"Don't get it twisted, love is a beautiful thing" - D'banj

Childhood sweetheart Bob Humphries, 89, and Bernie Bluett, 88, reunited in 2011 after losing touch during the World War II. At the time He was 18 and she was 17.

Life happened to both of them as Bernie's disapproving parents refused to pass on Bob's letters. The two lovebirds went on to marry other people.

Thanks to Ms Bluett's daughter, the couple reunited and after 70 years of being apart, they are set to tie the knot on Saturday.

Mr Humphries said Mrs Bluett had left an impression on him when they first met all those years ago.

He said: "When circumstances brought us closer together we finally got married after all these years. It has been quite stressful but I am looking forward to it."

Mrs Bluett added: "When I saw him again I didn't see an old man – I saw that young soldier. We both feel young at heart."
