I’m 23 and marrying a man twice my age – people say it’s messed up but I’m actually the mature one

The 23-year-old fitness model has hit back at cruel trolls who describe her relationship with a man “twice her age” as “spoiled”.

US Amira Rajab is engaged to fitness trainer Bryce Wood, 44, but denies the huge age difference is a red flag for their relationship.

In fact, the young blonde claims that she is actually the “adult” in their relationship – and when they met “many years ago”, neither of them knew the other’s age.

The couple had been engaged since July last year when Amira was just 21 years old.

Bryce constantly shows his support for Amira online by posting photos of her and commenting on her fitness competition photos.

Amira’s fans tell her that she is too young to be with her partner

“The best partner I could ever ask for!” I love you,” he wrote in a recent post where she mentioned finishing third in a bikini competition.

His rave reviews continue on his own page.

“Because every day is a blessing to spend time with you,” he wrote alongside a photo of them together.

And she had the same ones.

On a photo of the couple on the beach, she wrote: “I love spending life with you.”

And in others, she described him as “the best partner.”

But despite the obvious affection, people online refuse to back down from their criticism.

“I always think ‘awww’ but then I think what’s wrong that he can’t find someone his age?” one woman wrote on the video.

Another stated that “there’s always a bit of a red flag with older men.”

She insists they are soul mates and people don’t understand their relationship.

And people agreed: “Women with life experience see the red flags, but young women, unfortunately, don’t.”

“He was 21 when she was born,” another fan wrote.

One woman warned that divorce is expensive and one should “think before you buy.”

‘I did it. I’m 25 now and I got a huge bill from my lawyer at VDAY.”

One even asked why her partner was “looking for a younger woman.”

But Amira said that was not the case and added that they met organically and hit it off before realizing the age difference.

She asked her followers to “stop being so quick to judge.”

She says she’s more mature than him, so it works.

“My family is 100% supportive of my relationship because they know my fiancé.”

The glamor model shared a photo from her engagement and called it the “happiest day” of her life.

“I will love you forever, Bryce. I can’t wait to marry you,” she said.

Some people expressed their support for the couple or offered advice.

“As a couple with an 11 year age difference, here are some tips for you! Don’t tell anyone about the age difference because you’ll get commenters like that,” one woman said.

“I love you guys so much, you’re cute,” said another.
