The First Gay Divorce

One of the first same-sex couples to tie the knot have separated and will make British legal history when they divorce.

Darryl Bullock, 42, and Mark Godfrey, 32, were one of the first to wed when new 'gay marriage' laws came in last year.

But Darryl has revealed the relationship had faded and the pair intend to annul their marriage as soon as is legally possible after December 21.

Darryl said: "We were really proud to be one of the first couples to have the service and we had a great six months but then things went wrong.

"I suppose we were part of history and I have got lots of press cuttings from that day but we didn't do it to make the news or just to be first.

"We were completely committed but things change in any relationship. We are lucky that there is no property or kids involved but we have both moved on now in our own way."
