Difficult because people seemed to look and dress older than we do now. My guess is that he is late 30s to mid 40s, maybe a tad older, and that she is mid 30s to early 40s. Chrisann

I'd put them a bit older -  late 40s to early 50s :)
Best wishes, Judy :-))

I would go mid to late 50's for him and she would be late 40's or early 50's.

I would go along with the mid 40s votes, with him a couple of years or so older than her.

I'm sure they're older than 40s - I'd go for around 50 for her, and mid-50s at least for him.
