Despite being in love and ready to commit, they both felt that having a prenup was the rational thing to do when starting a marriage.
“You approach it with love and hope for the future,” Olivia explains. “But also realism.”
They’re not alone. Prenuptial agreements, once the preserve of Hollywood celebrities and the super-rich, are on the rise among “normal” people as well, with legal and marriage experts reporting that numbers have increased dramatically in recent years; according to several polls, one in every five weddings in the UK now includes some form of legal agreement.
Olivia and Leo became engaged last year after meeting through a dating service.
