"Their a couple"

Quote :

The pair have been talking about family planning for some time, but at first had trouble conceiving.

Maybe one of them is infertile.

Good for them. I just resent having to hear about it when I was really tuning in for actual news. Woman having babies is not news.

Their not a couple - they're a couple.

I'm told the egregious spelling errors were eventually corrected on the website. My complaints may seem incomprehensible at present therefore.

Not only were the two women described as "their a couple" but the article mentioned they were having trouble conceiving -- without mentioning in vitro, surrogacy or turkey basters. Made it sound like every couple should have no trouble conceiving, regardless of gender.
