I agree. I’d bet the farm that there will be a follow-up, “where is he now?” article a year from now where he reveals that he is broke and the new wife left him.

I see gay marriage is legal in Britain, because clearly Samantha started out as Sam.

I wonder if it is still Sam. Straight guy, but willing to put on a bathing suit for $2 million. Like that story awhile ago where the guy realized a year after they were married - that he had married another guy - not a woman like he had thought. (How does THAT happen!?)
