Detective Inspector Chris Ahearn said the couple’s daughter raised the alarm with police and she was “extremely upset”.
He said officers found the body of Robyn Beever, 82, inside the garage of the home.
Her husband, Maxwell Beever, was also found at the home and taken to the Gold Coast University Hospital, where he remains under police guard.
