To all the comments saying they're having sex, why can't they just be good friends? If both their spouses passed away, they may just be keeping eachother company since, they might not have anyone else to relate/talk to.
Edit: Wow, I didn't think this would get so popular, lol. Thank you all for the upvotes and awesome comments!
So what if they are "boning"? Just because their spouses died, doesn't mean they have to be celibate the rest of their lives.
And that is a big assumption. Maybe they are just friends who have found comfort in each other in their old years. Physical attraction becomes less relevant as you age. They have known each other for years and know and understand the other better than a random stranger would.
My grandma had a person in her life like this. He wasn’t exactly her partner and they didn’t give each other labels or live together, but he acted like her partner in most ways—spent much of the week together, went to the movies, helped her host card-playing nights, took her to appointments when she got sick, was there with her til the end, and still keeps in contact with my family. They were both such a comfort to each other after each were widowed many years prior.
