A Love Beyond Limits

The young Stephen Hawking met Jane Wilde at a New Year’s Eve party in 1963. Stephen, known for his groundbreaking work in theoretical physics, found his match in Jane, a literature student. Despite his diagnosis with ALS in 1963, which gave him only a few years to live, their love blossomed.

They married in 1965 and had three children: Robert, Lucy, and Timothy. Jane became Stephen’s unwavering pillar of strength, supporting him through his declining health and skyrocketing career. Their story was brought to life in the 2014 film “The Theory of Everything,” which won multiple awards.
