Encomium
A couple born in beds next to each other on the same day in the same hospital and ended up getting married, will be celebrating their 60th birthdays together next week.
Dave O’Callaghan and Jane Hammond were both born at the Mowbray Maternity Hospital in Exeter, Devon (England) on January 26, 1955 – but they didn’t meet until they were 17 as they grew up on opposite sides of Exeter. Not long after, the pair fell in love and were engaged at 21, before marrying the next year.
Their 38-year marriage has produced two children Lydia (29) and Imogen (25) and will be marking their milestone ages together on Monday (January 26).
