Nick Banks child bride?

So, whilst looking through the old Pulp People zines on the pulp wiki website I came across an uncomfortable quote in the opening paragraph of the July/August 1996 edition. "Nick married Sarah, his beautiful child bride.."
Now, I'm an adult and I understand that famous people can do sleazy things and still make good art, but I am curious. How old was she? I checked several online sources on Banks and got nowhere. I am also from the UK, so I understand she may be 16 at the youngest, but still curious if anybody knows the details or if this is just a somewhat dark joke.

I tried adding a screenshot to the post but i get a message saying I need to own all media aspects before I post, sorry, new to reddit. I can link in the comments if anybody is curious too.

Leather conditioner vs nature cream

So, for the longest time I have been using this old tub of New Rock "nature cream" that was given to me by my parents to treat dry/scuffed leather boots a day or two before a polish, or to keep the leather hydrated until the next maintenance session. This worked well enough for day-to-day wear, but my girlfriend has a beautiful pair of vintage leather boots i want to treat, and I wanted to do my research. I've seen absolutely no mention of "nature cream" anywhere on any leathercare websites, and I want to know if it compares at all to a specialized leather conditioner or balm.
I don't have a photo as my phone is currently lost, but the ingredients (or "components") listed are:

  • beeswax
  • yoyoba oil [sic.]
  • lanoline

I've already treated her boots as they were very worn, and they look and feel great, but is it worth it to invest in a genuine leather conditioner/ balm or can I keep using this without worry?

thank you.
