With this, Rifca beats the record of an unnamed 26-year-old from Rotherham, Yorks who had till now, been the world’s youngest grandmother. Her daughter, 12, gave birth in 1999.
Mum-of-two Rifca Stanescu was 12 when she had her first child Maria. According to her, she urged her daughter not to follow her example — but Maria gave birth to son Ion while only 11. Maria left to get married when she was ten and her baby six months later.
Rifca had married jewellery seller Ionel Stanescu when she was 11 and he was 13.
Cuddling her grandson Ion, now two, she said: “I am happy to be a grandmother but wished more for Maria.”
