A GRAN-OF-10 has revealed how she fell in love and married a toyboy who is 36 years her junior - after they spoke on Facebook.<\/p>\n
Isabell Dibble, 62, fell for Bayram Boussada, 26, a taxi driver, after he added her on Facebook in May 2019.<\/p>\n
7<\/p>\n
The receptionist initially declined his online friend request - thinking he was \"too young\" for her.<\/p>\n
Although Isabell was skeptical at first, after they got chatting the pair hit it off almost immediately.<\/p>\n
The gran flew over to meet him in Madeira in October 2019, where he proposed.<\/p>\n
Smitten Isabell said yes and despite their 36-year age gap, she says she has never been happier.<\/p>\n

The lovebirds tied the knot in January 2020 in Madeira at a registry, and celebrated with around 100 guests, including Bayram's family.<\/p>\n
But now the couple are struggling to get Bayram to the UK amid the coronavirus outbreak and flying restrictions and they are not sure when they will next be together.<\/p>\n
Isabell, from Kent, said: \"I know there are so many cons that go on so I had my doubts and I was skeptical.<\/p>\n
\"I read stories about women like this and I never thought I'd be in this position.<\/p>\n
7<\/p>\n
\"He's never asked me for money, he's never asked me for anything.<\/p>\n
\"He doesn't care if I move there or he comes here, we just want to be together.<\/p>\n
\"I have family here, children and grandchildren, so I don't want to leave.<\/p>\n
\"We're struggling to get him over here with everything going on, neither of us earn enough unfortunately, but hopefully things will turn around soon.\"<\/p>\n
Bayram had added Isabell on Facebook on a whim, but she initially turned him down thinking he was someone she met on holiday in Tunisia in May 2019.<\/p>\n
7<\/p>\n
Isabell had been asked out by a barista in the airport on the way home from the trip, but said no as he was \"too young\".<\/p>\n
When she got back to the UK, she noticed his friend's request but declined for the same reason.<\/p>\n
However when she saw his profile again in her suggested friends, she decided to send him a request so they could 'chat'.<\/p>\n
Isabell said: \"He was good-looking but a very young looking chap.<\/p>\n
\"When he popped up again I thought: 'Why not add him?' \"It would just be to chat - it didn't have to be anything serious.\"<\/p>\n
However as Isabella started messaging the man online, she quickly realised it was someone different who had the same name.<\/p>\n
His name was also Bayram and he also lived in Tunisia, but the pair had never crossed paths until now.<\/p>\n
7<\/p>\n
She said: \"We literally spoke for hours and sometimes we were up till 3am on the phone.<\/p>\n
\"I knew there was something there before we met face-to-face.\"<\/p>\n
The pair started discussing marriage and Bayram invited Isabell out to visit him in Tunisia in October 2019.<\/p>\n
She ended up staying for a week and met his parents, who helped set up a surprise proposal for Isabell.<\/p>\n
She said: \"It was like we'd known each other our whole lives. I know people say that but it really felt like that.<\/p>\n
He was good-looking but a very young looking chap. I thought: 'Why not add him?' It would just be to chat - it didn't have to be anything serious.<\/p>\n
\"He started calling me 'his wife' and I said if he really wanted to marry, he'd have to ask properly.<\/p>\n
\"A week later he sent me pictures of a tray of rings and asked me to pick one.<\/p>\n
\"When I arrived in Tunisia, I met his parents - who were incredible.<\/p>\n
\"They set up candles everywhere and got a cake and he proposed to me in front of them.<\/p>\n
\"My family were a bit shocked to begin with and told me to be careful, which is natural.<\/p>\n
\"Some came around quicker than others but everyone is fine now and happy for me.\"<\/p>\n

Isabell flew back over to Tunisia the following year and the pair tied the knot on January 2nd 2020.<\/p>\n
She was joined by Bayram's family but her family stayed in the UK.<\/p>\n
Despite their age gap, Isabell says her family is supportive of their relationship.<\/p>\n
She said: \"My family were unsure at first, of course they would be.<\/p>\n
\"But their attitude is: 'You had it tough in life, so do whatever makes you happy.'<\/p>\n
\"I lost three husbands and they know I need some excitement and love in my life.<\/p>\n
\"They know I'm young at heart and that he makes me happy.<\/p>\n
She is so crazy but good crazy - I love her so much. Isabell is my gorgeous woman.<\/p>\n
Isabell, who has three children and 10 grandchildren, says the pair on the same page about having kids.<\/p>\n
Isabell said: \"We've spoken about kids and I've already got three grown up daughters, so I don't want anymore.<\/p>\n
\"For now, he's happy not having kids.<\/p>\n
\"Plus he's young enough that if he does change his mind, he'll have time when he's older to have them with someone else.\"<\/p>\n
The pair are now hoping to get Bayram across to the UK so they can start their married life together.<\/p>\n
She said: \"There must be so many people in our position with their partners stuck abroad and finding it hard to get a visa during the Covid-19 outbreak.<\/p>\n
\"It's so difficult with everything going on at the moment, it's a bit up in the air.<\/p>\n
\"I just can't wait to get him over here so we can stay enjoying time together.\"<\/p>\n
7<\/p>\n
Bayram, who works as a taxi driver, can't wait to start his life with Isabell once the travel restrictions are lifted.<\/p>\n
He said: \"I don't care about our age gap, I don't think about it.<\/p>\n
\"Age is just a number and I don't see her as an 'older woman', I just see her as a good woman.<\/p>\n
\"She just makes me so happy - I trust her and she trusts me.<\/p>\n
\"Corona is making it hard but she is my wife, I'd wait forever, and soon everything can start again.<\/p>\n
\"She is so crazy but good crazy - I love her so much. Isabell is my gorgeous woman.<\/p>\n
\"She is my soul, my everything.\"<\/p>\n
He started calling me 'his wife' and I said if he really wanted to marry, he'd have to ask properly.<\/p>\n
Isabell's daughter, Emma, 37, was dubious when she first found out about Bayram but is now fully supportive of her mum's relationship.<\/p>\n
She said: \"You hear all sorts of stories about younger men meeting older women and they're only after one thing.<\/p>\n
\"The thing that really worried me was that she was going to another country to meet a stranger.<\/p>\n
\"Although after seeing their connection, I can see how genuine they are.<\/p>\n
\"He clearly loves my mum.<\/p>\n
\"She's been through a lot over the years and had lots of losses in life so it's really nice to see her happy.<\/p>\n
