Mary Kay Letourneau to Wed Former Student that Knocked Her Up
In the spirit of Valentine's Day, I thought I would share a true love story. This is as close to a fairy tale as their is in real life. This is the story of Mary Kay Letourneau and Vili Fualaau. It has been reported that these two will finally get married--Letourneau is now 43 and Fualaau is 22. But remember kids, age is just a number.
The true test of love is not how people react to things going good, but how people react to things going wrong. That is when the true character of a person comes out, and when the true strength of a relationship is demonstrated.
Letourneau went to jail for 7 1/2 years back in 1997 for raping the then 12-year-old Fualaau when she was 34. Their love is so strong that they were able to pick up right where they left off once she was released from the slammer.
At the time they met, Letourneau was married and had four children. But love knows no bounds. I think that is an important message that we all should be aware of today.
Letourneau and Fualaau have two girls, one six and one seven, and I could go on about how messed up those kids are going to be, but I won't because it is Valentine's Day and we should all focus on the great love story that this is.
