The Hendersons are known as the world’s oldest married couple. In 2019, the record was entered into the Guinness Book of World Records. Charlotte was 105 years old, and John was 106.

In 1934, the future spouses first met at the University of Texas. Charlotte was studying to be a teacher at the time, and John was a member of the soccer team. On December 15, 1939, the young couple married. They’d been married for 80 years.

Furthermore, John Henderson is thought to be the oldest ex-player from the University of Texas soccer squad. For the past 84 years, the pair has attended at least one game per season.

When spouses are asked what the secret of their strong marriage is, they say that they observe moderation and treat each other with cordiality.
