Speaking to CNN, Anthony explained that the pair haven’t been matching every day of their 52-year marriage – they took up square dancing a few years ago, and decided to coordinate their clothes whenever they danced.

The matching outfits have become their signature, and their friends look forward to seeing what they’re going to wear.

They even give Anthony a preview every morning:

I wake up to text messages saying, “Good morning! We hope you have a good day!” along with the ‘outfit of the day’.

As for how Fran and Ed have reacted to going viral – well, they’re delighted. Anthony Skyped them to tell them about the tweet, after which they sent their morning photo:

The text read, “Good morning from your famous grandparents.”

Bless.
