China's longest-living couple look back on 90 years of marital bliss

Two Chinese lovebirds who have been married for 90 years - and who are still in love at the ripe age of over 100 - are proving that love can indeed last a lifetime.

Wrinkled and pepper-haired, the couple from Yuzhou, Henan province, have not only reached a rare marital milestone but have been named China's oldest couple for the third year in a row, Chinanews.com reports.

The husband, 109, and his 108-year-old wife are both older than the People's Republic of China (founded in 1949) and have exceeded the nation's life expectancy, which according to the World Bank is 75 years.

Though they look skinny and frail in photographs, doctors say they are both still in good health.

Whenever either of them go to the doctor for a medical check-up, the other reportedly gazes lovingly at their partner's face all throughout the procedure.
