This Morning fans were overjoyed to see the return of their favourite lockdown couple on the show after the pair were finally reunited at the airport.
During Tuesday’s instalment of the popular ITV morning show, 82-year-old Iris and her husband Mohamed Ibriham, 36, returned to the iconic blue couch after they tied the knot in November last year.
Following their whirlwind romance, the happy couple were unable to live out the start of their marriage together when Mohamed’s visa was delayed, meaning he was unable to join his wife in the UK.
Nearly one year later, his visa was finally granted and the pair joined Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield to reassure viewers who have followed their journey that they are now happier than ever.

Blonde bombshell Holly began by asking how Iris managed to cope without her loving partner for so long while he was forced to remain in Cairo without her.
The newlywed confessed how she was “living day to day, living on a knife edge really, you know. Just talking, messaging morning, noon and night, that got boring. I thought, ‘When is he going to come over?’”
When Phillip asked her where she was when she found out his visa had been granted, the loving wife revealed: “[I was] In Tesco, doing my shopping, in the fruit and veg aisle.
“Tears just poured down, I couldn’t stop crying. One of the assistants said, ‘Are you alright?’ and I said, ‘Yes, I’m very, very happy’.”

Now that they have reunited, the pair have admitted that their sex life has been electric since her husband settled into life in the UK.
Iris explained: “Yes, our time isn’t restricted, so we don’t need to ration ourselves. [The magic] will never go away, it’ll never be destroyed.
“Anyone who says to me, ‘How do you find love?’ [I say] you don’t look for love, it finds you.”

But their love hasn’t come without its fair share of complaints as many viewers have argued that Mohamed will take advantage of his new bride.
Holly put these claims to the happily married husband, who confessed: “Some people attack us. Why? I am working… I have business administration.
“I’m not with Iris because I need something … I am a rich man, I have a bungalow in Cairo.
“We will be together forever,” he reassured viewers at home.
