Underwear model Carley Watts has announced that she is giving up her career and converting to Islam to marry the love of her life.
The 24-year-old fell for Tunisian lifeguard, Mohamed Salah, so she has decided to cover her body head to toe according to Islamic teachings.
She met and fell in love with the 25-year-old lifeguard while on vacation in Tunisia. She was so serious about him that she agreed to convert to Islam.
Watts has a two-year-old daughter named Alannah. They will both be relocating to the city of Monastir, close to Salah’s family.
Watts told The Sun that her friends did not agree with her decision:
“They can’t get their heads round me going from being the last girl standing on every night out to wearing a veil and converting to Islam. Meeting Mohamed has made me really look at my life. I don’t want to be going wild, flashing my boobs and falling out of nightclubs any more. But we couldn’t be more different.
” Watts also said that Salah’s family where shocked when they learned she was a single mother, so no way would they be told about her modeling career.
She said, “He explained that he loved me and wanted me to be his wife and they have come round to that. He accepts that [glamor modelling] is what I do and doesn’t try to change me. But he says once we are married my body is for his eyes only. Single mums don’t exist in his world and men who get unmarried women pregnant go to prison. It is all about family and he idolizes his mother.”
Carley Watts claimed that she was very happy with her decision: “These are the kind of values I love about their culture. Women are treated with respect and they also respect themselves and their bodies. They don’t do one-night stands or casual flings. When I’m with Mohammed I feel so content, calm and happy. I know he’s the kind, family man for me.” So, Carley Watts is exchanging a bikini for a burka and paying no attention to the famous Chinese saying “be careful what you wish for…..”
