The peace rice winner has won in love too. On Instagram, she shared photos from the wedding.
Peace Prize winner and rights activist Malala Yousufzai (24) has married.
She announced this on her Instagram profile on Tuesday afternoon.
Here she also shares wedding photos with her new husband Asser Malik, who works as operations manager in the Pakistan Cricket Association.
– Today marks a precious day in my life. Asser and I agreed to be partners for the rest of our lives.
She further writes that the wedding consisted of a small nikkah ceremony – an Islamic wedding ceremony – at home in Birmingham in England with their families.
– We look forward to our journey further, she writes
Yousufzai won international acclaim for her opposition to the Taliban’s efforts to prevent girls from attending school.
When she was 15, she was shot in the head by a Taliban member and flown to England for treatment.
In 2014, she received the Nobel Peace Prize at the age of 17, and thus became one of the youngest recipients of the prize ever.
Last year she completed her education at the University of Oxford with a degree in philosophy, politics and economics.
