Bob and Kelly Baker have been happily married for nearly five years and like any loving husband, all Bob cares about is his young wife’s happiness.

But OAP Bob acknowledges he’s likely to die while 29-year-old Kelly is still in her prime, admitting he’s planning to help his wife find new love before he dies - and will even set her up on dates with men he thinks will make her happy.

****But for the moment the couple are making the most of the time they have together.

Kelly - who’s currently unemployed and lives in Hemel Hempstead, Hertfordshire with Bob - says: “Bob’s turning 70 this year, but he’s healthy and our relationship is better than ever. He worries about my future once he’s gone and wants to make sure I’m well looked after, and has even said he wants to set me up on dates before he dies, so that he can make sure I’m cared for by the right man.

“But I don’t want to think about meeting a new man. Bob’s the only one for me and I want to concentrate on our relationship. He’s young at heart. We love going to the social club, playing darts together or going shopping. He’s very passionate, active for his age and we have a good sex life – if anything he’s got more energy than me in the bedroom!

****“Sometimes people stare, and Bob’s been mistaken for my granddad, but I don’t care what other people think. I’d like to have kids at some in the future, I know it won’t be with Bob as he feels he’s too old and already has three children, so I don’t know how it will work out.”
