Her boyfriend, Riq, is 57-years-old, and the couple’s huge age gap has left people open-mouthed, with some pretty horrified.
But the couple, both of whom are from the US, aren’t bothered by what trolls say about their age gap, as they confessed that they are “happy”.
Posting online, Bay revealed that her “husband”, who she describes as her “boo” is actually older than her parents.
In a recent video shared on social media, the couple filmed themselves posing for a short clip.
Riq wore a white vest, beige pair of cargo trousers and a baseball cap, and proudly flexed his muscles.
By his side stood his younger girlfriend – Bay, a beautiful blonde teenager.
Bay cuddled up to her man, who she refers to as her “partner for life”, as she hung onto his arm and posed in a pair of cycling shorts.
In another video, Bay explained that haters will often say to her: “You’re too young for him.”
Similarly, the blonde beauty suggested that trolls will say to her man: “You’re too old for her.”
But Bay confessed that she doesn’t take the comments to heart, as she explained: “39 years between us but we get along so well. We know how to have fun.”
Bay also claimed: “Haters hate but we’re happy.”
She then advised the keyboard warriors: “Y’all need to chill.”
