Dear LFTP: widow discovers her late husband's hidden prior marriage

• Should I ask my late husband's family about the previous marriage he kept secret, or let it go and be grateful for our 27 years together?

A host reads a Dear LFTP letter: the writer's husband recently died and among his papers she found evidence of an earlier marriage he never mentioned; they were married 27 years; both were widowed when they met. The hosts debate whether she should ask his family - noting the whole family seemingly kept it secret too, and that his being a widower rules out divorce/annulment theories. Mike's advice: it depends entirely on her heart and what she would regret not knowing ('if I don't find out, I won't regret it, then skip it'). The secular answer is read (the first marriage may have been divorced/annulled; she is entitled to know); the hosts dismiss it as legalistic and wrong on the facts.
