Ethel Caterham just turned 117 — the world’s oldest living person — and she’s still crushing it, recalling her meeting with young King Charles, surviving COVID-19 at 110, and even driving until age 97. Born in 1909, she’s lived through history, from Edward VII’s reign to today, traveled globally with her military husband, started a nursery school in Hong Kong, and outlived her own 104-year-old sister. While not the record holder (that’s a French woman at 122), Ethel’s life is pure inspiration — proof that longevity, joy, and adventure can last well beyond 100.
