A story went viral last year because it demonstrated how attitudes towards marriage and families have changed for the better.
When Bea and Emma got married, they walked through a park in Glasgow together holding hands to take photos. A little boy gasped when he saw them together and exclaimed, "Look at those princesses!"
The couple walked over to the boy to say hello and he asked if one of them had just got married. Emma said, "Yes, to each other." Emma says she could see the kid's "mind seemed blown in the most delightful way," and his mum then said, "Yes, two princesses can marry each other."
Emma said later, "We were both delighted that the boys mother didn't hesitate and just stepped right in and normalised same sex marriage. It was something we will never forget and it made our day a bit more magical."
Bea said, "Big appreciation for that boy's mum who straight up tells him, 'yeah, this is a thing that happens'.
When the story was shared on twitter it went viral. One comment was, "That lad will turn out alright."
