Taipei, Feb. 14 (CNA) A Taiwanese-British gay couple has finally become legal partners, one year after holding a wedding ceremony in Taiwan that received blessings from across the country, despite widespread curiosity about the huge age gap between them.

25-year-old Chao Shou-chuan (趙守泉) and Andrew Goodier, 76, from the English city of Leicester, had their union legally recognized following the Feb. 12 registration of their union with the Miaoli City Household Registration Office.

"We finally got married, although it is belated," Chao said in a Facebook post that day. "I've finished my days as a single guy, and the other Mr. Chao (Goodier) must behave carefully from now on."

"Andy was also very happy," Chao said. "He thinks the registration is good for both of us and also for other same-sex couples in this country."    [FULL  STORY]
