In a 2018 interview with Town & Country, Sarah opened up about the age gap, stating: "I do not want to be defined by who I share my bed, my home, my soul with.

“My choices in life have been unconventional, and that's my business. 

“But I do want to live responsibly and truthfully without hiding. 

“It's complicated, because there is a lot of hate in this world, and a lot of good can come from quote-unquote normalizing something for people who don't see it as normal. 

“Our relationship represents a certain amount of hope and risk. 

“Maybe there's something brave in it. 

“Maybe it encourages others to make brave choices. What else can I say? We love each other."
