Dont Tell The Bride

[Bazile]

Last night on BBC

What was wrong with the bride , which meant she needed walking sticks ?

The Radio Times website refers to 'a disability caused by pregnancy':

Reading through this lot

suggests 'foot drop' as a possibility:

The other thing it could be is an excess of loosened ligaments. Pregnancy hormones cause the joints at the front of the pelvis to loosen to facilitate birth. In some women this also affects the hip joints making them unstable. Sometimes the knees are affected as well. I had a work colleague who used to have to go onto crutches mid pregnancy and then progressed to a wheelchair for the last six weeks or so.
