Valentine’s Day: Hearts, Chocolates, Love… and a Shocking Secret?!

Back in 269 AD, Emperor Claudius II believed love made soldiers weak, so he banned marriage. But one man—St. Valentine—defied him, secretly performing weddings in Rome. When Claudius found out, he had Valentine captured and sentenced on February 14.

Before his final moments, legend says Valentine sent a note to his jailer’s daughter, signing it “From Your Valentine.” 💌

Centuries later, his story transformed into the holiday we know today. But how did a day of defiance turn into chocolates and roses? 🤔
