| The oldest twins
in the world! |
|
| Marie
and Gabrielle celebrates their 100th birthday. |
02 Oct 2010. The world’s oldest twins have
celebrated their 100th birthday among a gathering
of friends and family in the Belgian town of Spa.
The Guinness Book of World Records earlier had listed
two French women, Raymonde and Lucienne, as the
oldest twins. But they had only reached 98 when
they celebrated their birthdays this year. Later,
a local French web site said they received a note
from a man saying his twin aunts, born in 1910,
were still alive and kicking. What’s behind
their longevity could it be the therapeutic waters
of Spa that has kept these two Belgian women alive
for so long?
Marie and Gabrielle are the twin sisters of the
century. But the two sisters did not spend all their
lives here. Their father originally lived in a town
north of Paris before moving to Belgium. Celebrating
their 100th birthday in their retirement home in
the Belgian town of Spa on Saturday, they are most
likely the oldest twin sisters in the world.Neither
of them had children but around 150 people came
to celebrate their birthday, Belgian media are proudly
reporting that their very own Marie and Gabrielle
are the oldest twins in the world and on record,
even though they were born in France... |
