Oldest couple in the world celebrate 79 years of marriage

From last week, the title of oldest couple in the world is held by the Ecuadorians Julio, aged 110, and Waldramina, aged 104. They completed 79 years of marriage, a record certified by Guinness World Records.


Their story begins in 1941, when Julio ran away from home to get married to Waldramina in secret – the union was not blessed by their families. The couple live in Quito, are retired teachers and have five children, 11 grandchildren, 21 great-grandchildren and 9 great-great-grandchildren.
