Saturday, November 16, 2024 - A 79-year-old man from Eldoret has married a young bride in a beautiful wedding, months after losing his first wife.

The elderly man, with support from his church, found new love after sharing his desire to remarry with church elders

According to his grandson, he lost his wife almost a year ago.

“He was married, but the wife passed on. After a while, he wanted to marry, but the sons initially did not agree with him about marrying any woman,” he explained.

They later warmed up to the idea and allowed their elderly father to remarry.

"He informed his church that he wanted to remarry, and he was allowed because marriage vows are usually until death, and his wife had died. 

"There was backlash about my grandfather marrying a younger woman, but you know this lady was identified and presented to him by the church,” the grandson further stated.

Below are photos of the couple.
