A trending video of a couple has tongues wagging after the husband seemingly ignored his wife on her birthday instead of focusing on his phone.
The video posted by the wife’s friend @vividsprings showcased the couple celebrating the wife’s 45th birthday when the man opted for screen time instead.
The couple held the knife in the clip to cut the birthday cake while their guests and well-wishers sang melodiously to celebrate the day.
As his wife waited for his attention and regard, the man’s fingers flew across his phone’s screen, oblivious of her presence. Due to the man’s inattentiveness, the singer in the background attempted to lengthen the song to heed the man’s attention.
As the video went viral, it triggered negative remarks with many criticizing the man for refusing to prioritize his family affairs ahead of work or whatever could engage him on his wife’s birthday.
While some confirmed that the man’s behavior was disrespectful to his wife in front of her guests, others emphasized the wife’s expression, suggesting that she appeared sad on her special day.
Internet users advised that individuals marry a spouse who cares to listen and be corrected.
