A besotted couple with a 40 year age gap had the last laugh at "haters" by celebrating their 17th wedding anniversary last month.
Edna Martin, 87, and Simon Martin, 47, say they walk hand in hand when they go out, and often have a "little kiss in the supermarket". They say they owe their marriage success to treating each other with affection and going out on adventures every day.
The two met at a concert, when she was 68 and he was 28, and they say it was love at first sight. Having married on July 8, 2005, the pair say they don't care what strangers think.
