I'm happy to report that you don't need to share a lot of specific interests or pastimes to have a long happy #marriage. My wife and I enjoy books, walks, museums, restaurants, but otherwise we pretty much ignore each other's favourite activities.

She spends huge time on local politics, the learn-to-swim association and the church choir, while I prep and play tabletop games, go to metal gigs and film festivals, and hunt for geocaches.

We seem to have entered the #era of #celebrity #marriage as #performance #art.

I think it started with Jon Richardson though I may have missed earlier iterations.

For a while we've had an assortment of farming couples including Jeremy Clarkson.

Now they're graduating to using marriage to revive moribund careers such as the case with Noel Edmonds.

It's no wonder #genz has a jaundiced outlook. It didn't happen in a vacuum.
