  • Buffy and Tony are both diagnosed with Down syndrome and have been married for a decade. They live together with the assistance of a caregiver. The two have learned that marriage isn’t always easy, but their love can endure any test, like snoring. Buffy is 46 years old and Tony is 41.

    That dad was nearly crying. You can tell he had doubts in the past about her finding love, but now he’s just happy

      Not sure if you know this but people with Down Syndrome are very empathetic they actually very rarely get angry and have outburst they are very loving people

    I’m angry that so many disabled people can’t have this because they’re institutionalized or under a guardianship or otherwise have their legal rights taken away. It’s a crime against humanity that it’s allowed to happen.

    Oh my Goodness, this has given me such hope! Buffy ( By the way, a favourite old show of mine ) has got the most wonderful Father. I can barely let my two sons go a little even though I know as a parent it's good for them. You, sir are everything a wonderful Father should be, and the happiness of your little girl and her caring husband and friend is truly living! God bless you xx

    I am sat here in tears but they are very happy and emotional ones. I think Tony and Buffy could teach us all a thing or two. Their marriage makes me wish I could change places ,they are so loyal and loving and look after each other. This was a joy to watch and I wish them both a very happy future together, they are an amazing couple.xx

    Lock for every key, part of what we are here for is to find the other half of our soul.
    Marriage will always be work at times. But knowing the other person is with you, even if they disagree, it's yalls choice to work it out.
