A 31-year-old bride, accused of being a ‘paedophile’ for marrying her youthful-looking wife, 29, announces pregnancy news.
A 31-year-old bride, Lauren Evans, has been in the spotlight after sharing her wedding photos with her wife, Hannah Kaye, who is 29.
The couple tied the knot in September and excitedly announced their pregnancy news soon after.
However, their happiness was overshadowed by negative comments online.
Bride criticized for marrying partner who looks like a 10-year-old boy
Lauren and Hannah met on Tinder and dated for two years before getting married.
The wedding was a joyful occasion, and they posted professional photos on social media to celebrate.
Unfortunately, some users reacted harshly to the images.
They accused Lauren of being a “paedophile” because Hannah looked much younger than her age.
This claim was surprising, especially since there is only a two-year age difference between them.
Lauren shared her feelings about the backlash.
She was hurt by the comments, stating that some people claimed it was cute for her son to walk her down the aisle, while others made cruel remarks about her relationship.
The couple faced a wave of online trolling that included comments questioning Hannah’s age and ability to marry.
Lauren said: “Some people said it was cute that my 10-year-old son was walking me down the aisle. Others said it was disgusting that I was kissing a young boy.”
In response to the abuse, Lauren explained that her wife has always looked younger than she is.
She noted that while she has undergone cosmetic procedures to enhance her appearance, Hannah’s youthful look is simply due to her genes.
Despite the hurtful remarks, Lauren expressed her love for Hannah and how happy they are together.
The controversial bride announces pregnancy
Recently, Lauren shared the exciting news with her followers: she is pregnant with triplets.
She posted a video of an ultrasound on Instagram, revealing her joy and hope for their growing family.
She included the hashtag #ivfsuccess in her post, highlighting that they underwent IVF treatment to conceive.
Hannah often carries ID and is frequently asked to prove her age when buying lottery tickets and energy drinks.
“The negativity exploded when we uploaded our wedding photos. But even before that, any photo of us together would attract nasty comments, because I look younger.”
She added: “Everyone has their opinion of my appearance, I’ve grown up with everyone having an opinion of me and how I look. I just don’t acknowledge any comments; I just block them.”
Challenges in parenthood journey
The couple had previously faced challenges in their journey to parenthood.
They traveled to Northern Cyprus for egg retrieval surgery as part of their IVF process.
In a heartfelt post, Lauren reflected on her late daughter, Amelia, expressing both joy and sorrow about her current pregnancy.
She mentioned that while they are excited about their triplets, the memories of losing Amelia are always present.
“It’s a bitter sweet day today, it breaks my heart each year that goes by and all the milestones missed with my daughter Amelia.
“She will definitely never be forgotten – but what scares me now is being pregnant and blessed with three beautiful babies growing inside me and having the same condition which killed my baby Amelia.
It brought so many flash backs and bad memories but all we can do is carry hope.
“Thinking of everyone who has lost a baby today.”
