Whose marriage will last longer?

accreditation
They say third time's a charm, but we all know that in the world of soaps, no marriage is ever cast in stone or sprinkled with happily ever after dust. We're actually not quite sure why Bridget is choosing to remarry Nick for the third time considering the fact that he:

a) Slept with her mother; and
b) Slept with Katie, her aunt. (These people sure like to keep it in the family, don't they?)

But, we'll allow her to believe that this time may just be different, because soapies are, after all, all about having a keen sense of the fantastical.
 
Then, there's Jackie and Owen.

It's rather obvious to us why Jackie would want Owen, but Owen feeling the same way about Jackie? Baffling and highly unlikely if you ask us.

For one, the woman is Nick's mother, and therefore, by default, old enough to be his own Mother. Of course, we think Jackie has far more to lose, considering that Nick despises Owen and thinks his motives for marrying Jackie are less than pure. And surely, no man is worth losing the love and respect of your son?

We don't either of these marriages will last, but we do know that one couple's marriage will probably last longer.

The question is:  Which couple's marriage do you think will last longer?
