The Prison Wedding

The Untold

Available for over a year

Grace Dent tells the story of a white-collar-criminal's pregnant fiancée, trying to organise their prison wedding. When Veronica's partner - a successful businessman - was sent to prison for what is sometimes called a 'white-collar crime', she was pregnant with his child. On her first visit to him behind bars, he proposed. At a time of such uncertainty the prospect of marriage was something that kept them united. But they want the marriage to take place before the birth of the baby - just 9 weeks away. And they're not even sure if it's possible to get married in a prison at all. Producer: Georgia Catt.
