  Gemma Garvey's marriage has been over for ages. Gemma ended it and chose to be a single mother rather than continue the pretence that her marriage to work-obsessed David Hennessy was working. So why is she so upset when he marries bimbo Orla O'Neill? Is it that Orla's thin and gorgeous, whilst Gemma at 35 feels more like 55? Or that David's starting a new life, whilst she's facing middle age alone? For Orla being wife No. 2 isn't all she's imagined, always aware of how Gemma coped with a house, family and job, while she can't even cook dinner without setting the kitchen alight. To David, who has loved them both, there isn't a problem. But the trouble's just begun...
