Grace Gelder was so fed up with the dating scene and single life that she decided to become the first person in Britain to marry HERSELF. Grace decided to commit to the most important person in her life, 'proposed' to herself last November on a park bench and staged a full wedding ceremony with 50 guests. According to her, after being single for six years she had built up a brilliant relationship with herself - and creating that bond with someone else seemed like too much hard work. Inspired by the Björk song Isobel, which includes the line, 'My name's Isobel, married to myself', the Londoner said the lyric struck a chord with her and it was then she decided to walk solo down the aisle. Grace bought a dress, a ring, rehearsed vows and eventually wed in a farmhouse in rural Devon watched by her sister and friends - sealing the deal by planting a kiss on a mirror. Speaking to the Guardian, she said: "A few did comment, in a light-hearted w...

And the divorce drama gets messier....:( A few days ago, Ini Edo took to twitter to confirm she is divorcing her hubby Phillip Ehiagwina, she however recited “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for the divorce and denied claims she had cheated on her husband. Well, relatives & friends of her soon to be ex husband are calling her out…saying she’s lying about being faithful. The close relative of Phillip Ehiagwina told PulseNG thus: Ini Edo should shut up about the marriage crash because with the way she is going by trying to paint Phillip as the wrong party, we may be forced to open her can of worms and it will not be palatable to her and her career. I can tell you that Ini Edo is a serial cheat who played the field behind her husband’s back for the duration of their marriage. Is she going to deny she was dating one Island big boy whose girlfriend organised her friends to beat her up and injured her? Another family source s...
