Daniel O'Donnell has said the secret to his marriage to wife Majella is that they met later in the life.
The pair have been married for over 20 years, after tying the knot in 2002.
The country singer has said that not having the struggles of "raising young children" helped their relationship.

“I think because we were older when we met, that helped,” said Daniel.
“We hadn’t the struggles of raising small children, although Majella’s children weren’t grown up at the time.
“They were only nine and 11 years old when I first met them, and they were with us a lot. I think that’s a big factor – when you’re older there are different stresses, or not as much stress.”
Speaking to the Independent, Daniel said he never struggled to fill the role of stepparent.
“I never had a bit of bother. Honestly, I was very lucky that I got on well with them right from the word go," he said.
“And now Siobhan has three children – the grandchildren – and I see them all the time, and they’re just the greatest joy of everything for me.”
The pair renewed their vows earlier this year to mark their 20th wedding anniversary.
"Majella’s two children and their partners were there, along with the grandchildren," said Daniel.
“It was just in the house, and it was a very quiet, family gathering.”
On whether the pair would renew their vows for their 30th anniversary, he said: “Hopefully if we are both about, then yes – why not?”
Unfortunately, the family were struck by tragedy soon after as Daniel's sister Kathleen sadly passed away in February.
“It was a great loss, and for her own husband and children as well. They are the ones who miss her the most, I would imagine," said Daniel.
“It’s just one of those things. Every family goes through it, and it was our turn, I suppose.”
