of disappointing information.
“She started to give me a lot of information about how her friend had been dating my husband at the time,” Desiree said.
After doing some additional digging, Desiree learned that her husband had been sneaky and disloyal throughout their relationship. Thankfully, she decided that she would never stick around with that kind of partner.
“We got divorced, and going through the process was really rough on me. I was depressed, and Bryant was just really there for me,” Desiree recalled.
This was when her relationship with Bryant began to take form. He comforted Desiree unlike her past husband ever had; he was her shoulder to cry on.
But then, one day, the pair kissed. And the rest after that was history.
The couple quickly began dating and eventually got married after all.
Desiree and Bryant have now been happily married for ten years. They even have four boys together.
This couple’s story just goes to show that you can always find the “best man” for you– even if it takes a second try.
