He's cuddling future wife in part of Scotland (8)
I believe the answer is:
hebrides
'part of scotland' is the definition.
(I know that Hebrides is part of Scotland)
'he's cuddling future wife' is the wordplay.
'cuddling' is an insertion indicator (inserted letters are cuddled or held).
'future wife' becomes 'bride' (I have seen 'Wife of groom ' mean 'bride' so perhaps 'wife' could also mean 'bride'. I am not sure about the 'future' bit.).
'hes' enclosing 'bride' is 'HEBRIDES'.
'in' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for hebrides that I've seen before include "Islands off north-west Scotland" , "Does his breed come from west of Scotland?" , "His breed comes from west of Scotland" , "Isles?" , "Muck out here" .)
