Groom ... Stoil Panayotov - Barcroft Media
A LUCKLESS farmer who was been married three times has decided to try his hand at marriage one last time - with a goat.
Bulgarian Stoil Panayotov, exchanged his third wife with Elena the eight-year-old goat at a livestock market in March - because she couldn't provide him with a child.
The extraordinary deal was concluded in front of a stunned crowd in the market town of Plovdiv, central Bulgaria.

'The day before a friend told me that he has had no luck with women and that he really liked my wife,' says the 54-year-old.
'The deal was reached when my wife gave her approval.'
Stoil was first married at just 18, two months before his national service.
However his luck soon started to wane after his mother fell out with his new bride and removed her form the family home.
After a very short second marriage, Stoil then married his third and final wife Maria with whom he stayed with for nine years.
Things however turned sour and after failing to provide him with a child, he decided enough was enough.
“The goat has given birth to three kids and my wife to none,'"
