The age of consent in the UK is (or was when I was there) 16. Would they separate a UK couple?
In New Hampshire, girls can get married as young as 13 and boys at 14, with parental consent. In fact, many states allow marriage at 14 (over even younger) if the girl is pregnant. West Virginia doesn’t even have a minimum age as long as the parents and court approve. As repulsive as it may seem, it’s a fact.
