An 82-year-old Argentine woman who attracted media attention last month when she married a 24-year-old man has died as a result of heart problems. Adelfa Volpes was admitted to hospital soon after she and her new husband, Reinaldo Waveqche, returned from their honeymoon in Brazil. She died in a sanatorium in Santa Fe, the city where the couple were married.

Ms Volpes had rejected criticism over the age difference with the groom, who is the son of one of her best friends. "I don't want to resign myself to the idea that I lost her," a disconsolate Mr Waveqche told EFE news agency. The couple were married on 28 September in a civil service after several years of engagement, and later walked through a local church surrounded by reporters. Their love is said to have blossomed when Mr Waveqche went to live with his future bride after his mother's death, when he was 15.
