PRINCE PHILIP, 99 YEARS OLD
Prince Philip was born from two royal families, one from Greece and one from Denmark. The royal mix may be to thank for his marriage to the long-reigning Queen of England, Queen Elizabeth the Second. The now 99-year-old Prince Philip has lived a life in the limelight next to the Queen and he still attends Royal events alongside his wife. He has been her constant companion and confidant through a lifetime of challenges and victories.
JERRY LEE LEWIS, 85 YEARS OLD
Jerry Lee Lewis grew up in a religious family that was particularly wealthy, although, they did sell their house to buy Jerry Lee Lewis a piano, strangely enough. This may very well be what started the beginning of the now 85-year-old’s road to fame through the love of music. Jerry Lee Lewis is undeniably a legend in the Rock-n-Roll genre of music and he earned a name for himself after he collaborated with his cousin J.W. Brown to write and sell a song to the president of Sun Records, Sam Philips. Additionally, Jerry Lee Lewis is not just a Rock-n-Roll legend, but he is also a pioneer that changed the genre by incorporating the piano. Despite his success in music, he has divorced a surprising six times after first marrying at the young age of 16. However, the 85-year-old legend has overcome a series of both tragedies and troubles with alcoholism and losing two of his sons in separate tragic accidents. This living legend is still performing today, to prove an inspiration to anyone that is battling to overcome loss and addiction.
