My fiancé and I have a 22-year age gap – he’s older than my mum but we’re already planning another baby together
A WOMAN dating a man older than her mum insists their age gap relationship is the healthiest she’s ever had.
Brianna Hoffman, 28, is smitten with Craig, 50, after meeting at her work when he was a customer.
The couple, who have a two-year-old son, are engaged to get married and want to have another baby together.
Brianna also has a 10-year-old daughter from a previous relationship.
Despite Craig initially catching Brianna’s eye in the strip club where she worked, their romance blossomed and she’s never been happier.
She says: “I’ve always liked men a little older. My daughter’s dad was two years older, which, when we were 16 and 18, seemed like a lot.
“My following boyfriend was eight years older and now Craig is 22 years older.
“The best thing about being in a relationship with an older man is I feel like they’re more mature and understanding and easier to talk to.
“They know what they want and are genuinely ready and wanting to commit to having one partner.
“It’s a little bit of struggle because we grew up in different eras in time.
“He doesn’t understand my references sometimes. Sometimes I wonder what it’ll be like when I’m 50 and he’s 72.”
Brianna adds: “My family was pretty understanding.
“My mum was a little shocked because Craig is older than her by a couple years.
“She wondered what his intentions really were I guess.
“But now they’re good friends. My dad never cared because his wife is 12 years younger than him so I guess that he couldn’t really judge.”
Brianna regularly shares clips about her family life on TikTok (@briizzleeee) and Instagram (@Briihoffman).
