Many people have advised them that the marriage should be terminated but the couple said they are resolute.
Celina insisted that the marriage would continue because they have heavily invested in it for 17 years.
She said:
"Let me divorce him because we didn't know. Let me just tell our kids their parents are not together anymore because of other people's opinions. No thank you we will just be staying cousins, spouses and lovers forever. Now go throw up in your mouth some more."
