Taking a quick break from my job as a waitress, I cooed at the customer's baby I was holding in my arms. Then, spotting one of our regulars, Mark, I leaned over and asked him how his food was. “Oh, that's a cute baby,” he replied. “So cute!” I said. “I hope one day I'll have one!” Quickly, we got chatting, and before he left, he asked for my number. It was June 2013 and, aged 30, I'd been living in the United Arab Emirates for the past 18 months. Mark, 45, was just lovely, and after a whirlwind romance we tied the knot the following year, before moving out to Egypt where he worked as an engineer. Both of us were desperate to start a family and when we…

When I first met Andre at the clothes shop where we both worked, I thought he was arrogant and did my best to avoid him. But one day we got chatting about family. Andrew told me it was the most important thing to him and I realised I'd misjudged him. He was charming and friendly and not a bit boastful. So when he asked me out, I accepted. He then introduced me to his family who were lovely and welcoming. A year later, on Christmas Eve, he pulled out a platinum diamond ring and proposed. I was thrilled and found the perfect wedding venue in London, near to where we lived. It was expensive but we saved £30,000 and had a perfect big day. We were married by Andrew's stepfather,…

£50 Star letter Dream couple So many celebrity marriages end in divorce, so it is refreshing to read that Shirlie and Martin Kemp are still as happy now, 35 years after they first married (issue 26).
