This is just so lovely
An elderly couple have tied the knot in their 80s after they fell in love on an internet dating site. Tricia Shaw, 85, admitted she went "wobbly at the knees" when she met her beau Ian, 82, who was three years her junior.
Tricia now believes more octogenarians should embrace online matchmaking after the pair enjoyed a "magical" wedding in front of 115 guests. Great-gradmother-of-five Tricia, from Lytham St Annes, Lancs., came across Ian’s profile after going on the dating platform Plenty More Fish seven years ago. But he was intrigued when Tricia sent another cheeky message prompting him to get “in touch” and wrote back after completing his hike.
She said: “My legs wobbled when I first met Ian. I’d met four other gentlemen before, always at Formby Hall to make sure I was safe, so they knew what was happening."
