Woman considers 24th marriage

ANDERSON, Ind., Feb. 18 (UPI) -- An Indiana woman who has been single for 12 years after 23 marriages said she hasn't ruled out getting married again.

Linda Lou Taylor, 68, who holds a Guinness World Record as the most married woman in history, said two of her husbands turned out to be gay, two ended up homeless, a few cheated on her, one choked her and another padlocked the refrigerator shut, Gannett News Service reported Wednesday.

"It's easy to sum up," Taylor said of her oft-married life. "When I was younger I was just a snot-nosed kid but the neighborhood boys were all in love with me. They all wanted to marry me."

Taylor said that despite her 23 failed marriages and being single for the past dozen years, she has not ruled out future matrimony.

"I would get married again," she told Gannett, "because, you know, it gets lonely."
