Does our big age gap mean I might not inherit my husband’s pension? STEVE WEBB replies

My husband and I have been together for almost 40 years, although there is a significant age difference between us.

He is now in his early 90s and I in my late 60s, and the spectre of ill health is always worrying us.

We have been trying to find out about his and my pensions.

I have recently received my state pension, but only get around £540 a month as my last 10 to 12 working years were spent looking after my husband who had cancer twice.

He has a full pension based on about 40 years of contributions which is worth approximately £940
