can roy and hayley get married now?

[LostVoodoo]

just wondering, what with the adoption of the Civil Partnerships Act last month, does this mean that Roy and Hayley can get some legal recognition for their relationship? i'm a bit hazy of the details of their 'wedding' years ago, it's not recognised in the eyes of the law is it? just like Hayley is still a man by law?
i think they should do this as a storyline myself, it wouldn't have to be a big thing on the Street, just a private affair with close friends which wouldn't be as controversial as last time and would show how important the Civil Partnerships Act is.

good point.....although i dont think they will go through all that again

[xStephaniex]

wouldn't that technically may roy gay ? lol - sorrrry to hayley but come on ! she was a man once and had a sex change but technically she was a man ! so if the marry it makes roy gay ! and there aint nowt wrong with gays ! but you no its weird :p

Roy ought to plan this very carefully or he'll come an awful Cropper.

Still if they had a civil ceremony Hayley may well have to by a new anorak

[Richie_lecturer]

While Roy would have to buy his electro-semi-steam powered Almerian quasi-neutralised hypertherapic unicycle.

I expect Hayley will keep it simple for the wedding presents and buy Roy a 'Beware of Trains' sign to hang up in his cafe.

I was just thinking this the other day. Roy and Hayley are not officially married but they should be able to do it now

[dddMac1]

they should be able to get Married if they want to

[tina_freeze89]

I agree

[tina_freeze89]

I bet the writers didn't even think about that one - hope they read this forum and even have a blessing for Roy and Hayley or something instead of making a whole big fuss over it...but just for character purposes it would be good

WE LOVE ROY AND HAYLE!!! (Well i do anyway!)

[sbbb_odessa]

i wonder if corrie will do the first soap gay wedding i can just see sean crying now

[Chloe O'brien]

i don't think corrie would follow that storyline but you never know

[Penguin8191]

i agree that roy and hayley should be able to get married they are very sweet

[*-Rooney-*]

i dont think they should i think they should just keep it the way it is i mean it is working for them at the moment isnt it

[Cornishbabe]

I thought. that since haley had the sex change. She was officially a woman in the eyes of the law so it would have already been legal.

[Em]

Really? I didnt know it was legal after a sex change they could get married. I remember she is still a man on her passport

[Cornishbabe]

really shes still a man on her passport. I thought once you had the operation you could legal live a a woman and change your name and everything

[Em]

Yep there was an episode on it when she came back from Amsterdam she got stopped at customs, and felt very embarressed. (She obviously hadnt updated her passport!)

I dont think you can marry after a sex change operation, but you can change your name by deed poll.

[Cornishbabe]

oh. Thats a bit messed up then
