We got married for a number of reasons;  she left home, and many people said she had made the greatest mistake of her life; she got pregnant; and for us to have a certain status for our child; documentation and so on. There were so many reasons to get married.”“Now we are great friends, but probably if we had not gotten married, we probably would have still been together.”
