after the ceremony
❌ husband/wife
✅ official other half = Olaf
I've a friend who - when in an ornery mood - refers to his wife as his "ex girlfriend" and describes their wedding day as the day they broke up, since she lost the title of "girlfriend."
Was it this guy?
It was not, and I'm sorry to say I don't get the reference.
I've heard people say "my girlfriend at the time... now wife"
Indeed, I tend to go with "then-girlfriend"; if it's relevant to the conversation, I'll add "now wife." Occasionally I think I've said some form of "the woman who is now my wife."
