What ever happened to good taste and dignity ?
They just got married, and the Local prints something like that.
In any event, whatever that they signed is their personal business. He is a big boy now and he knows exactly what he signs. He as well would not have to worry about a roof or the next meal were things to sour between them, yet raising that issue at this point is simply bad taste and form.
