One's associate in marriage or business (7)

I believe the answer is:

partner

(Other definitions for partner that I've seen before include "Husband or wife" , "Ally" , "Associate, in business or private life" , "Colleague, bedfellow" , "Either one of a couple" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
