"I married her soul" - Burn victim's fiance explains why he didn't leave her after she suffered burns to 65% of her body

Australian ex-model Turia Pitt suffered burns to 65% of her body, lost her fingers and thumb on her right hand and spent five months in hospital after she was trapped by a grassfire in a 100 kilometre ultra-marathon in the remote area of Kimberley, Australia.

Her then boyfriend decided to quit his job to care for her recovery. The couple are now engaged and announced two weeks ago that they are expecting their first child!

Recently, in an interview for CNN they asked him:
"Did you at any moment think about leaving her and hiring someone to take care of her and moving on with your life?"
His reply touched the world:
"I married her soul, her character, and she's the only woman that will continue to fulfill my dreams."

      OK let's get something straight here. He said ""I married her soul, her character, and she's the only woman that will continue to fulfill my dreams."

      So aside beauty or pretty face, it's even more important you have Characters or manners.. For it's often said that beauty attracts men but character keeps them

      Obviously it's the character that keeps the young man
