Popular TikToker, Peller, has responded strongly to critics who have advised him against getting married, asserting that their advice is often rooted in poverty. The social media personality, who recently got engaged to his partner, Jarvis, has been the subject of attention due to his decision to marry at a young age. In a viral video posted on the platform X (formerly Twitter), Peller made it clear that age was not a concern for him when it comes to marriage and that he was fully ready for the commitment.
The video quickly went viral, with Peller confidently addressing those questioning his decision. He strongly suggested that the advice to delay marriage, which he has often heard from critics, is deeply influenced by financial struggles. Peller explained, “Let me tell you something, for all of you saying, ‘he’s young, he’s getting married,’ the truth is, your father and mother lied to you about waiting until a certain age to get married. The reason behind this is poverty.”
He elaborated, “It’s poverty, I swear to Almighty God. They tell you to marry when you’re older, not realizing that by then, you’ll have little money. No, it’s because of poverty.” His words resonated with many, as he made a bold challenge to the conventional wisdom around marriage age. Peller further emphasized that his decision to marry wasn’t influenced by societal expectations but rather by his personal readiness for the commitment.
In the video, Peller confidently stood by his decision, dismissing any doubts about his age and readiness for marriage. His statements sparked intense reactions from viewers, many of whom shared their opinions in the comment section. While some applauded Peller's decision, others expressed concern about his youthful perspective on marriage and its challenges.
