All hail the longevity of interracial relationships between Black Women and White Men!

A Sweet Spot Called Longevity

Research indicates BW/WM interracial relationships enjoy a sweet spot called longevity.

That’s right – when it comes to interracial marriages, BW/WM combinations last longer.

A Case In Point

We have many examples of friends of The Swirl World we can point to (our friends Karla and Don immediately come to mind).

So, in celebration of the longevity of marriage, we salute our featured couple, Bryan and April French.

“Happy Anniversary!”

October 15 marked Bryan and April’s 24^th wedding anniversary.

April & Bryan French, October 15, 1992

April and Bryan have 3 sons who are just as gorgeous as they are:

April and Bryan’s beautiful 2-month old granddaughter is truly a living doll!

April’s Secret Sauce

I recently had an opportunity to chat with April about spending 24 years with the love of her life. She told me about the secret sauce making her marriage successful.

Enjoy!
