European honeymoons are the stuff dreams are made of, but for British blogger Peony Lim it soon turned into a nightmare.
The fashion blogger ended a notable absence from her Instagram account – which has almost 90,000 followers – by surprising her fans with an update on the events of the past two weeks.
“I’m sorry I have been absent online recently. As you might have guessed from this photo a lot has happened. Meet my husband Matthew,” she wrote next to an image of her and her husband on their wedding day.
“I didn’t plan on introducing him like this, but things don’t always work out how they’re planned.”
Lim told her fans that she would fill them in on the details of her wedding another day, but wanted to share the “frightening” events of her honeymoon to let others who may be “struggling” know they are not alone.
She said their honeymoon to the Italian Lakes was, in the beginning, idyllic as the couple toured on speedboats and luxury cars.
“Everything was perfect. We couldn’t have been happier or more excited,” she wrote.
“Each hotel and lake was stunning. We spent our time exploring villages looking for local fare with our little convertible Abarth and speedboats.”
Listen: A study shows being a bridesmaid is the equivalent of a full week’s work. Is it time to ditch them?

Any surgery carries it's own risk, and if not treated promptly appendicitis can be life threatening, causing peritonitis and sepsis. So this would have been a harrowing and frightening experience!
A friend of mine had appendicitis and ended up in ICU after her surgery to have her appendix removed. There was some kind of complication that affected her bowel and required more surgery. Took her months to recover.
Yeah, that didn't happen in this case. The author was just being a bit of a snowflake.
A bit melodramatic. He only had he's appendix out, not open heart surgery ffs
