Summary: Bridegroom Leaves Wife For Best Man (Press, 25 June 1987)

In a shocking turn of events just nine days after their wedding, a Welsh bridegroom named Colin Williams, aged 25, abandoned his bride, Melanie, to pursue a relationship with his best man, Paul Richards, who is 21 years old and works as a health worker. The couple revealed to the Sun newspaper that they had developed romantic feelings for each other weeks before Colin's marriage to Melanie, but had attempted to suppress their emotions. Richards expressed that they both sensed a strong connection when they first met, indicating that their bond could not be denied despite their efforts to cool their relationship leading up to the wedding. Colin admitted that he realised he had made a grave mistake, declaring that his true feelings were for Paul rather than Melanie. He also mentioned that it was Melanie who introduced him to Paul initially, suggesting that she was aware of Colin's feelings before their marriage took place. Following the abrupt end of their union, Colin has moved in with Paul in Cardiff, leaving Melanie heartbroken.
