A husband and wife with the age of 211 together, say they are the world's oldest married couple. 

The couple celebrated their birthdays with four generations of their family at their home in Bradford, West Yorkshire, on Sunday. They met in December 1925 in India when they were teenagers. 

Their son Paul Chand said he was proud to see his parents celebrate almost a century of married life. He said: 'It has been a special day for my family and for us all to be able to come together like this. Relatives came by air from India to be with us. 

'People always ask me: "What do they eat? What are you feeding them and how do they stay so healthy?" 'I tell them, "If I knew that I would be eating the same thing myself!" '

Mr Chand, who moved to the UK in 1965, has said in the past: 'Eat and drink what you want but in balance. I have never stopped enjoying my life.' The retired mill worker smokes one cigarette a day before his evening meal and also drinks a lot of whiskey or brandy three to four times a week. 

Mrs Chand said: 'We have always eaten healthful food. We know that being married for 86 years is a blessing, but equally we will be ready to go when it's time. It's all up to the will of God, but we really have lived a good life. We just get along with each other and we love our families, it's simple really.' 

The couple have eight children, 27 grandchildren and many great grandchildren.
