Pensioner insists her young lover is not after her money and just wants her

Despite a 45-year age gap, the pensioner claims that her toyboy lover has made her “feel like a virgin again” after initially meeting on Facebook.

A British pensioner is set to marry her Egyptian toyboy lover and claims despite their 45-year age gap he’s made her “feel like a virgin again”.

Iris Jones, 80, met jobless 35-year-old Mohamed Ahmed Irbriham on Facebook before flying to Cairo to take their love affair to the next level.

The old aged pensioner says the pair had sex within hours of meeting and tried to get married after just four days but didn’t have the right paperwork.

Iris, from Weston-super-Mare, is now preparing to fly back to Egypt to officially tie the knot.

She told the Sunday People: “It was incredible. I felt like a virgin again. It wasn’t easy, but it was very loving and romantic.

“My ex-husband said I was frigid when we divorced 40 years ago, but I now know I’m certainly not.”

The former cleaner divorced from her ex-husband four decades ago, and the pair have two children, Steve, 54, and Darren, 53.

Iris says Darren has raised concerns the toyboy is only after her money but insists their relationship is true love.

She said: “If he’s marrying me for my fortune he’ll be sadly disappointed because I live on a pension.

“He’s even said he’ll sign a pre-nup because it’s me he wants – not my house. I’ve spent years making other people happy, now I just want to marry the man I love before I die.”

Iris lives in a £220,000 ($A422,170) bungalow and lives on a £200-a-week ($A383) pension and disability benefit.

Mohamed, from Giza, claims he was forced to quit his job after his boss refused to give him time off for Iris to visit.

Despite the physical connection, the romantic trip hit a snag when Iris was forced to spend two nights in hospital after falling down some stairs in the Egyptian capital.

The pair are now determined for Mohamed to come and live in the UK, but he has been refused a tourist visa because of a lack of savings.

Iris insists she will move to Egypt to live with her new husband after the wedding if he is denied residence in Britain.
