A Salford woman gave up her old life to marry into one of the most high-profile traveller families in the country - and says 'what he says goes - I wouldn't have it any other way'.
Holly Joyce, 27, met traveller Dougie Joyce, 34, online in September 2019. They liked each other's pictures on Instagram and eventually started sending each other direct messages.
They met in March 2020 at a restaurant in Manchester, and after just a few hours, Dougie said he would 'marry her'. Dougie had had previous relationships with women outside the traveller community, but Holly had never dated a member of the community before.
Despite their family and friends having reservations, the couple hit it off and started dating in March 2020. READ MORE: Man splashes cash on huge billboard advert for psychic in Manchester with no contact information Holly fell pregnant with their daughter, Oceanna, now one, in November 2020.
