Meet the world's 'oldest couple' with combined age of 217

A Chinese pair with combined age of 217 is the "oldest couple in the world," it has been revealed.

The 109-years-old Ping Muhu and his 108-yearsold wife, Zhang Xinniu are two gray-haired lovebirds in China, whose combined age spans more than two centuries, the New York Post reported.

The pair has more than 60 children and grandchildren.

Muhu, who recently celebrated his 109th birthday, told Central European News that although it's a bit hard to keep track of them all, especially with his sight not being what it was, but they certainly don't suffer from a lack of affection.

The centenarian couple may credit their everlasting love and longevity to taking it easy and watching what they eat, but Muhu also believes it relies on finding someone who cares.
