'Baby Jessica,' Now 19, Reportedly Marries
Monday January 30, 2006 3:31 AM
MIDLAND, Texas (AP) - ``Baby Jessica,'' whose dramatic rescue from an abandoned Texas well was televised across the country 18 years ago, got married in a private ceremony, People magazine reported on its Web site.
Crews struggled for 58 hours to rescue Jessica McClure after she fell into an 8-inch-wide pipe in October 1987.
The celebrity magazine reported that McClure, now 19, married Daniel Morales, 32, at a rural church outside Midland on Saturday. A sign on the door instructed guests not to take pictures or video, the magazine said.
The two met at a day-care center where Morales' sister worked with McClure, according to the magazine.

"Geez...I'm 32 1/2 and I still can't get married." There's still time. I'm 62 and managed to survive 3 marriages.

My parents spent days glued to the TV watching Jessica being rescued from the well.
I wish they were here to see her get married.

It could be worse....it could be Former Texas Attorney General Dan Morales, but he'd be more like 50. Last I heard he was under indictment...did he ever go to the pokey?

She is 19 and he he's 32? Gosh, that girl keeps falling into trouble.Why don't we all just wish them well and not critique their private life.

When you are an adult does age really make a difference? This older man may treat her like a princess. Guys my own age always seemed so immature.
