“She fell for a monk—and he left everything for her” 💔➡️❤️ What began as a chance encounter in a temple turned into a love story that defied centuries of tradition. From vows of silence to wedding vows, their journey will leave you stunned. See the rare family photos in the article below 👇
Mila, a woman of Ukrainian descent, spent many years living with her family in Riga. She always knew the 9-to-5 life wasn’t for her. So, alongside her brother, she launched an online shop that allowed her to work from anywhere. With that freedom, she began exploring the world. In just five years, Mila visited over 30 countries, living life to the fullest without any plans for marriage or settling down. But life had other ideas.
A Trip That Changed Everything
One day, Mila and her friends decided to travel to India. During their visit, they stopped at a Buddhist temple that welcomed visitors to stay, meditate, and experience monastic life. Intrigued, Mila decided to try it.
That’s where she met Ten—a monk from Thailand who happened to be the only one there who spoke English. He was assigned to guide her, and what started as polite conversation soon turned into something much deeper. Mila found herself falling in love.
There was one big complication: Ten was a monk, bound by vows that forbade romantic relationships. But Mila couldn’t ignore her feelings, and over time, it became clear that Ten felt the same way.
Six months later, Ten made a life-altering decision. He stepped away from monastic life, giving up his religious role to be with Mila. Their bond had grown too strong to ignore, and Ten chose love over tradition.
He brought Mila to Thailand to meet his family. Though she was prepared for a rough, simple life in the remote countryside, Ten’s background turned out to be quite the opposite—his family was financially comfortable.
At first, his parents were unsure, but when they saw how happy Mila made their son, they welcomed her warmly. Ten’s mother even confessed she had feared her son would never marry or give them grandchildren after becoming a monk. Mila changed all that.
The couple settled down and, after four years together, welcomed a daughter into the world. They officially got married and have now been together for seven years. Ten has transitioned into the business world, while Mila focuses on raising their child.
They both say they have no regrets—breaking the rules led them to the life they never expected but now cherish.
