He Was With His Fiancée When A Vacation Turned Into A Nightmare. He Told Her ‘I Love You, Just Go’

If it had not been for the bravery of her fiancé, Saera Wilson may have been one of the more than 70 victims of an attack on a hotel in Tunisia.

As the Daily Mail reports, 37 people were killed and 36 wounded when extremists attacked a resort area in Sousse, opening fire at a beach near the Bellevue Hotel.

Wilson was on vacation with her fiancé, Matthew James, and the two were sunbathing when the shooting began.

Wilson says that James put his body between her and the gunmen, shielding her from harm while taking three bullets in the stomach. Even while injured and bleeding, James told Wilson to run for it.

“He told me: ‘I love you babe. But just go – tell our children that their daddy loves them,’” Wilson said.

Wilson and James have two children, six-year-old, Tegan, and 14-month-old, Kaden, whom they had left with family in Wales during their break in Tunisia.

He is, after all, her fiancé. That implies an imminent marriage to me. As soon as the tubes come out of him, at least.

The article says they plan to marry in 2017. Why rush, after all, just because they were nearly killed.

These people probably didn’t have married parents, so they honestly don’t think their children need married parents.

My first sentence was sarcasm. The second line was simply an observation. Also, she probably gets benefits as an unmarried mother that she wouldn’t if they were married, which helps them to afford vacations to Tunisia.

Thank you.... I feel like I have gone to a LIBERAL web-site where everyone has lost their bearings. Or maybe all these people are in the same predicament or their kids have kids and aren’t married. I, too, have some of that in my family, but it doesn’t change my mind about right and wrong.

Retread your original post, then try to tell me with a straight face you didn’t mean what you wrote. Oh, and please drop the shrill, hysterical tone.

Jeez some of you people need to lighten up. So what if he wasn't married yet. He took a bullet for her, several apparently. At least when the time came to choose between life and death he manned up and was counted. I'd like to see some of those here who are lambasting them for not being married do at least as well and not pee their pants and run off to leave her to her fate.

Great....but will he marry the MOTHER of his TWO CHILDREN??? OMG!! What has happened to COMMON SENSE and COMMON DECENCY????

Lets see. He just took three bullets in the stomach in a terrorist attack to protect his fiancee and told her to save herself and the children. But you think a marriage license is a better measure of his commitment? Eh? I think he just showed his true devotion while literally under fire, and I do mean literally.

You didn’t drop the tone, and I’m guessing you’ve never traveled outside the county where you were born—am I right?

Why rush things? If they wait a few more years, their daughter will be old enough to be her mom’s maid of honor.
