What happened to Gillian?


Although the movie suggested only a friendship with Thackeray and Gillian,
the book by E.R. Braithwaite went into more detail about their relationship,
which was more of an "engaged to be engaged" arrangement. None of the Wikipedia
or other sites about the author contains any information; does anyone know
whether the two teachers ever got married?

I'm not crying, you fool, I'm laughing!

They were engaged, but there is resistance from Gillian's parents due to the racial issue, but Braithwaite and Gillian are going to make a go of it anyway.
