Pop mama-to-be Britney Spears may be committing bigamy, according to ex-Blue Peter presenter, Richard Bacon.
According to the BBC, the presenter has claimed he is married to the star, after a tongue-in-cheek ceremony in 2002. During a hotel interview for the now-defunct Big Breakfast show for Channel 4 shortly after her separation from Justin Timberlake, Bacon jokingly went down on one knee to ask for the star's hand in marriage, to which she replied 'yes'. A vicar then pronounced the pair married, and they signed a marriage certificate.
Despite the certificate being destroyed by a security guard, the marriage could still be legally binding, making a mockery of her union to dancer Kevin Federline.
Representatives for the star, who was once married in Las Vegas for 55 hours to a childhood friend, have rubbished the idea: «Sorry to break Richard's heart, but Britney Spears and Kevin Federline's marriage is legally binding, and they are expecting their first child together." |
