PER CURIAM.

The trial court dismissed an action seeking recovery for physical and emotional injury resulting from the emotional impact of witnessing an automobile accident when the plaintiff's "live in" ladyfriend was killed. We affirm.

There was no marriage and therefore no legal relationship between the plaintiff and the deceased and therefore no cause of action for emotional distress. Champion v. Gray, 478 So.2d 17
