An elderly man has shown everyone that it is never too late to find your one true love after he finally found his soulmate, at the age of 95.
Julian Moyle first met his wife Valerie Williams, who is 84, in a church 23 years ago, but did not get down on one knee until very recently when he proposed on February 4. The couple were married yesterday (May 19), WalesOnline reports.
The touching ceremony was conducted at the Calvary Baptist Church in Cardiff, which is the same church where the newlyweds met. Around 40 friends and family attended the service with the cake provided by a local firm.

Julian emigrated from Australia in 1954 and was a first soloist in the Welsh National Opera between 1970 and 1982. In a nod to his past career, an opera singer performed during the wedding day.
Speaking about their emotions on the day, Valerie said "I can't believe it" while her new husband described it as "marvellous" and "like a new year". The couple said they are looking forward to "just being together".
They will celebrate their honeymoon later this year with a trip to Julian's homeland. He said: "It's going to be a deferred honeymoon to Australia, where I will show Mrs Moyle off."
Asked how it feels to finally be married, Julian quipped that he "can't remember any other marriages". He went onto say: "It's like Janus, who had a face on the front of his head and another one on the back of his head, so he could look into the future and into the past.
"It's like a new year, isn't it, in a way? So I'm looking forward very much to your companionship."
Valerie, who described her husband as a "fine gentleman", added: "I make you laugh, don't I? He keeps telling me, she makes me laugh - I don't know why."
Asked what he thought about his wife, Julian said: "Simpatico. She's so, so kind and giving. - loving and giving."
