Someone didn’t watch the Surviving R Kelly documentary.
This is quite something.
A grandmother who found love with a teenager 53 years younger than her has told how “every day is a whirlwind.”
Almeda and Gary Hardwick married in 2016, two weeks after meeting at her son Robert’s funeral.
The couple had sex for the first time on their wedding night and previously described each other as “wonderful lovers.”
“It was wonderful, beyond my wildest dreams,” revealed Gary. “She really is my dream woman and the physical side of our relationship couldn’t be better.”
Here is the plot twist.
This is a young woman compared to who he has dated before.
Almeda and Gary, who previously dated a woman of 77 – tied the knot in a ceremony that he arranged for just $200 in six days in 2016.
After marrying the pair moved into Almeda’s house with one of her grandsons who is three years older than her new husband.
Soon after, Lisa asked them both along to a family meal at the nearby Chuck E. Cheese’s pizza restaurant.
“He was just as I remembered,” said Almeda. “That smile, those good looks. We were both too nervous to eat and at one point he fell over his chair.”
She recalled: “I just came out with it and said to him, ‘Look, I’m 71 and you’re 17. Am I too old for you?’ He squeezed my hand, grinned and replied: ‘Age is just a number.”’
What a time to be alive.
