Barry Manilow's first marriage to 'perfect wife' ended just a year after trying the knot

It has been almost a decade since Barry Manilow married his long-term partner and manager Garry Kief, with the couple set to celebrate their tenth anniversary next year.

Barry - who is best known for songs like Mandy, Copacabana and Could It Be Magic - has spoken about his first marriage, which ended up being annulled, in the past.
