A Saudi model named Jojo who has apparently lived in America for a while announced her engagement to a boyfriend of a different religion on Instagram in 2019.
No one seemed to care.
They got married last October. No one seemed to care.
But last week, she published some of her wedding photos - and he was wearing a kippah.
Sites say that his wearing the kippah "indicates his religiosity and extremist." The same Jordanian site says "Wearing this beanie is one of the teachings of ultra-Orthodox Judaism as it says in the Talmud: 'Cover your head so that the wrath of heaven is not over you.' (according to their claim)." This is a made up Talmud quote, from what I can tell.
Joja, who does not mention the name of her husband, defends her marriage saying "The Jews are not only a religion but a race. He is of a Jewish race, but he does not know anything about the Jewish religion and does not believe in it, neither he nor his mother nor his father...My husband is of Jewish origin, but he is not a Jew. He is a Muslim and loves our religion and loves the Arabs and hates the Jews and their customs, but he cannot escape from his origins, whether on occasions or traditions, and I am the one who made him convert and love my religion."
Muslims are skeptical, noting that the couple had a civil ceremony so there is no indication that he converted.
Either way, it says something that she has to defend him by saying not only that he converted but that he hates Jews and Judaism - since that was the only way she felt she can retain her Arab fans.
