In 1986, Cord Roberts (John Loprieno) and Tina Lord (Andrea Evans) wed for the first time on One Life To Live. After he presented her with a modest ring, Tina told him, "You might not believe this, but I don't care about the diamond. I just love you!" They were pronounced husband and wife by a justice of the peace, and gazed into one another's eyes while exchanging their traditional vows. "That's all the official stuff, Son," the officiant winked to Cord. "Kiss her!" "Yes, Sir," replied Cord, sweeping his new wife into a passionate embrace.

In 2008, Cord and Tina admitted they still loved each other on One Life To Live. It had been a long and winding road for the duo, who had multiple marriages and divorces under their belt — and even as Cord acknowledged how much he still adored his ex, he told her that they could not reunite and walked out on her, leaving Tina to collapse in sobs. Don't worry, though — it took a few more years, but the duo did eventually get their happy ending!
