A couple walked the aisle again, 58 years after their first wedding followed by a divorce and marriages to other people.
76-year-old Ollie revealed that they had got married very early, in 1955, but gradually their relationship faded away as they "didn't find each other interesting", the Mirror reported.
She added that she "met another guy and fell in love" and her 79-year old former Army corporal husband, Wills, tried to get her back but she felt she had burned her bridges.
Later, she moved in with her lover Carl but they never fell out and were in touch because of the shared custody of their children.
Ollie went on to have four children with her lover and they wed in 1983, while Wills married someone else, then after losing his second wife he married again.
However, she feels lucky to have got a second chance after they recently met at a family party where they spent time together which ended in a passionate kiss.
Wills proposed the second time with the same solitaire diamond gold band which he had used the first time when he proposed on Christmas Eve in 1954, and the couple, who grew up in the same streets of Darlaston, West Midlands, got married in August.
