Hi All, My wife has lost her Gmail password. She has my old email address, now closed, as a back up contact. We are now in a situation where we cannot access her emails which have a huge amount of family appointments etc in there. Any way around this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Common, that the same account is loaded/signed in on multiple devices, old phone perhaps? Was phone number added as recovery option?
