Couple FINALLY tie the knot after 42-YEAR-long engagement
David Kavanagh, 74, and Margaret Emberton, 75, tied the knot two weeks ago after a lifetime together.
Even as they decided it was time to make their relationship official, there was a delay after Mr Kavanagh was diagnosed with kidney cancer.
But the happy couple are now husband and wife, after a ceremony at the Royal Free Hospital in Hampstead, north London, in front of a registrar, family and friends.
They met in 1975 at a Jewish youth club where Mrs Kavanagh worked as a cleaner, and her now-husband polished floors to earn extra cash while training to become a taxi driver.
The new Mrs Kavanagh said the reason for waiting so long before marrying Mr Kavanagh was because she ‘wanted to be sure’.
