Convicted Ex-Teacher to Marry Former Pupil
Mary Kay Letourneau plans to marry her former sixth-grade pupil with whom she had two children, according to friends.
Letourneau, 43, and Vili Fualaau, 22, set a wedding date of April 16, according to their bridal registry at a Seattle department store. Letourneau served 7 1/2 years on a 1997 conviction for raping Fualaau, who has often said that he hoped to marry her.
“It’s been long overdue,” Noel Soriano, a friend of the couple, told the Seattle Post-Intelligencer. “It’s going to be fabulous, seeing them get hitched finally.”
