An Irish woman who says she married a 300-year-old pirate ghost apparently got spooked and has left the marriage. “So I feel it’s time to let everyone know that my marriage is over,” Amanda Sparrow Teague wrote on social media this week. “Growing up in Ireland in my era, you were taught that if a man bedded you, he should wed you,” Teague told People.com. It’s worth noting that, in the “Pirates of the Caribbean” franchise, the character of Edward Teague (played by guitarist Keith Richards in “Dead Men Tell No Tales”) is the father of the character Jack Sparrow, whose full name would be ... Jack Teague. Newsweek reports it was unable to verify the existence of a person so named when it looked in January.
