British housewife Dawn Brooke, now 69, has claimed to be the world's oldest natural mother after giving birth at the age of 59, a secret the family kept for ten years.
Dawn Brooke had a healthy boy without any fertility treatment only 12 months before she became eligible for her old age pension.
Her husband, former company director Raymond Brooke, 74, said the couple had kept the 1997 birth private for a decade in order to let their son grow up in peace.
The youngster has been brought up at the couple's £1million home on Guernsey and attends school on the Channel Island.
Relatives of the boy - who is ten today - said he is extremely bright and particularly enjoys maths. But like most children his age he is also a big fan of Harry Potter, a passion he shares with his father.
Mr Brooke married his Londonborn wife a few weeks before their son was born by caesarean section at a Guernsey hospital on August 20, 1997.
