I do … not.

A 42-year-old man from Texas learned he was married to his former fiancée without his consent after receiving the marriage certificate at his home, just days following their breakup.

Kristin Marie Spearman, 36, allegedly sent her ex a Bath & Body Works gift bag containing some items and a copy of an officiated marriage license bearing their names on June 13, as reported by Fox 44.

Spearman allegedly also included a photo of herself holding up the document that legally recognized their relationship.

The unnamed victim disclosed to authorities that they were in a relationship around June 2 when they visited the county clerk’s office to obtain a marriage license.

Both parties “must appear in person” and have valid identification to receive an application for a marriage license, according to McLennan County’s website. 

Spearman and her ex-fiancé never made it to the altar. The pair got into an argument when the victim allegedly claimed he didn’t want to be in a relationship with her anymore.

Spearman seemingly had other plans for their future.

Beverly Hills Police Chief Kory Martin claimed Spearman went behind the victim’s back and convinced a pastor to certify a marriage, even though the man wasn’t in attendance or even aware of a ceremony.

“I don’t think in 23 years I’ve ever heard of anybody who managed somehow to get married to someone who wasn’t present for a ceremony,” Chief Martin told the outlet.

After the reverend signed off on the fraudulent wedding, Spearman took a certified marriage license to her local county clerk’s office and filed the certificate with officials, police said.

The stunned victim learned about the marriage filing days after he dumped her, according to the outlet.

“I’ve talked to the victim and he’s going through a significant process to try to have to fix this,” Chief Martin added. “So that’s a whole other situation is– not only you have the concern of ‘What does that mean for my safety and my property?’ You know, which is a huge conversation in this, but also, ‘What do I have to do to fix it?’”

Police arrested Spearman and charged her with third-degree felony stalking.

She was booked into the McLennan County Jail.
