George and Olivia

get married!



George, Dhani and Olivia



On this day in music history: September 2, 1978 - George Harrison marries Olivia Trinidad Arias in a civil ceremony at the Henley-On-Thames Register Office in Henley-On-Thames, South Oxfordshire, UK. It is the second marriage for the former Beatles guitarist, having been married previously to model and actress Pattie Boyd from 1966 to 1974. Harrison meets Arias in 1974 while she is working as a secretary for his then label A&M Records. Shortly after, the two become friends and begin dating. The couple marry one month and a day after the birth of their only son Dhani (born on August 1, 1978). They remain happily married for twenty three years until Harrison’s death on November 29, 2001.

We miss George and hope Olivia and Dhani are well and happy somewhere , wherever they are . . .  . .
