From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference
This thread was started due to the near-edit war over River being Twelve's spouse. Thing is, that was already determined by an admin on Talk:Twelfth Doctor/Archive 2. User:23skidoo stated:
- "I have to agree with WarGrowl. The episode clearly indicates that the Doctor was still married to River because River - in her time line - had not yet died. The River the Eleventh Doctor met in "The Name of the Doctor" is referred to as his ex-wife because that River was dead. And if one subscribes to the Twelve/Clara romantic relationship idea (which has been endorsed in multiple televised and cinema-screened interviews by Jenna Coleman, Peter Capaldi and Steven Moffat), keep in mind that THORS clearly indicates that River married several people while still married to the Doctor. So it all evens out (and there's no indication of Clara and the Doctor ever having wed, anyway). So it is perfectly correct to say the Twelfth Doctor was still married."
Whenever there is a doubt or an edit war, always check the talk pages first.
