Singer Divorces ‘Devilishly Handsome' Ghost Of A Victorian Soldier After Less Than A Year
A singer who married what she claims was the ghost of a Victorian soldier has said they are divorced less than a year later.
The songwriter and performer, who goes only by the name Brocarde, said she first met "dev- ilishly handsome" Edwardo when he
"burst" into her bedroom "one dark and stormy night".
The 40-year-old, from Oxfordshire, said long-haired Edwardo immedi- ately announced his love for her and later began confiding in her.
Their spirited love affair hit the headlines when
Brocarde announced they were to marry in a chapel on Halloween in 2022.
Brocarde posted a video of the ceremony on Instagram where she was seen wearing all black with an empty space where invisible Edwardo was said to have
been standing.
However, shortly after they mar- ried, Brocarde said she was angry that her husband got too drunk on their honeymoon in Barry Island, Wales.
Brocarde added that Edwardo would become
increasingly pos- sessive and would switch between being "warm and intense" and threatening, Wales Online reports.
She said: "After our initial meeting Edwardo slowly revealed more about himself to me.
"I saw his images as a Victorian solider, he was always in his uni- form, even on our wedding day, his face is devilishly handsome, shoul- der length unruly hair, he looks lived in, well worn, troubled almost, there's a pain attached to his being."
The songwriter, poet and per- former also said she tired of Edwardo's "unset- tling fascination" with Marilyn Monroe.
Brocarde claims the soldier's crush
on the late iconic Hollywood actress began on their wedding day when he spotted the spirit of Monroe in the chapel.
She claims the soldier would dis- appear for days before returning smelling of Chanel No.5 - the fragrance which had been Monroe's favourite perfume.
The singer claims setting bound- aries infuriated Edwardo and he allegedly started to haunt her with the sound of a screaming baby.
Brocarde says she returned to the chapel where they married in order to exorcise him from her mind.
She announced the split in her song Just Another Anthem.
