A 103-year-old man and a 91-year-old woman have held their wedding in Britain, becoming the oldest couple in the world to get married.
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, in front of 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.
Speaking ahead of the ceremony, Ms Luckie said the couple had “no regrets” about not doing it earlier.
“We didn’t want to bother about marriage before but eventually we did it,” she said.
The couple reportedly have seven children, 15 grandchildren and seven great-grandchildren between them.
