Rock legend, 63, to become a dad again as wife, 38, is pregnant with their first baby
A British rock star is set to become a dad again as his wife revealed she is pregnant and is expecting their first child together after tying the knot in 2020 A British rock legend is ready to became a dad for the third time. Roland Orzabal's younger wife Emily Rath Orzabal confirmed she is pregnant. It will be the first child for the Tears for Fears star, 63, and his photographer wife, 38. He also shares two kids, Pascal and Raoul, from his previous marriage to Caroline, who died in 2017 aged 54. The Shout star Roland's new wife revealed the exciting news on social media, sharing a sweet Instagram post with her followers. The image showed Emily cradling her baby bump while wearing a hooped dress top. She gazed down at her belly with a loving stare in the snap. She simply captioned the upload with a red heart emoji. The pair were met with an influx of well wishes in the comments section of the post. One user gushed: "The glow and beauty of being a mother... Aww, congratulations to you both." Another said: "Hallelujah, you've never looked more beautiful Bless you for sharing with us for we do truly care and are beyond excited for the family. Blessings." Roland and Emily quietly wed in 2020. They exchanged their vows on top of Aspen Mountain in Colorado. It came after the Covid-19 pandemic forced them to cancel their original wedding plans. At the time, Emily shared: 'We had to postpone our original wedding date in September 2020 because of Covid. I felt as all corona brides have been feeling: angry, sad, gypped, and confused as to when we should have a wedding. 'Roland and I were in the States for work. We desperately wanted to get married, even just legally, and so to honour our original date, we secretly eloped, just the two of us, atop a mountain in Aspen. It was the most magical moment of my life. 'It breaks my heart that my family could not be there to see it, but no one wanted to risk their safety. Two weddings was never my dream, but we adapted, separating the legal wedding from the celebratory wedding to come.' She went on to add: 'In September we were able to use the autumnal flowers we'd originally wanted, and next year we can have all of the spring flowers! We got married at 11,212 ft high on Aspen Mountain, whereas next year will be inside an incredible venue." Emily also gushed over how happy she had been in the months following the intimate ceremony. "Six months into marriage, I am so happy," she said. "And cannot wait to marry Roland again next year, with all of our favourite people around us. We've been planning that one for a very very long time, so it should be extraordinary!' The pair did celebrate with a bigger wedding the following year. They were surrounded by loved ones at Blenheim Palace in Oxfordshire for take two.

Create Account Donald Trump, a reality star, felon and who knows what else, is president of the U.S. and in the lyrics of that 1980's Tears for Fears song would now like to rule the world or at least be awarded the Nobel Peace prize. While I don't necessarily disagree with his actions, his immature bragging only cements the views of the enemies of the U.S. about Americans. At 86 years old, Iran's current Ayatollah should not be concerned for his life nor for the continuance of radical Islamic law in Iran. There will be another radical Ayatollah to take over. Most Iranians who I've met have been intelligent, open-minded people with a sense of humour and nothing like the medieval rulers of their country. Unfortunately, evil ideals attract the more basic and discontented — Hamas, Hezbollah, the Houthis, etc. Iran's government cares little for its citizens and even less for the Infidels. We in the free world should be diligent as this chapter is not over. Israelis are experts in survival as they have been doing it for millennia and will not be lulled into a state of relaxation. For the West, however, with its naive and ill-informed woke, the challenge is greater. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. Allan Leggate Toronto (Definitely a time of turmoil that Trump's second presidency has landed in) COURTING DISASTER Our entire court system needs an overhaul. If you know you will be convicted of a crime, you get as many continuances as you can and do as much pre-trial time as possible. If it takes two years to get to trial, that is six years of time served. Judges allow this. Stop the continuances and adjournments. Force speedy trials and stop rewarding people for clogging up the system. A continuance should be a rare thing, not an automatic yes.
