Leyla and Mike Heiter: Wedding ceremony in their father’s home country

Leyla Lahouar (29), recently cheerful, and her husband Mike Heißen (33) can no longer get out of celebrating her love. After their civil wedding in Germany in July and before their big party at the end of August, the two reality stars celebrated another emotional wedding ceremony on the beach of Sousse in Tunisia.

The nightly beach ceremony was a surprise that Leyla’s mother had organized together with an uncle. And in a very special place: in the home of Leyla’s late father Zouhaier, who died in 2018 under unexplained circumstances. “Of course I realize that I’m really emotional. It is sad to know that dad is not there,” said Leyla cheerfully.

Nevertheless, her father was of course very close to her at that moment, according to the former jungle camp candidate: “My uncle and aunts cry, tell me: ‘Your dad would be so proud of you’. My uncle also said that Papa was so happy that I found a great man like Mike. That means so much to me.”

For husband Mike it was the first time in the home of his father -in -law. He was warmly welcomed by the big family there: Leyla’s father had twelve siblings and everyone immediately closed the 33-year-old. Mike’s mother will also travel to Tunisia in a few days to get to know the family.

At the celebration, both traditional Tunisian robes wore and felt “even more connected” with Leylas roots. If you see the bride and groom of drummer and dancers walk through an arch on the beach, later they also tried themselves on the instruments. Of course, a wedding cake should not be missing, which was decorated with a photo of her civil wedding.

However, the celebration in Tunisia was still not the end of the wedding celebrations. On August 30th, the great fairy tale wedding of the Heiters will take place on the Italian amal fiest, which is to be transferred live. Leyla and Mike Heighed to know each other, who gained awareness through various reality formats, in January 2024 in the jungle camp.
