British couple become world’s oldest newlyweds
- 5 years ago
A 103-year-old man and a 91-year-old woman held their wedding in Britain on Saturday, becoming the oldest couple to get married in the world.
George Kirby and Doreen Luckie — together for 27 years — looked delighted as they tied the knot at a hotel in the seaside town of Eastbourne, southern England, before close friends and family.
The bride wore a white dress with blue flowers while the groom, a former boxer, was dressed smartly in a suit and tie, and was in a wheelchair following a recent fall.
With a combined age of 194 years, the pair beat the previous record held by a French couple, Francois Fernandez and Madeleine Francineau, who had a combined age of 191 years.
