Junelle Lyles Speaks Out Amid Public Backlash To Noah Lyles’ Response To Her Wedding Dress “First Look”
In footage obtained by TSR, Junelle took to social media to handle the “mixed reviews” of her and Noah’s “first look.” Moreover, she explained that the day was “quite a bit emotionally.” This, reportedly, was because lots of her members of the family and shut friends were unable to attend the Georgia ceremony as a consequence of their lack of visa access. As well as, she explained that she was left “holding back tears” because a special guest who was set to deliver a speech also didn’t attend.
Ultimately, she explained that the “first look” moment with Noah was done with the intention of his making her “talk” and distracting her from her frustrations.
“So what he gave, I actually appreciate,” she explained, adding that Noah was “surprised” that she was wearing a princess-style gown because she told him she was going to wear a mermaid dress.
Before concluding, Junelle also addressed critics who were saying that Noah doesn’t love her.

You won’t ever discuss with these people in real life. Why do I would like to handle anything with strangers?”
