Love can happen in unexpected ways, as seen with 37-year-old Meirivone Rocha Moraes from Brazil. She made headlines for marrying a life-sized ragdoll named Marcelo. They now have a family, including a 1-year-old son, Marcelinho, and newborn twin daughters, Marcela and Emilia.

Meirivone says her family life is just as complicated as any other mom’s and wife’s. She shares her experiences on TikTok, explaining that she and Marcelo share parenting duties equally, and Marcelo worries about money. “It’s tough, but I feel emotional every moment. Marcelo and I have a lot to do with our new babies and taking care of our first child. Even when I’m tired, he helps me with bathing, eating, and sleeping,” she says.

Despite challenges, Meirivone believes it’s all worth it. Marcelo always wanted a family and kids, so he’s happy with their life together. They dream of owning their own home, and Meirivone has been searching online every day since their wedding in 2018.

Their relationship, though unique, has its difficulties. In June 2023, Meirivone revealed that Marcelo cheated on her. As punishment, she made him sleep on the couch and removed his private parts. Additionally, in February 2023, their son Marcelinho was kidnapped, but thankfully he was returned safely.
