A WOMAN has opened up about how she gets trolled over her relationship with some cruelly claiming she is dating an “11-year-old”.
Content creator Brandyce, 31, is 6’1 and 25 stone, whilst her girlfriend Paris, 22, is just 4’11 and eight stone.
Not only are the couple criticised for their height and weight difference, but Brandyce has also been called a “cradle snatcher”.
Speaking to Truly, on an episode of Love Don’t Judge, the pair, who have been together for five years and make “spicy content” together, opened up on the reactions they often get.
This couple, who have an eight-year age gap and first met on Instagram, moved fast when they first got together.
Brandyce thought Paris was ‘beautiful’, and the then-18-year-old moved into her new partner’s home the day after they started talking – yes, you heard that right.
Whilst they are in a happy and committed relationship, Brandyce confessed: “People called me a cradle snatcher.”
Not only this, but Paris chimed in: “People thought I was 11 years old. People judge our relationship because of our height and weight difference.”
But Paris won’t listen to the haters, as she explained: “I like older women, I like bigger women. I can’t see myself dating someone short. I don’t feel like it looks right.
“I have nothing against a skinny woman but I prefer a woman with a little more meat on her. Thick thighs save lives.”
And that’s not all, as Paris even got Brandyce’s name tattooed on her chest just three months into the relationship.
The couple, who post “romantic play” content online and have gone viral countless times, are keen to prove that size don’t matter.
Paris shared: “I used to care about what people say, people say, ‘she’s too big’, ‘that’s too much weight’, ‘that’s nasty’. I feel like a lot of people have issues within themselves.”
