82-year-old Iris Mohamed and her 36-year-old husband Mohamed Ahmed Ibriham are proving that love transcends religion, caste or even age. Even though there is an age gap of 46 years, it is in no way affecting our lives, said the couple.

The duo met and fell in love through Facebook. Following which, Iris went to Egypt to meet Mohamed Ahmed. They got married three years back. In the meantime, the couple remained separate for about a month. During the time, we realized how much we loved each other, said Iris.

The pain of separation was unbearable. But I was more than happy when my husband returned, said Iris. Mohamed also made it clear that he did not marry Iris for money.

Iris also opened up about her first sexual experience with Mohamed, in a media interview. ‘It was very rough. It's been 35 years since a man touched me. I felt like a virgin again. I couldn’t even walk the next day. I felt like I was riding a horse’, said Iris. After making love, my partner cuts my nails as well, she added.
