Can I marry my cousin in Britain?
AROUND the world, more than 10 percent of marriages are between cousins.
In Britain there is no legal barrier to a relationship between two cousins.
That means that if you fall in love with your aunts and uncles’ children, there’s nothing stopping you from eventually tying the knot.
If you are over 18 years old, you can do this without the consent of your legal guardian or parent.
Marriages between cousins were once very common in Europe, especially among the elite.

“I don’t know what to think anymore. He wants to visit me and see me and says he misses me already, and the whole thing just makes me feel so dirty.”
