Mitt Romny takes with him his wife Anne for election performances when he needs to show himself from the human side. The blond and devoted to her husband Anne copes with this task. She talks about their strong marriage over and over again, five children, 18 grandchildren and finally brings a moved audience to tears with a story about how Mitt helped her defeat two deadly diseases at once.
The couple Romny loves to talk about her love so much that she even shot an advertising video about her. He was twisted on American TV in 2002 - when Romny fought for the chair of Governor Massachusetts. Mitt and Ann met in elementary school. At first, Ann did not impress Mitt, and he threw pebbles at her at a meeting. Ten years later, Mitt noticed Anne at a party with a fan. He suddenly realized that in 10 years she was terribly prettier, went to her friend and said : “I live closer to her house than you, so I will take your girlfriend home. Good?”
Mitt and Ann began to meet, and at the age of 17, Ann accepted the Mormon faith, as she claims, without any pressure of Romny. A year later, they turned the two brothers Ann to their faith. It was more complicated with parents. Mom managed to persuade only on the deathbed. Dad, a convinced atheist, had to, according to rumors , turn into Mormon posthumously.
Ann made an offer at the graduation evening. Before the wedding, they waited two and a half years - while Romny was a missionary and turned the French to the Mormon faith. After this European business trip, they never parted. Romny says that Anne carries with him on all business trips, otherwise he cannot fall asleep. Romni calls his wife “Mitt-Stabilizer”.
Anne loves to repeat that she neglected her career for her husband and did not lose. During her studies, she took an acadmic vacation to give birth to two sons. After studying - gave birth to three more. Only five: Tegg, Matt, Josh, Ben and Creg. In the heyday of the American feminist movement, Anne recalls, she gave her life to the family. “Parents doubted my choice, peers too. But I was sure that I did everything right.” Anne nevertheless received a bachelor's degree in philology, however, she did not work out a day in her life.
The nail of the Ann speeches is a story that her husband has saved her life twice. In 1998, she was diagnosed with “multiple sclerosis”. Each movement was given to her with difficulty, Mitt did not let her hand out. He and her husband began to regularly make horseback riding that the doctor prescribed. Walks corrected her health. In 2008, she had already discovered breast cancer. Mitt still held her hand. Cancer was cured in the same year. “If he did not abandon me in difficult times, he will not abandon you,” she turns to the nation.
The story of their endless love helped Romnie to become a candidate from the Republicans in this presidential race. When he went to the nostril in the nostril with another candidate from the Republicans Nyut Gingrich, three times married and not too loyal husband, it was the 42-year marriage that helped Romny bypass the opponent.
In this race, Ann says that the nose does not stick to politics, because it is “too complicated game”. This time she was clearly defined the task - to tell “about the other side of Mitt, about which America does not know,” and not to deviate from the topic. Now, in an interview, she excitedly says that Romny was dragging from chocolate milk and sandwiches with peanut oil, and sings loudly during equestrian walks.
