Dear Reader: All I’ve got to say is, “Good for her.” Read on:
A 96-year-old man has become the world’s oldest dad, for the second time.
Indian Pensioner Ramjeet Raghav and his wife, Shakuntala, who is half his age (54), welcomed their second son, Ranjeet, into the world earlier this month.
Ramjeet had already become the world’s oldest dad in 2010 when at age 94 he had first-born Bikramjeet. Despite swearing he would not have anymore children, the active pensioner feels blessed to provide a sibling, adding, “What can I do? This is all God’s wish. He wanted me to have another son.”
Ramjeet said how doctors laughed at him when he stated that he was the father. He said: “They just laughed but they were very surprised.” But he also revealed his neighbors have become jealous of his fertility. “My neighbors are jealous and they keep asking me for my secret, “he said, “but all I tell them is that it is God’s will. I do it three or four times a night.”
“I’m healthy and I enjoy sex with my wife. I think it’s very important for a husband and wife to have sex regularly and when she asks I will go on all night but for the sake of my child I’ve put our needs aside for now.”
Ramjeet claims that a daily diet of almonds, butter and milk kept him sexually active. He also claims he can make love better than any younger man. He said: “I care for my wife and I give her everything she needs. She is a very happy woman.”
After meeting his wife, on a rainy morning while sitting next to a Muslim shrine, he asked her to come home with him and she’s never left. “She didn’t have any family or friends around, and I wanted to help her,’ he explains. ‘I took her under my wing and taught her some yoga and we fell in love. Many of my past girlfriends had died so I had never married and then I asked Shakuntala to be my wife.” Shakuntala believes she would’ve been dead by now if it wasn’t for Ramjeet’s caring ways. She said: “It doesn’t matter how old he is, I love him and I care for him dearly even, though he shouts at me sometimes.” He doesn’t seem old to me, he can make love like any 25-year-old man, even better because he can go on all night, and he makes a wonderful father.”
Ramjeet first married at the age of 24. But after being widowed for 25 years, he married his current wife. They have been together for 22 years. Ramjeet said he had always wanted children but he was never in the right relationship.
