Enemy lesbian nuns quit convent and marry each other

It tells the story of two former novice nuns who leave the convent, fall in love, and get married.

Francilia Costa and Luisa Silverio, known online as “Double Wow” (Dupra Oxihuay), first met in a convent in Brazil in 2019.

According to the Daily Star, Costa was raised by devout grandparents who encouraged him to join a convent, while Silverio joined the convent as a teenager looking for purpose.

The two did not initially like each other, with Silverio admitting that she thought Costa was “an insufferable, stuck-up little nun”. Costa also revealed that he didn’t like Silverio, but there was no particular reason.

In this case, the closeness deepened the love, and the two gradually became close friends. However, during their time in the monastery, they each struggled with their mental health.

Costa experienced panic attacks during the pandemic and began to question whether living in a convent was good for his health, while Silverio struggled with anxiety and depression after his grandmother’s death.

“Religious life is very beautiful, but it requires physical and mental health. Praying or having a profession is not enough,” Costa said.

Costa and Silverio made the decision to leave the convent in 2020 for mental health reasons. As they got used to their new life, neither of them could afford to live alone, so they continued to live together outside the monastery.

Then, one night in 2023, Costa and Silverio watched Love in the Villa, a romantic comedy about two enemies who fall in love while sharing a villa, and Costa realized his true feelings for his friend.

She admitted her feelings to Silverio, who kissed her back.

The couple are now married, and at their wedding in 2025 they posed with a statue of the Virgin Aparecida, Brazil’s patron saint.

“There may not be a photo on the altar of the church, but there is a photo with Virgin Aparecida,” Silverio said. “For us, she represents gratitude, intercession and the consecration of our family to God.”

Costa and Silverio use their social media accounts to share their experiences with faith, sexuality, and post-monastic life.

“Our sexuality and our faith should not be separated, because they are part of who we are,” Costa says. “We are a couple of faith. Nothing can separate us.”
