Fate Or Coincidence Brought Two Lonely People Together

Here’s a little story to make you go ahhhh! Reg and Christine Upton of Anslow in Staffordshire, England say that a ‘moment of coincidence’ led them to celebrating their diamond wedding.

Over 60 years ago they both had dates in a local park but both were stood up. So, with the help of fate or coincidence, the two wallflowers got together instead – in a perfectly respectable way, of course. And now they have celebrated their 60th anniversary with 140 guests.

Reg and Christine have five sons, one daughter, 15 grandchildren and 11 great-grandchildren.

Reg told the Burton Mail, “I am proud to say that we are still as much in love as we were when we first met and we would do it all over again if we could. I still remember when we first met. I was 19 and Chris was 17, and I remember having to pay for everything at the wedding.

We still love each other as much as we did then and still hold hands while we are on holiday and we love each others company.”

I guess some things are just meant to be.

Nearly forgot: ahhhh!
