An 82-year-old woman who stunned the nation by discussing her love life with her Egyptian toyboy on TV is still happily married to her "priceless gem" three years on. Iris Jones married 36-year-old Mohamed Ahmed Ibriham in 2020 and hit the headlines in the same year following an entertaining interview on ITV's This Morning.
Despite the 45-year age gap, the couple fell for each other when they met in 2019 through a Facebook group for atheists and tried to get married within four days of first meeting one another in Cairo, but were denied by incorrect paperwork. When they eventually got married a year later, Mohamed moved in with her after being granted a three-year visa.
Iris left This Morning hosts Philip Schofield and Holly Willoughby squirming with the details of their first night of passion together - before they got married, she said: “Pretty rough. Nobody had been near me for 35 years. I thought I was a virgin again."
