GM Fressinet defeated GM Romain Edouard 1.5 - 0.5 in the playoff to win the 2010 French Championship. His wife, IM Skripchencko, won the 2010 French Women's Championship yesterday.
Congratulations to the couple!
GM Monika Soćko and her husband GM Bartosz Soćko won the Polish Championship not long ago. Can you name other husband / wife teams who have done the same?

Not Monika Bartosz, but Monika Soćko ;)
I'm guessing Cramling and Bellon.
Before marriage Praveen and Bhagyashree Thipsay have won many Indian National chess championships, after marriage in 1994 they won the men's and women's titles respectively

Perhaps Gilberto Hernández in Mexico and Claudia Amura in Argentina.
