What happened to Idaho's famous runaway bride?

Step aside, Julia Roberts.

Did you know that Idaho has its own version of Roberts'? The bride who doesn't dare Monette Dias, who starred on TLC's 2021 show Addicted to Marriage, has married 11 times, but what happened to the woman dubbed the “divorce queen” by the media?

Scroll to see photos of Dias' 11 ex-husbands…

Like Roberts' character in the 1999 romantic comedy who suffered from chronic cold feet, our bride from Idaho had a knack for saying “I do.” As audiences expected, Roberts eventually found American Gigolo star Richard Gere and settled down.

Was Dias' 11th wedding her last?

Three years later, Dias appears to be unmarried. Is the British and Australian author, wedding planner and interior designer still looking for her soul mate?

According to a Facebook post divided on August 25th: Dias's personal and professional well-being is her top priority these days.

I started a new job a month ago. I knew it was the right thing for me and I turned it down [other] sure jobs to have the one I wanted. I have never loved a job or helping people more than [I have] work for Nuvia! I love a beautiful smile!

-Monette Diaz, Facebook

Good for her! It's refreshing to see Idaho's former “runaway Bride,” to invest in yourself and give it priority own Happiness. After enduring the painful endings of eleven marriages, she is focused on her own needs and her future, and we are happy for her.
