PR
who’s anyone a chance to cast a few pearls of wisdom before their fellow sufferers
about the nature of ‘the universal migraine’ – love. Francis Farnsworth is the case in

D
point. I’m sure the poor old fellow has a heart of gold but he really does talk a load of
R

U

even a grain of truth in rumors about her forthcoming engagement with football star
H

Nick Pérez. Nevertheless, I’m sure it is only a question of time before we see Tania and
Nick on the cover of ‘Hi There!’ celebrating ‘the wedding of the century’. If marrying
C

someone like Tania is what happens to you if you’re incredibly successful, like Pérez
G

undoubtedly is, I shudder thinking what the price of failure might be!
