The newlyweds were pulling onto a five-lane highway in Texas when a truck, which was towing a tractor, ploughed into their car.

Horrified witnesses claim the vehicle flipped multiple times before coming to rest in a ditch – with the same justice of the peace who had just married them declaring them dead.

Harley’s mum Kennia and sister Christina Fontenot was travelling behind the couple when they crashed.

She told KFDM: “I watched my baby die.

“I’m still wearing my son’s blood because I was trying my best to rip him and her out of the car.”
“That’s an image that will haunt me the rest of my life. I won’t forget it. It will never go away.

“I will see that truck hit my baby and kill my baby every night of my life, the rest of the time that I’m on earth.”

She revealed the high school sweethearts were excited to start their lives together and had planned a second Christmas wedding on December 20 for their family and friends.

Police say the driver does not appear to be at fault, but he is cooperating with cops.

He was not injured and is going to undergo drug and alcohol tests.

Orange police chief Captain Keith Longlois said: “The family was right behind them. They were all going out to go to wherever they were going to have their reception.”
