Daily Mirror Blind Item

Which supposedly strait-laced couple, who harp on about the joys of domesticity, actually enjoy an open marriage - regularly bringing home new partners to experiment with?

    Ben Affleck & Jennifer Garner!

    Ok, I know, I know - this is the Daily Mirror so chances are the couple are British but I HAD to. It's a sick compulsion. Honestly. :-)

    Hmmm, anyone have an "in" with the Mirror so we could ask them to make their blinds a little bit more vague? :) If Ent's blinds are always "Affleck," the Mirror's are always "all of them."

    I'm wondering if the mis-spelling if the word "strait" in strait-laced is a clue?

    That's how it's spelt!

    Nigella Lawson and her husband - she's a domestic goddess! or Jamie and Jools Oliver or Gordon and Tania Ramsey????
    Maybe Richard & Judy?

    Hmmm . . . if they were talking American couples I would guess Will Smith and Jada Pinkett-Smith.

    Yes, PsychoticState, apparently Will and Jada have confirmed they have an open marriage. But I think this blind is probably a UK couple.

    This may be a few days old, but here is an article (from Australian Woman's Day?) on Will and Jada's open marriage.

    Yawn.

    I think its spelled "Straight-laced" - but it could be one of those words that either way is acceptable.

    Please forgive me for what I am about to do. I am a serious nerd and can't help myself.

    The word "strait" means narrow or restricted, or can refer to a narrow passage, as in:

    strait-laced

    straits of ____ (eg, straits of Hormuz)

    strait-jacket

    the expressions "straitened circumstances" and "dire straits"

    FYI. Sadly, I have no idea about the answer to this blind.

    I would say George Strait but doubt it very much even though he is/was known for getting involved with other women.

    I think that open marriages are pretty common nowadays...and I suspect that they always have been.

    It's just that now we have the dating sites and Craigslist and the like so we can see it for ourselves.

    I kinda like the idea myself...as long as both agree and maybe you need some rules, too.

    I'm a serious nerd too so...

    Merriam Webster:

    Main Entry: strait·laced
    Variant(s): or straight·laced \ˈstrāt-ˈlāst\
    Function: adjective
    Date: 1554

    Its an accepted variant :-P

    dianne p, thanks for the clue in. Because of your nerdiness, I learnt something!

    I'll will always use "strait" properly in future. It's kind of a neat word.
