Husband and wife say love life is 'strong as ever' despite 40 year age gap

A husband and wife with an almost 40-year age gap say their love life is as strong as ever, and the romance hasn’t dimmed, despite Edna being 83 and Simon 44 years old.

The pair met at a concert in 2003 and said it was “love at first sight” with them immediately falling into each other’s arms and have been barely separable since.
