World’s Oldest twins at 103

World’s oldest twins are still close as ever at age 103.

Meet Glenys Thomas and Florence Davies, the oldest living twins in the UK, according to Abermill Care Home in Caerphilly, Wales, where they now live. Many reports indicate they also are the oldest identical twins in the world.

They still live next door to each other, much like they have most of their lives, at age 103. The duo were born in Wales in 1911 — the year before the Titanic sank — and have lived through over a dozen prime ministers. Thomas’ daughter, Gwenda Stacey, told the Daily Mail that the sisters have been virtually inseparable most of their lives and even shared a room until her mother left their family home to get married.
