Gold digger? Surely not!

A 24-year-old man married an 82-year-old woman in Argentina yesterday, insisting it was a union based on "great love" rather than money.

Reinaldo Waveqche, who has lived with his elderly lover Oleander Volpes since the age of 15, said he preferred "mature women''.

Ms Volpes, a retiree who is single and does not have any children, said the age difference had never mattered to either of them.

"I am very pleased,'' she said. "Reinaldo is marvellous, very good, kind and educated. The age difference has never been important for us.''
To paraphrase Mrs Merton, I wonder what first attracted unemployed Reinaldo to the octogenarian millionairess?
