Grandmother, 71, Marries A 17-Year-Old Boy

When grieving pensioner Almeda Errell from Sevierville, Tennessee went to pay her last respects at her son's funeral, the last thing she expected to find was love.

Following a whirlwind three-week romance, she and Gary Hardwick – now 18, and who had previously dated a woman of 77 – tied the knot in a ceremony which he arranged for just $200 (£137) in six days.

And now the unlikely pair are sharing Almeda's house with one of her grandsons who is three years older than her new husband.
