    A Reddit user wrote: “Less about her and mostly about him. 

    “I could almost ignore the age gap until seeing that she’s always with him now and doesn’t seem to have a job after quitting […] her [hostess] job. 

    “The power imbalance is uncomfortable to think about. If he’s not planning on settling down with her then he’s being irresponsible towards her.”

    Another Redditor commented: “Listen, it truly doesn’t matter how cool someone seems. They all go for the young Insta models if given the chance.”

    As a visual editor in the News team, I look for the most interesting pictures and comments to make each post interesting and informative through images, so that you aren't reading only blocks of text. I joined Bored Panda not that long ago, but in this short amount of time I have covered a wide range of topics: from true crime to Taylor Swift memes (my search history is very questionable because of that).In my freetime, I enjoy spending time at the gym, gaming, binging Great British Bake Off and adding yet another tattoo artist that I would love to get a tattoo from to my pinterest board.
