True Love! Couple forced apart as teens by religious parents finally get married 70 years later

 Two childhood sweethearts who were torn apart in their teens have finally tied the knot - 70 years later.

Ed Sellers, 88, fell for Katie Smith, 89, aged 14 when she moved into the house next door to his in the early 1940s.

He asked her out with a handwritten note and they courted or three years but the relationship ended when Katie's strict religious parents banned them from going on dates.
