SINGAPORE - A growing number of seniors are finding love and getting married in the autumn of their lives, a trend that suggests a greater acceptance of unions later in life and evolving values and norms ascribed to ageing.
Mr Leng Chin Fai, a senior consultant at Fei Yue Community Services who also conducts pre-marriage counselling, said that in the past, seniors may have abstained from remarrying as they were afraid people would gossip about them and their children would object.
