It's never too late for love

A British couple - with a combined age of 163 - have finally tied the knot after their relationship 'blossomed' since meeting seven years ago.



Betty Erskine, 90, met her 'toyboy' Robin Tremayne, 73, in 2003 when the pair lived in the same retired accommodation block, reports the Daily Mail.

The pair regularly chatted and later started seeing one another romantically, before Robin moved in and popped the question in 2009.

The couple married in front of friends and family at Exmouth Town Hall, Devon on Saturday and will go on a honeymoon in this country later this year.

Tremayne said: "I love Betty and it just seemed the right thing to do.I know it might be unusual to marry out our age but it's not unheard of and it was just a natural progression of our relationship," he added.

Former dinner lady Erskine said: "The wedding was a great chance to have another party. It just seemed right. We always agree and never fall out. He's patient with me and looks after me and that's all a girl wants really."

The marriage is the third for both of them, after both divorcing and outliving their second partners.
