There are multiple perspectives on this. If I were her dad, I would be wanting to shoot the 92 year old, although if he's wealthy, I might be persuaded into waiting until 1 minute after the ceremony!
On the other hand, I guess it's common for some older men to be attracted to younger women. Still, couldn't he be hitting on some hot 70 year old who's 22 years younger than him? 75 years younger is not a big age difference for trees, but for humans? Hmmmm.
