EDITORS COMMENTS
In this enchanting photograph from The Bystander, published in September 1940, Hollywood actor David Niven, now Captain David Niven of the Rifle Brigade, is seen with his newlywed wife, Primula Rollo. The image captures the couple's radiant joy and the romantic spirit of the moment as they embark on their married life together amidst the backdrop of World War II. David Niven, a renowned British actor known for his charm and wit, had enlisted in the British Army in 1939, leaving his successful film career behind to serve his country. Primula Rollo, a dedicated W.A.A.F. officer, had been working tirelessly to support the war effort on the home front. Their paths crossed during this time, and they fell deeply in love. Their wedding took place in a quiet, intimate ceremony, surrounded by close friends and family. The joyous occasion was a welcome respite from the harsh realities of war, offering a glimmer of hope and happiness to those who witnessed it. In this photograph, David Niven and Primula Rollo are pictured in elegant attire, with the Captain in his military uniform and Primula wearing a stunning bridal gown. Their eyes are filled with love and adoration as they gaze into each other's eyes, a testament to their deep connection. The image is a poignant reminder of the power of love and the enduring human spirit, even in the most challenging of times. It stands as a beautiful testament to the love story of David Niven and Primula Rollo, two individuals who found each other amidst the chaos of war and built a life filled with happiness and companionship.
