A young bride has died of a heart attack just one hour after getting married in an Egyptian village, it was reported.

The young bride then felt sharp pains in her chest and needed to be taken to hospital.

Tragically she suffered a heart attack and sending her grieving family and local area into shock, according to Gulf News.

“She asked her family not to leave her. The bride was taken to a hospital where she breathed her last on arrival.”

It is unclear if the local authorities are investigating the bride’s death.

A similar incident took place in Egypt several weeks ago when a young woman was suddenly struck down with illness and passed away at a medical centre in Sharqia Governorate days before her big day.
