Isha Sesay of CNN weds Leif Coorlim of CNN

CNN anchor/correspondent Isha Sesay married her man Leif Coorlim, who is also a CNN staff, at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Atlanta Georgia yesterday Sunday August 18th.
"Our day exceeded my wildest dreams," Sesay tells People. "It was magical. When I saw Leif standing at the end of the aisle, I felt as if my heart would explode. I married the man of my dreams in front of the people we care about the most. And then we partied the night away."
Isha, 37 (Sierre Leonean ), and Leif, 34 (American), who is the executive editor of The CNN Freedom Project, met in 2008. Happy married life to them.

  6. Linda,
    Pls vet your comments.There is somebody,I believe a guy who comments on your blog with the photo of a penis and hand besides his comments.

    This is offensive and beside children could be hanging around parents computers.

    Pls let's keep things classy.


    Thanks

    Anyway, finding true love should not rely on race. There are too many great men out there for me to only want a black man.. Sorry.

  66. waoh, the babe that makes me stay glued to CNN, she doesn't look her age at all, well, happy married life .....so says http://pascalegeonu.blogspot.com/

  67. She could have looked a little further down the line. This marriage smacks of a woman who is frustrated and desperate. She has a great job that pays her tons of money, but she works too many hours and hardly has time to socialize. What does she do? She marries the guy in the next cubicle. What happens when the job is not there anymore. CNN has a reputation of rotating out their newscasters as they get older. The television industry in America thrives on youthfulness and beauty. They recently reshuffled their newscasters line-up and quite a few of their veteran news reporters were let go (Soledad O'Brien, Ali Velshi and others). What I am trying to say is by the time she is 40, she probably won't be in that job anymore. They'll find a younger person to take her place. If she married the right person, it wouldn't matter. However, if she hurriedly married somebody because she doesn't have time to date outside of her work, she'll have regrets.

    I think she could have cast her net a little further outside of her job. She reminds me of Simon Cowell, who has been in the news lately for impregnating his friends wife. Before that, he was dating his make-up artist.

  72. @ anonymous 7:32pm, dat profile pic is not penis with hand holding it. its a baby's hand hold the thumb of a matured hand. its just a make-believe pic. u should know prince charming and his naughty pranks. pls dont be paranoid wit ur holier dan thou attitude!

    ReplyDelete
  73. Dear Linda i have never posted on this blog,but i am an ardent viewer,i love what you are doing,so keep it up.prince charming's display picture is highly offensive and obscene,i find it replusive.it is also not teenage friendly and discourages mature people/persons from commenting.As much as we advocate freedom of speech, this is a social platform,where we discuss moral and social decadence in the country.this kind of picture encourages it,so please can the person be civil, matured and decent enough to remove it.thank you.

    ReplyDelete
  74. LOL but haven't you guys realised by now that Prince Charming's photo is not of a penis but of a hand holding a thumb?!It's one of those photos designed to make people like you think the worst. So now who has a gutter mind? PS: I am NOT prince charming, whether or not you believe it LMAO Look closer please and stop getting hypertension for nothing

  76. Read and be armed with information before blotting out rubbish. Y are we so hateful? She doesn't give two cents what u think and doesn't even know if u exist. Who u find love with,u marry. B u black,white,hispanic,asian,wateva. @JJ, before u scribbled ur rubbish didn't u read that they have been dating since 2008? If ur an ardent CNN watcher and u watch her programs, u wud have noticed when she began wearing an engagement ring.Its been a year plus. Not like what we do here,get engaged today, get married in 3mths. she is just 3yrs older than him and the guy didn't tell u that he didn't know about the age difference after he approached her 5 yrs.A woman being older than her husband isn't a new thing. If u check history, bk to the 15th century u will find wives older than their husbands.Do u know that MLK(Martin Luther King, for those who don't know what the letters stand for) was younger than his wife Coretta King? Do u know that Duchess Katherine is 6mths older than Prince William? Do u know that the Founder of EBONY MAGAZINE John .H. Johnson was younger than his wife Eunice Johnson,the Co-Founder and they were married for more than 63 yrs and built an empire 2geda. Where is it cast in stone that a woman must marry a man older than her? There are a lot of gr8 men in history whose wives were older than them. What has age got to do with anytin? It doesn't bring more wisdom and maturity i must say. They dated for 5yrs b4 tying the knot so i don't understand your talk about her rushing to get married. They found each other,fell in love and that's the end of it. Please people think hard and well before u pen down some things, it may sound nice in your head but when put down on paper u look so shallow and empty i am sorry to say. Common sense truly isnt common at all. If u dont have anytin nice to say about anytin, then dont say anytin at all. She is a Sierra Leonean, who was born and raised in the UK but now lives and works in the US.
