...and apparently Leo gave her away. Awww. :)

Whilst I think her hubby's name is ridiculous, I do like Kate.

    Congrats to her. She still has faith in everlasting marriages and all, sweet!

    I do love her and Leo's friendship.

    Apparently he works for Branson part-time in 'astronaut experience'.

    Shining helmets probably. :D

    Well done Kate and all best wishes to a fabulous actress. I think Kate has a strong quirky side and hopefully they will have a great relationship. Wish you well.

    You read his name and you instantly think he has to be from some serious money if he has the balls to name himself that.

    Turns out he is. Of course Winslet wouldn't be seen with a "normal." :rolleyes:

    Why'd he name himself that? It makes him sound like he's obsessed with old Guy Ritchie films.

    Sounds like a bit of a pretentious twit to me.
    To many, it might have seemed a tad immature. But Eliza says it was not an impromptu decision, but one which had philosophical intentions.

    Me too. They are adorable. :)

    I love Kate and wish her all the best. I'll never be able to take anyone called Ned Rocknroll seriously though!

    :D... And even astronauts must need the odd cuppa like everyone else. Seriously: although Ned's name choice is rather unusual for someone over the age of 12, I hope this is third time lucky for KW.

    Works for his uncle, in the Virgin space flight company, the one planning to do the £100k trips to the edge of space. I supposed it keeps him occupied at least some of the time rather than just ask for an allowance.

    Agree with others won't last more than a year or so. Both have track records of very short previous marriages before moving on to someone else.

    Is this her third marriage now? I don't think she's even hit 40 yet.

    If I was only in my mid-30s with two failed marriages behind me, I don't think I'd be in a rush to get into another one. Hopefully it'll be third time lucky for her though. Very sweet that Leo gave her away too.

    Cheers for that. I do like Kate, though. She is a creature of wild enthusiasms but (awards speech apart) she seems so alive.
