Confidence is key on a wedding day, and this bride radiated it in abundance. She challenges society’s perception head-on, using her wedding day as a platform to demonstrate that gray hair can be a striking and elegant feature to behold.
On July 2, a heartwarming moment captured the attention of millions when Miami makeup specialist, Tia Codrington, shаrеd a TikTok video featuring her client, Kadeja Baker, radiating beauty as she embraced her natural gray hair on her wedding day.
In the accompanying caption, Codrington expressed her admiration, stating, “I loved my bride’s natural gray hair. She’s had it since she was 16.” Little did they know that this extraordinary display of self-acceptance would soon set the internet abuzz, amassing an astonishing 1.4 million views and over 170,000 likеs.
“I initially didn’t have any expectations when posting the videos other than to shаrе her beauty through my eyes,” Codrington said. “But witnessing how she embraced and embodied the beauty of her hair was something I felt compelled to shаrе.”
Codrington added that it was “amazing” to know that Baker had the option to change her hair color for her wedding day, but chose to be herself and wear her natural hair color.Before her wedding planning process, Baker was not active on any social media platforms. In an interview, she admitted to feeling genuinely “sh.ocked” by the overwhelming attention her video received, describing the response as “plentiful” and heartening.
Reflecting on the unexpected viral fame, Baker humbly shаrеd, “I did not expect for the responses to be as plentiful as I look at myself in the mirror every day and did not think it was that big of a deal that I was embracing my natural hair and look.”

The 38-year-old bride expressed her surprise at the overwhelmingly positive comments on social media. Kadeja shаrеd that it took her many years to fully appreciate her own hair after the onset of graying during her teenage years.
Despite her initial reservations, she was deeply moved by the support and inspiration her video brought to others. Grateful for the kind words, she humbly said, “They’re saying I’m embracing myself, but I would tell them, ‘Thank you for taking that on and seeing it that away and allowing it to inspire them. Thank you for embracing me.’”
BEN AFFLECK, 52, SEEN WITH MYSTERY WOMAN WHO’S A JENNIFER GARNER LOOKALIKE
You might have thought that the drama involving Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez was over, especially since Jennifer officially filed for divorce last week.
But you’d be wrong.
It looks like there’s still more to this story, with new rumors and reports about what Affleck and JLo might do next showing up online.
If reports are true, Affleck could be moving on already—he’s been seen spending time with a mystery woman.
For a long time, it’s been clear that Affleck and Lopez’s marriage was in trouble. They got back together almost twenty years after their first breakup, and for a while, it seemed like they might finally get the happy ending their fans had always hoped for.
When ‘Bennifer’ surprised everyone by getting married in Las Vegas in 2022, it seemed like they were on track to be one of the most iconic celebrity couples of the 21st century.
Earlier this year, however, signs of trouble started to appear. People said that Affleck had moved out of the couple’s fancy Beverly Hills mansion, and both he and Lopez were spotted without their wedding rings at times.
With rumors spreading fast and people wanting answers, neither Affleck nor Lopez spoke out about what was happening. Their silence only made people believe even more that something was seriously wrong.
When Lopez canceled her planned tour of North America, saying she needed to spend time with her family, it was clear to many people that she and Affleck were likely headed for divorce.
Then, at the beginning of last week, Lopez officially filed for divorce at the Los Angeles County Superior Court. She did it on the very day that would have been their second wedding anniversary.
It’s unclear how the couple is dealing with the breakup privately, but it doesn’t seem like Affleck is sitting alone in a dark room, feeling sad about it. According to reports, the 52-year-old has been seen with the same female companion several times since Lopez filed for divorce.
The woman has caught the attention of people online, with some saying she looks a lot like Affleck’s ex-wife, Jennifer Garner.
The mystery woman is 36-year-old Kick Kennedy, the daughter of Robert F. Kennedy. Radar Online first reported on August 24, four days after JLo filed for divorce, that Affleck and Kennedy were seen spending time together.
Radar Online says that Affleck and Kennedy have been spotted at fancy places like the Polo Lounge at the Beverly Hills Hotel. However, neither of them has commented on their relationship.
One user on X (formerly Twitter) wrote: “Looks exactly like Jennifer Garner…”
Another person added, “She looks like his ex-wife, not JLo. Jennifer Garner.”
Someone on Instagram wrote, “Jennifer Garner look-alike.”
Another fan on Facebook said, “She looks more his type than J-Lo does… like Jen Garner more than Jen Lopez seems his type.”https://www.instagram.com/p/C_Gl_R7vky0/embed/captioned/?cr=1&v=14&wp=540&rd=https%3A%2F%2Fjokesdaddy.com&rp=%2Fben-affleck-52-seen-with-mystery-woman-whos-a-jennifer-garner-lookalike%2F%3Ffbclid%3DIwY2xjawFAINBleHRuA2FlbQIxMAABHVavgU8k52g0Umu4nxrHc8kqVpOkQxhyiJcedXubfY2VVbRtcbwuEDuxDg_aem_z5W7ZfLHjs7GXmtYZ83bvw#%7B%22ci%22%3A0%2C%22os%22%3A2117.699998855591%2C%22ls%22%3A1348.1999988555908%2C%22le%22%3A2108.199998855591%7D
Last week, fans made it clear they thought Affleck looked “happy” on the day Lopez filed to end their marriage.
Affleck was seen arriving back in Los Angeles with his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner, on August 20, the same day Lopez filed the divorce papers. This was enough to get people talking online.
One person commented on Instagram, “Man is happy!”
Another said, “He is so happy. I have never seen him smile like that. Whoa.”
A third person wrote, “He looks SO happy!”
Someone else added, “I kinda feel bad for JLo. I think she tried too hard to make it work, but he always showed a bad face with her, and with his kids’ mom, all happiness. Imagine how your wife may feel.”
