20 long-term couples whose love has only grown stronger over the years

Will you still need me, will you still feed me when I’m 64? For these lovebirds, the answer was a huge resounding yes!

There’s no sell-by date on love. An enduring relationship depends on the people who are sharing their love for one another.

The 20 couples below were just as deeply in love in old age as they had been when they first said those three magic words decades ago.

Maintaining a relationship over years and decades takes a lot of work. Every relationship below has seen its ups and downs. But the important thing is that their commitment to one another has never waned.
