A woman who is married to herself has insisted the process has made her more eligible because it has taught her how to deal with her own issues so a partner doesn t have to.
Sophie Tanner, 42, wed herself in a Brighton ceremony in 2015, five years after her last serious relationship, which came to an end when she discovered her boyfriend had cheated on her with one of her close friends.
She decided upon the wedding, which was a symbolic ritual, as a way to express love for herself and believes her relationships with friends and family have improved as a result.
