Fact #116943
When:
Short story:
Roger Daltrey, vocalist of The Who, marries his second wife, Heather Taylor, at the registry office in Battle, East Sussex, England, UK, Europe. Steve Ellis, singer with the group Love Affair, is one of the witnesses. (Bizarrely, the couple had tried to get married six weeks earlier but, when they arrived at the registrar's office they learned that Daltrey's divorce from his previous wife had not yet been finalised).Full article:
Roger Daltrey : We lived together for four years before Heather decided that she'd like to have children. I wanted to do the right thing again by marrying her, but at the same time I still felt that I had so much more living to do. So I was honest and said, ‘Look, I'm in a rock band, I've got loads of other girlfriends and I'm not going to give any of them up. If you can put up with that, I'll happily get married.’
Incredibly, she said yes. So much importance is put on the sexual side of a relationship and the ability to be faithful. Heather and I will be together forever - no one else will ever get the key to my heart, but that's not to say I won't ever walk into a room and feel an instant attraction to someone else. But our marriage would survive, as it would if Heather was to have a dalliance. Over the past 35 years we've developed something a lot deeper than that - we get on fantastically well and she is the most extraordinary woman I know.
