Emma refuses to ‘let divorce happen’

Emma explained: “The wedding isn’t the destination, it’s the lasting part that is. As we’ve gotten older and more mature and settled, we have realised that as long as we communicate, we can avoid sitting on resentments or creating the kind of environment that leads to getting divorced.”

She added: “I won’t allow that to happen to us – and I won’t let him do it either!”

“But it’s only been beneficial and it’s only been another little core thing that we do. It’s awesome.”
