Torn apart by hate... brought back together by love 40 years later

Teenage sweethearts who split after parents disapproved of mixed-race romance get married...

Penny first fell for Mark when she was a 16-year-old private schoolgirl in the 1970s. + They met when he flew from the Bahamian capital, Nassau, to board at public school Trent College, near Nottingham...

The pair went on to study at separate universities in London where Penny's father paid Mark a visit. Claiming that he would have Mark’s scholarship revoked, he ordered him to end the relationship...

Mark had also faced similar threats from his own parents who did not want him courting a white girl. ‘I had to make the hardest decision of my life and I had to make it in isolation. It was heartbreaking,’ he said.

Devastated at the break-up, Penny quit college, later marrying and divorcing twice. Meanwhile Mark finished his degree and went on to manage hotels around the world. Although he also had a failed union, neither ever forgot their first love.

The important piece of information here I recognized is that BOTH of their parents were against it. Just goes to show that sometimes the feeling be mutual between black people and white people when it comes to IRRs. Sad truth. Happy they made it back to each other.
