THE widower of MP Jo Cox is to marry again — seven years after her murder.
Brendan Cox and Anna Ryder were introduced through a mutual friend two years ago.
Brendan, 44, confirmed he is set to wed and said: “We are both very much looking forward to celebrating with our families.”
The pair are planning a woodland ceremony in Herefordshire.
Anna, 37, is director of Killed Women, a network which campaigns on behalf of the relatives of victims of fatal domestic violence.

Labour MP Jo was fatally shot and stabbed as she attended her constituency surgery in Birstall, West Yorks, in 2016.
A far-right extremist was jailed for life for the killing later that year.
Since Jo’s death, Brendan has dedicated himself to raising their kids Cuillin, 12, and Lejla, ten, and fighting extremism.
He co-founded the Together Coalition, to promote closer community cohesion.
A source said: “They are very happy together. It’s lovely news for the family.
“Brendan’s a fantastic dad and his focus has been very much on the children.
“It was with their encouragement that Brendan and Anna wanted to take this step. They are very excited for the wedding.”
