Irish incest couple expecting second baby

London, Sep 26 (ANI): The Irish brother and sister who knew that they were defying the law by joining together in matrimony are expecting their second baby.

In an exclusive interview with the Irish Mail on Sunday, the brother and sister speak openly about their wedding day and their future plans for their young family.

It is illegal for siblings to wed, and to protect themselves they have adopted the names of 'James' and 'Maura'.

And now the couple is leaving Ireland for a new life abroad in the hope of happy-ever-after ending that they yearn for.

"We have saved money and we have enough to keep us going for a while. We will be leaving soon, and we decided to get married because we are expecting our second child," the Daily Mail quoted Laura as saying.

"We will have freedom. I was shocked when I found out that I was expecting. This pregnancy wasn't planned and I do worry whether the baby will be okay. But then I remind myself that our first child is fine,' says Maura," she added. (ANI)
