If you want proof that love really is blind, an Argentinean man has married a woman who is 58 years his senior.
Reinaldo Waveqche married Adelfa Volpes in the northern Argentine city of Santa Fe in a civil ceremony on Saturday.
And for all those who would like to assert that the groom is a gold-digger, the happy couple have in fact been living together for nearly ten years.
The bizarre set of circumstances that led to the union began when Reinaldo's mother died when he was just 15 years old.
His late mother's friend, Adelfa, took the boy in and as he got older, the love between them blossomed.
As the beaming groom walked his elderly bride down the aisle, he told reporters that the 58-year age gap between them did not stand in the way of their love.
"I don't care what people say," he said, adding "I've always liked mature women."
