A British couple have caused outrage on the Greek island of Rhodes with a wedding photo in which the couple perform a sex act in front of a Greek Orthodox monastery, leading the head of the islands Greek Orthodox Church to ban future foreign weddings.
The groom, Matthew Lunn, posted a photo of his new wife Carly on Facebook as she knelt in her white dress, appearing to perform oral sex on her new husband.
No one expected the international reaction as the photo soon went viral and eventually reached local news media on Rhodes and Metropolitan Kyrillos, the head of the islands Greek Orthodox Church.
Kyrillos announced a decision to ban all foreign weddings at the monastery of St Paul, a popular venue for British tourists where hundreds of dream weddings take place every year.
Giorgos Eleftheriou, president of the local Lindos community in Rhodes, told The Times of London We are Greek and we cherish our traditions and the sanctity of our religious sites. We cannot allow this disgusting behavior to prevail.
Eleftheriou added that the ban by the Greek Orthodox Metropolitan leaves hundreds of British couples scrambling to change their wedding plans.
I have hundreds of soon-to-be brides from Britain and all over the world calling me today in tears because of this decision, he said.
If I were God, this would be the straw that would break the camel's back. I would wipe out the world PRONTO.
Seems like it’s becoming a “trend”. Several of these photos have popped up in headlines lately.
what a tacky couple.
Mum and Dad must be proud.
Read all about it! 2 Brits acting more vulgar than any American tourist evah!!
Can’t blame that on Trump, now can you?
LOL, Has the Pappas Post sold 1B copies yet?
No need to ban foreigners. Just ban the British. The old stereotype of the Ugly American Tourist no longer applies. Most Americans I see overseas are pretty reserved, polite, and well-behaved. Everywhere I’ve been in the world that is the least bit touristy always has drunken brits on holiday. They come in crowds, they’re loud and rude. I feel bad for the many Brits I’ve met on holiday who are quite nice and respectful of their host countries people and culture. I’m sure they get a bad rap because of their countrymenc

“Kyrillos announced a decision to ban all foreign weddings at the monastery of St Paul....”
If they’re gonna act that way, f**k ‘em.
Azcap, thanks for the response. I wasn’t even focusing on which country the malefactors hailed from. If I were God, the behavior of these two pigs, regardless of their nation of origin, would provoke me to wipe out the entire world. I’ve had it with trashy behavior.
AN article from some ten days ago has the bride saying how funny it was and that she loves that other couples are copying the photo. Flash forward to today and now she is mortified and has gone into hiding.
God, help us, and I mean that literally: God, help us.
and Oh My God.... their family took the photos. Never mind. They REALLY must be proud.
There is an ongoing problem with British tourists doing things like this all over the world. I can’t tell you how many times I have been to a country where the local people told me about something like this British tourists did recently and how outraged they were. Many people in countries around the would like to ban them.
Americans have a good reputation as tourists. Part of that is relatively few, mostly wealthy and well educated Americans travel much.
Scumbags - don’t respect anything!
Who does this?!
The Brits can be very obnoxious its true. But Russian yuppies from Moscow and St. Petersburg can really give them a run for their money.
Well, as William Jefferson Clinton once stated on national television [paraphrased] “it really depends on the definition of what is is...” he was referring to oral sex and the definition of sex in that context. Hillary sat dutifully next to Willy nodding her noggin in mock acceptance.
For some odd reason Willie Jeff didn’t agree that oral sex was sex at all... In all probability, and I jest here, he was trying to wiggle out of a tight spot. I’m not sure if the Moussad operative Lewinsky had presented the blue dress for evidence at this point. Perhaps not but when she did l and the trophy was analyzed, BAM!
Preposterous as it might seem, Klintoon might have actually reconciled that oral sex was just akin to a peck on the cheek, and he actually thought people were going to buy into his warped sense of reason, which is the weirdest part of it all.
The human mind, or rather the debauched human mind appears to find certain perversions acceptable which are well outside of social norms. Carnality abounds. It is indeed a sad commentary.
And I thought matching pastel tuxes for groomsmen was tacky...
About six months ago, there was an article on all the various ex-pat groups in Japan. The top three (Chinese, Korean, Filipino) all have crime rates higher than the native Japanese. The lowest and fourth largest group in numbers— Americans.
The behavior and photos are bad enough. Wickedness in the heart is worse. And a lot of that wickedness hides in "robes of (self)-righteousness in pew after pew and is also rife among spiritual "leaders" of every flavor.
