Couple from Brazil breaks world record: longest marriage of a living couple
SHARE

Two centenarians broke the Guinness World Record for longest marriage of a living couple, as reported by Jam Press and confirmed by LongeviQuest, a database on the life and times of the world’s oldest people.

Manoel Angelim Dino, 105, first met Maria de Sousa Dino, 101, while collecting sweets in Brazil in 1936. They remained acquaintances until they met again in 1940.

When the couple reunited, Manoel said he fell in love at first sight. He declared his sentiments to Maria, who felt the same. The couple has now been happily married for 84 years and 85 days.

Maria’s mother was unsure of the couple’s union at first, according to Jam Press. Manoel quickly won her favor after building a house for himself, Maria and their future family.

By this time, World War II was breaking out in Europe. Back in Brazil, the couple grew tobacco to support their 13 children.

Today, the family has expanded to include 55 grandchildren, 54 great-grandchildren and 12 great-great-grandchildren.

Manoel and Maria now spend their time at home enjoying the life they’ve built.

Due to his age, Manoel spends most of his time resting. However, he gets up every evening to sit with his wife in their living room, where they listen to a rosary prayer on the radio followed by Mass on television, according to LongeviQuest.

When asked about the secret to their long marriage, Maria simply said: “Love. And that’s something even the most advanced computer could never calculate.”

The previous record was held by an American couple, Herbert Fisher, born in 1905, and Zelmyra Fisher, born in 1907. They were together for 86 years and 290 days until Herbert passed away on February 27, 2011, according to Guinness.

The longest-ever recorded marriage belongs to David Jacob Hiller, born in 1789, and Sarah Davy Hiller, born in 1792. 

After tying the knot in Canada in 1809, their union lasted an incredible 88 years and 349 days until Sarah passed away in 1898, Guinness stated.
