While Carol McGiffin has been in a relationship with her boyfriend Mark Cassidy for the past 12 years, Carol was previously married to Chris Evans until 1993.
Chris Evans and Carol McGiffin were married for 6 years. They dated for 1 year after getting together in 1990 and married on 17th Sep 1991. 6 years later they divorced in 1998.
Christopher James Evans (born 1 April 1966) is an English television presenter, radio DJ, businessman, voice actor and producer for radio and television.
Mark Cassidy and Carol McGiffin have been engaged for 13 years. They started dating in 2007 and after 1 year were engaged in 2008.
Speaking about their relationship, Carol said: “No one knew we were going to do it, but we’ve basically spent the last year having separate celebrations with different friends and family, telling them all in person.”
The TV star added: “Now they all know, we’re ready for it to come out.”
Speaking of attempting to book the wedding previously, Carol explained how they had booked the registery office in London for January 2017, but her sister tragically passed away five days earlier.
After cancelling it, Mark and Carol re-booked but then changed their minds, saying: “It still didn’t feel right, it was too soon”.
The couple wed with no family and friends present, and celebrated by going out for dinner following the ceremony.
“Part of the reason it took us so long to get married was because every time we discussed having a traditional wedding day with guests, it ran out of control and became too much”, Carol explained.
