Couple, 65, have twins in Turkey’s Van
An 85-year-old resident of Turkey’s Van city has had twin babies from his second wife who is 46, the Milliyet newspaper’s website reports.
Despite his elderly age, the man, Abdullah Selvinj, is said to be helping his spouse in growing the kids.
“It came as a surprise to me. We have certain material difficulties, but the important thing for me to see my kids growing up healthy. I have 15 children from two of my wives,” he said.
The twins were born 20 days ahead of the expected date.
Abdullah’s first wife, who gave him 10 children, died 15 years ago. He later married his current spouse, Mihrinaz Sevinj with who he had given him two sons and one daughter.
Without more children for nine years, the couple later decided to have another baby.
