36-year-old couple welcomes first child
A 61-year-old man in the UK has a child with his 25-year-old wife, who is even younger than his three children.
Carly Potter from Suffolk gave birth to a son on Christmas Day - three years after she and husband Billy, 61, married.
The couple met when Carly was 18. She broke down and Billy offered to help fix it. But the romance didn't begin until six months later when Carly started working at Billy's bar, who had three children from a previous marriage.
In late 2014, Billy proposed to Carly and they married in August 2015. "I think he found me attractive. After work, I asked him for a ride home a few times and that's how we started," Carly toldNews2.

The pair have been criticised for their relationship, with many accusing Carly of attacking Billy for money. "We tried to hide it because of the age gap and because he has three children, but people noticed," Carly added.
As for Billy, he said he had no intention of getting married again and had made that clear to Carly from the beginning of their relationship. But gradually he realized his love and wanted to be with her. Most of all, after marriage, he also wanted her to have children like any other woman.
Carly's mother, Linda Northcott, accepted her daughter's unusual relationship from the start. "I have a beautiful little grandchild now, I'm so lucky," she said.
