Giuliani's first marriage was annulled after 14 yrs when he discovered that his wife was his cousin.

I kid you not.

On Monday, it was revealed that Giuliani’s third wife, Judith Nathan, filed for divorce after he allegedly began an affair with a woman named Maria Rosa Ryan. That probably shouldn’t come as much of a shock to anyone, least of all Nathan, who was that “other woman” when Giuliani held a press conference to announce that he would be leaving his second wife, Donna Hanover, to take up with his mistress. Hanover learned all of this for the first time as he explained the situation to the media. (Giuliani’s first marriage was annulled after 14 years when he discovered that his wife was his cousin.)

He only decided it was a problem when the relationship soured and he used that fact to get an annulment by the Catholic Church.

Redneck sightings are somewhat unusual that far north, but the authority on this condition should be allowed to weigh in at the earliest opportunity!
