Bin Laden's son weds grandmother from Cheshire
Bin Laden's son weds grandmother from Cheshire
Last updated at 17:48pm on 11th July 2007


To say they are an unlikely couple would be an understatement. She is a 51-year-old grandmother and parish councillor from a village in Cheshire, he is a 27-year-old Arab scrap metal dealer from Jeddah... who just happens to be the son of Osama bin Laden.

But now, after a holiday romance which started when he saw her riding a horse near the Great Pyramid in Egypt, Jane Felix-Browne and Omar Ossama bin Laden have married.

Mrs Felix-Browne, who has been married five times before, met Bin Laden in Egypt last September while she was undergoing treatment for multiple sclerosis.

Her new husband already has a wife and a two-year-old child - under Islamic law men are permitted to have four wives - while Mrs Felix-Browne has three adult sons and five grandchildren.

10. Amazing!
Nice photos. Too bad he's not in that black costume with the black turban and looking like he's from the past.

6. it's a visa scam
Edited on Wed Jul-11-07 02:59 PM by pitohui
rich young man courts lonely weak-minded older woman so he can enter the more desirable country more easily

she's having her mid life crisis and thinks he really gives two tiny shits about her

in this case because he's also rich he doesn't even have to give up his real family

Mrs Felix-Browne, who will not be using her husband's name, is also trying to get him a visa so he can visit Britain...


ugly business all around, my husband worked w. a man whose wife's brain was destroyed by a rare form of multiple sclerosis, it is sad to think of predators out there willing to jump on you when your ability to make good choices is going but there are a LOT of them

7. The woman looks to me
neither weak nor lonely. Do you know something we don't, or are you relying on stereotypes?

18. I have MS too,
and there's nothing wrong with my brain. A "rare form of multiple sclerosis"? Really. So, you're saying that a woman who marries a younger man must have something wrong with her brain and has lost the "ability to make good choices"?

You're able to come to an awful lot of conclusions with very little information. Congratulations.

15. Too much eye makeup, though.
Her eyes are prettier without all that goo, I'm sure. It's irritating the whites of her eyes (see the reddness in the corners?)

Just a stupid observation.

:hi:

19. The best looks that money can buy:
At 16 she was married in London in an Islamic ceremony to a student from Saudi Arabia who knew the bin Laden family. They had a son, now 33.

In 1978 she married again and had two sons, now 28 and 27, before the marriage collapsed 3½ years later. She married for a third time in 1985 and again in 1991.

She married Andy Yeomans, a fellow member of Moulton parish council, in 1996. The marriage ended in July last year and they divorced in February. She believes her sixth marriage is for life: “I think Omar is going to be faithful. This is the last one.” She confirmed that she had undergone plastic surgery, including a breast enhancement 13 years ago and larger implants inserted two years ago.

She said she has also had a facelift and a tummy tuck.
