Inside Spain: A country of singletons, old mums and frozen eggs

Spanish society has changed immensely in a generation, and perhaps most evidently when it comes to getting married and having children. The latest report from the National Institute of Statistics (INE) reveals that in the last three years Spain has gained 1.2 million single people but only 105,000 married people. Among those over 16 - the minimum legal age to tie the knot in Spain - the married population remains the biggest population group.
