A couple who wed when the bride was just 17 say they've proved doubters who said it would "never last" wrong - and shared the secret to their 28-year long marriage. Their union would have been illegal today as the minimum marriage age in England and Wales increased to 18 as of March 2023.
Previously adolescents could get married at 16 or 17 with parental permission. Sabrina Humber, 44, and her husband, Jon, 46, met in March 1995 when they were teens.
Just 16 at the time, Sabrina was working as a cashier in Staines, Middlesex, while Jon was an 18-year-old delivery driver. Their whirlwind romance saw them move in together in May 1995 - just three months after they met.
