Yay, another pointless development that'll ultimately have no impact on the characters whatsoever since we all know how Han & Leia's relationship pans out.

Han having a wife will most certainty stall the development of the relationship. You seem to forget that there is 3 years of space between ANH and ESB so this is a much needed roadblock.

Also none of us know the nature of this marriage or how it was orchestrated so your complaints at this juncture are unwarranted. Not only that...Han having a secret wife fits his character...
