#SHOWBIZ: Syed Saddiq's massage chair wedding gift steals the show
KUALA LUMPUR: A massage chair presented by Muar MP Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman to his new wife, actress and singer Bella Astillah, has amused Malaysians after the full-sized piece of furniture was wheeled straight into their wedding ceremony yesterday.
In a surprising turn of events, Malaysian MP Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman gifted his newlywed actress and singer wife Bella Astillah a full-sized massage chair during their wedding ceremony. The unusual choice, which included seven gift trays, quickly caught the attention of Malaysians on social media. One of the men tasked with carrying the wedding gifts, Shairy Hanapiah, shared his experience of being called at 11.25pm on the eve of the ceremony to help out.
He admitted to feeling nervous about maneuvering the bulky item through the venue, especially with the event being livestreamed. Despite the initial apprehension, everything went smoothly and the unexpected gift became a memorable moment for the couple and their guests. Syed Saddiq explained that he chose gifts focusing on health and financial security for his family, while Bella reciprocated with nine trays of gifts for her husband.
The couple exchanged their vows in front of close family and friends at a ceremony solemnized by former Federal Territories mufti Datuk Seri Dr Zulkifli Mohamad Al-Bakri.
