Splited Couple Married After 40 Years

A couple who were split up by their parents more than 40 years ago are to finally marry.
Chester Locke was banned from seeing Christine Orchard, from Taunton when she became pregnant at 16. Her parents helped raise her daughter Tracy.


But Tracy decided to track down her natural father recently and her parents romance started again, reports the BBC.


Tracy said: "My intention at first was to get him to meet his grandchildren and the great grandchild that was on the way.


"It was never to get them back together. When they did I was shocked but it was lovely.
"It's nice to see them happy where they should probably have been 40 years ago."
Christine added: "Being an unmarried mother back in the 60s wasn't good.


"My parents decided they would bring the baby up and I had to sever all contact with Chester. That was part and parcel of them bringing up the baby."


The couple will marry later this year.
