For the first time since they tied the knot on 14 March 1953, Bob and Nancy Shellard could not spend their anniversary together due to the coronavirus outbreak.

The Shellards, who hail from Connecticut, US, could not visit his wife at her nursing home this year because of coronavirus precautions, which restrict visitations across the state, through at least April, HuffPost reported.
