布萊爾求婚史大曝光!

Former British prime minister Tony Blair proposed to his now wife Cherie while she was cleaning the toilet during a holiday in Italy, according to a new television documentary.

Former British prime minister Tony Blair proposed to his now wife Cherie while she was cleaning the toilet during a holiday in Italy, according to a new television documentary.

Cherie Blair told BBC television that the future prime minister popped the question in 1979 as she was tidying a villa in Tuscany.

"I'd cleaned the toilet and he suddenly announced when I was on my knees that maybe we should get married," the human rights lawyer told the programme "The Real Cherie Blair," which is to be broadcast Wednesday.

"So you agreed to marry him while you were cleaning the toilet?" the interviewer asked.

"Yes, lovely. It was terribly romantic!" she said.

The programme also reveals that Blair calls his wife "the bolshie Scouser," a reference to her Liverpool, north-west England roots and often outspoken views.

The Blairs later went on to have four children, including son Leo in 2000 who was the first child to be born to a serving prime minister in more than 150 years.

Blair, 54, left office after 10 years on Wednesday, handing over power to Gordon Brown.

近日一部新電視紀錄片曝出英國前任首相布萊爾向夫人切麗的求婚史,據說當時在意大利度假的切麗正在打掃衛生間。

切麗·布萊爾在接受BBC電視臺的採訪時說,1979年的一天,布萊爾向她求了婚,當時她正在意大利托斯卡納的別墅打掃衛生。

這位人權律師在節目中說:“當時我正跪着洗廁所,他突然說,我們是不是該結婚了。” 這期名爲《切麗·布萊爾二三事》的節目將於本週三播出。

主持人問她:“所以,你在洗廁所的時候就答應嫁給他了?”

她回答說:“是的,很有情調!當時可真是浪漫極了!”

另據節目曝光,布萊爾稱呼切麗爲“利物浦的布爾什維克”,因爲原籍爲英格蘭西北部利物浦的切麗常常直言不諱。

布萊爾夫婦生了四個孩子,而在2000年出生的兒子里奧是英國150多年來首相在任期間生的第一個孩子。

54歲的布萊爾擔任首相十年,他已於上週三卸任,由戈登·布朗接任首相一職。
