A Couple who divorced after 21 years because they could no longer stand the sight of each other are celebrating their first wedding anniversary – for the second time

Neville and Barbara Pearce first tied the knot in 1956. But after having two children they divorced in 1977 amid constant bickering.
Following the death of Neville’s second wife, also called Barbara, the couple fell in love again in 2012, despite 35 happy years apart.
They exchanged vows at St Thomas’ Church in their hometown of Barnsley, South Yorkshire.

Barbara, 79, said: “It was a really lovely day. It’s simple now. We get along and don’t argue.”
Neville, 81, said work and family pressures initially drove them apart.
“We were young and didn’t put enough into it,” he said. “But it’s all water under the bridge now.”
The couple said they would celebrate today with a pork pie and a bottle of beer
*I have never seen or heard of a Nigerian couple remarry after divorce because most times,they leave no room for reconciliation...Sometimes becoming parents can tear a couple apart,some understand and some dont....Na wah.
I know of a couple that broke up and fell in love again,they didnt have a child together and were only together for 7months....As you read this they are hiding and not wanting anyone to see them together,their reason is that their families would object because of all the bitter words hauled at each other

ReplyDeleteThere's a professor I work with, she has divorced and remarried the same man about 3 times. One day she was just super nice and calm, and I asked her, what's the news and she said its her fifth year anniversary and I said congrats and she said "well technically, this is my 3rd 5th anniversary" and I said Im sure this man is different, I see he makes you happy and what did I hear " oh no, there's been no other, he has been the only one, we have remarried three times, I should actually be celebrating 37 years from the first time we were married,but we are both crazy and that's why I keep going back." So many stories like that sef.
ReplyDeleteI'm seriously not surprised, thats their way of life.

ReplyDeleteI know a Nigerian couple that got back together ooo. Yes, they exchanged words. Family and friends were shocked they came back together after years apart. But this thing called love......
ReplyDeleteNow that's refreshingly different...... It's always better to end things amicably.
ReplyDeleteHappy for them
ReplyDeleteHmmm...happy for them !
ReplyDeleteIts really by Gods grace that most marriages work ...perseverance!
This shows that divorce is not always the answer to a bad marriage
ReplyDeleteEndless love
ReplyDeleteSister Stella no vex oooo. Am just too happy todayooooo. Just won à gift from twitter. h mon dieu. "@davelackie: We just drew our first Dahlia Divin winner! From France, it is @oziudo Enter our new Prada Candy Florale contest on http://t.co/jMzeBU6WkB. Thats me oooo. Woah.
ReplyDeleteThe reason it hardly happens here is that families interfere,feelings and egos are bruised with careless words said in the moments of madness hence letting everything deteriorate to irreconcilable differences.infact it always gets to a point each family tells their child they will disown them if they ever go back to that marriage.so basically d less messier a divorce is,the higher chance of reconciliation!
ReplyDeleteStella Idris won big brother ooh
DeleteThis is the real happily ever after.
ReplyDeleteTrue luv... Luv wey naija men de gv na boko haram luv..... Force n pain.
