Amanda says “He is black, so he is not the same color as Johnny Depp. But he is dark skinned and has very dark jet-black hair, so he tells me.”
Amanda was smitten with the pirate and fell in love with him. She even went as far as saying that the ghost or Jack as she calls him is powerful enough to turn on lights or get the stereo to play itself. After Amanda gave him an ultimatum, the ghost proposed to her. “I told him I wasn’t really cool with having casual sex with a spirit and I wanted us to make a proper commitment to each other.
“If I am going to be in a long-term relationship with somebody I have the right to be married.

The couple was married by a shaman priest in a boat off the Irish coast in international waters to make the wedding legal. She also hired a registrar to attend the ceremony. As marriages to dead people in some countries like China and France are legal, Amanda decided to get the ceremony performed in international waters to avoid legal issues in Ireland.

According to Teague, she is the first person in the UK to marry a ghost and now she is also in the process of writing a book with the ghost’s help so that other men or women will be inspired to carry out their own wishes of marrying ghosts.
The marriage, however, is not recognized by Irish law even though Amanda says she followed all legal procedures to the letter.
