Quran on the other hand said his family members love his wife, Cheryl.
Social media users divided
Kizzi Hemmngz said:
"Some of you are here judging them but can't keep a tab on your man/woman or relationship. If this is what makes them happy who are you to judge. Let them be, they're not breathing in your faces."
Anna K. Rivera wrote:
"Well, it is true that she looks a bit older than 61 and so what? Appearance is not always for everyone. Also, she has a beautiful hair and she's cheerful. It seems they get along pretty well. I send them blessings."
Rach Rachid stated:
"I think you are very lucky, in a time we do not find true love, not rarely, it does not matter what others think, important is what you feel"
Daveisha Tanck remarked:
"You don’t have to agree with their relationship or even be okay with it but what bothers me is how people behind a computer or phone are behaving. We need to all show a bit of humanity and consider that she is a person and has feelings too. She is someone’s, mother and someone’s daughter and people need to treat people how they would like to be treated."
64-year-old woman marries for the first time
Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that a 64-year-old Nigerian woman had finally married for the first time.
In an interview with BBC News Pidgin, the woman said that people told her she is just way above a woman any man would be interested in.
According to her, God did it for her and put many people to shame. She revealed that her heartthrob is not only taller than she is, he is also way older.
The woman stated that the most painful thing was that the child that was delivered in her presence grew up to get married and even had a kid of her own.
