I think I am right in saying that 'married' couples statisticaly are more likely to put more effort into and work through their relationship problems than unmarrieds.....also a lot of unmarried couples are unmarried because one of them refuses to make the commitment and not because the agreement is mutual. |

I have to confess that it doesn't bother me at all whether they're married or not; I'd say as long as they're committed to eachother, great. For example, Gene Simmons and his lady? They've never married, but have two grown-up children, and they're still very much together. My greater concern would be like someone else's earlier on (sorry, forgot who said it!), i.e. if she smoked and drank alcohol etc. during the pregnancy. x |

Getting married first didn't do Britney or Sir Paul much good did it? Or the Royal Family come to that! Charlotte seems to be taking a really responsible attitude - she has given up drinking and smoking and is eating well - unlike a lot of celebs. You are either good parents or not ... being married doesn't change your abilities on that score. Most of us single parents had no intention of being so when we decided to have children - that doesn't make us bad parents or bad role models. I'd rather my daughter had CC as a role model than Posh or Kate Moss or Britney or Jordan. |

Maz, well said, I don't think CC is a bad role model, I happen to think that despite her money and all the publicity good and bad over the years, she seems very balanced and down to earth. I think she really loves Gavin and is often quoted as hankering after an engagement ring, I would imagine this little one is a bit of a mistake but she is happy with the situation and he will go along with it cos he loves her. At least no-one can say she did it to get a council house lol Good luck to her, the baby will want for nothing and I am sure will be very well loved, and at the end of the day, so long as that little mite is warm, fed and loved, why should we worry whether it's parents have a piece of paper to make them stay together. Good luck to them all. Liz |
