I know a woman whose husband was killedin a tragic work accident. They had two little ones when he died. His older brother started helping her with house stuff, mowing, maintenance, doing stuff with the kids. Eventually, they married and have been together over 40 years. I am good friends with the sister of the brothers and she told me no one in the family batted an eye when told. They knew theirbrother would be at peace that his wife and children would be taken care of.

There are many things in this world that people have decided are wrong or immoral or that God has told us are immoral, but this marriage between these two is not one of them. Once her husband passed away, she was the wife of no one. There is nothing anywhere that says that this widow can't marry her husband's brother, except for minds that dream up problems.

Everybody saying it's wrong are so out of touch. This is actually biblical. -If brethren dwell together, and one of them die, and have no child, the wife of the dead shall not marry without unto a stranger: her husband's brother shall go in unto her, and take her to him to wife, and perform the duty of an husband's brother unto her.

The only weird thing to me is the brother saying to his nephew -I know I-m your uncle but I-d love you to call me dad- I think it-s a leading question for a young grieving child and they shouldn-t be encouraged to say it unless they naturally move towards it the self. Just feels like they-re edging out the memory of his real dad-

American ethics and values have fallen so low that I'm not surprised. They have new dilemma now; their son could look at his sister in confusion thinking -Well, is she really my sister! - We love each other so its ok and who determines where is the line drawn! Come on horomones, give me the answer! Duncle would know what to do!

In Biblical times, that-s how they did it. Brothers would marry the windows of their brothers. Or the closest relative if a brother wasn-t available. It was family responsibility to take care of their brother-s family. Not saying it should be like that now-but it-s not weird. Especially considering the whole trauma bond thing.

All that matters is that Kate and Rory are happy, Rory may be technically Camden's uncle but i'm just happy that he has a dad now! I know that Aaron would be pissed but he's not around. Rory is now Cam's dad and Rory III is now his brother. Presley and Maddilyn are already Camden's sisters because Kaitlyn is their mom.

My mom died when I was 12. her 12 yr long term bf immediately began seeing her best friend. Her daughter and I too, were bestfriends. We clashed a bit, but after a year, I did put it behind me. They lasted about 5 years. It was odd, but looking back, I felt betrayed, but more understanding in a way too. now that I'm an adult.

Idk. there's 47 billion people on this planet. I just I can't get on board. Just like the mom said, the brother would NOT have liked it. I would not be able to do that. Id feel waayyy too horrible. Especially for my son. I just I couldn't. But it's not me so to each their own but it's still just not right.

I don't think my husband would mind the thought of me marrying one of his family members if something happened to him since it would mean his family was together and taken care of. It helps that he has a wonderful trusting relationship with his whole family. It's strange to me that people find it so weird.

This happened in my family: when my grandmother-s mummy died, Great Grandpa married her sister (also widowed) and they raised the cousins together as siblings. Context - south east England in the 1920s. As many other commenters have said, it-s both okay and with long precedent.

I honestly think this situation worked out well for everyone. It's not like she was unfaithful with the brother while Aaron was alive. The mother seems like a really sweet lady, I felt so sorry for her when she cried it made me tear up. I wish them all the best-

This is actually biblical. I do support this 100%. This isn't sick like siblings. it isn't dirty like the first brother is still alive. the brother passed away. his brother stepped up and loves and protects the widow and son. It's a beautiful selfless thing.

What a wonderful story of love lost and then found! People who don't like this can f---k off. Similar relationships happened after 911 in the US. Many people found love with a family member or friend of the one they had lost when the towers collapsed.

I think it's freaken awesome. You can't help who you fall for and your kids are loved and taken care of. I would hope your brother would be grateful that you both have done so well together and for looking out for his son. Wishing you all the best. -

You know, technically this is not wrong, her husband passed away so it-s ok. You know in certain cultures when a husband passed away the brother of the husband can marry the wife of the family chooses to keep the wife in the family

Nah bro. You can pick a bunch of men out there but you go for his family, he's brother. Idc what anyone says that's crossing the line. -Well the kids look happy- yeah they would be happy with another loving man around too. Lol.

In my culture-- this isn't an unusual event, but an expected obligation of the surviving brother. I like this story because they chose each other, instead of being forced into an unwanted obligation. I dont see anything wrong

People have done this for thousands of years and in many cultures. It's not bad. I think that you can't control who you fall in love with. As long as they treat each other well, that's all that should matter.

I am glad they both found love and who cares if Aaron and Roy were brothers. They were not together when they got together so it kinda doesn't matter. Happy that Roy stepped in to be a dad to his nephew

I knew a guy whose wife died of cancer. He ended up marrying her best friend six months later. It was with the wishes of his deceased wife before she died. They have been together for now for 30 years.

I'm sure his brother probably wouldn't be his first choice, but I'm also sure Aaron appreciates that his son is being raised the way he wanted him to be raised.

This was very common practice to do many years ago before cars and phones. The brother was always close by and easy access.
