Couples where the husband is older. Dear friend: star couples in which the man is younger

A woman lives in the world. She is already over 40, she divorced her husband, the children grew up and left the nest - they now have their own personal lives. It seems it's time to start knitting mittens, close for the winter apricot jam and slowly prepare to meet a comfortable old age.

But suddenly he appears on the horizon: a young, passionate and unbridled guy in love affairs, besides, he is not bad-looking!

Mutual interest, feelings flared up - a story from a romantic film. He carries her in his arms like a princess, does not notice her age, mimic wrinkles and a couple of extra pounds on her sides ... Everything is perfect! But time passes and one fine morning the young Apollo leaves his aging girlfriend.

Why does this happen, and how to make sure that a young man never wants to leave his beloved? Read more about this.

What pushes a woman into a relationship with a younger man? The desire to feel again how wings grow behind your back, and the earth leaves from under your feet? Attempts to jump into the last car and stop the passing of youth? Nostalgia for the first cloudless love?

Everyone has their own reasons. And despite social stereotypes, a romantic union where a woman is older than a man is not doomed to failure, but often has its advantages!

The woman takes care of herself

A young lover who wants to stun, seduce and knock down is the perfect motivation to change your style! Bright dresses instead of gray jeans, flowing hair instead of a sleek ponytail, red lipstick and arrows on the eyes! Cosmetologists, massage therapists, jogging in the morning - what passion and desire to please women just does not push.

And the man is happy! Next to a blooming woman, I want to strive only forward, move mountains, achieve goals, conquer new and new peaks for her sake.

It is easier for a man to realize

If the woman is older, has great experience in home improvement, relationships and social sphere, it is not a sin to prove herself in a leadership role. You can give a man advice or a hint, but just don’t do it in the tone of a formidable boss!

An adult woman is able to help a young partner even in career endeavors, unlike an inexperienced young beauty. But this should be done carefully, without exerting strong pressure.

Bright sex

It's not about acrobatic stunts or the absence of prohibitions, but about understanding desires! An experienced woman will say what she wants without hesitation, biting her lips and downcast eyes. Maybe sex in the car? Or a blowjob in a restroom of a restaurant? Or multiple orgasms in a row? She is no longer shy, but acts! And this initiative turns men on more than the face of the “Barbie doll” - and it doesn’t matter: the age difference is a year, 6 years or 26!

“A woman 10 years older than a man is not normal,” divorced or unmarried friends secretly whisper. And this is the usual reaction of people brought up in the Soviet Union. Do not listen to this gossip: evil tongues and bored women will always find a reason to discuss someone's life in an unpleasant way.

Famous actor Hugh Jackman and his wife have an age difference of 13 years. At first, the press reacted scandalously, asking the question: "Well, what did he find in this old woman?" But the noise died down, and the couple has been happily married for 23 years with two children.

Learn from each other

A significant age difference benefits both partners. A woman shares her wisdom acquired over the years and life experience, and the man brings "novelties" to the couple modern society and fresh ideas.

Do not be jealous of the young chosen one

Jealousy arises from self-doubt. Does it really make sense for an experienced, accomplished and harmonious woman to indulge in such girlish experiences? If the chosen one is nearby, then he gets pleasure from the relationship!

In order not to wind yourself up too much, spend more time together: attend events, get out of town for the weekend, meet friends.

Enjoy ease of relationship

A young partner will never reproach for frivolity, will not read morality and guide on the right path. Ease of attitude to life, freedom and emancipation - that's what awaits the "unequal" couple!

Don't be afraid to make plans for the future if this is "your" person

Alas, peer relationships are less successful - 53% of marriages break up after three to four years. The average duration of marriages, if the woman is older than the man, is up to 16 years. So don't be afraid to risk getting married again, move with him to another country, start a new life!

Have sex more often

An experienced woman without stupid sexual restrictions who knows where and in what position she wants in bed is a much more sensual lover than a twenty-year-old young girl who fakes orgasms and moans, like in porn movies.

A young lover - hot, passionate and hungry for sex, can satisfy the erotic fantasies of a partner all night long without getting tired.

Be open to sensual pleasures: if he is younger than you, then in sex this is definitely an advantage!

Despite the fact that 3-4 years is considered the optimal age difference between partners, you definitely have a chance to build a happy union under other conditions! Keep our tips in mind and read some inspiring stories!

They did it - you can too!

  • Salvador Dali and Gala - she was 12 years older, left Paris for a remote Spanish village for the sake of her young lover, and for 53 years she never regretted her decision;
  • Sergei Yesenin and Isendora Dukan - a romantic and mysterious relationship, where the partners were separated by 17 years;
  • Einstein and his first wife Milera Marich - the genius was 5 years younger, two children were born in marriage, and the woman was an inspiration for the scientist;
  • The first love of Honore de Balzac was a woman, 22 years older. She was his muse, adviser and friend!

Down with prejudice

A man younger by 8 years or 10? Is there a digital “chasm” between you that is so scary to accept? Or a 15 year age difference? A woman older than a partner is not normal? Will he go to a younger girl?

Breathe out and calm down! You are beautiful for your age and deserve some fun, frivolity and freedom of action! If you are covered by passion - give in to it and do not be afraid of anything.

Increasingly, there are couples where the woman is much older than the man.

Much is for 10-20 years.

Women over 40 very often write about the attention of young men to them, but they are skeptical about this attention. “It’s clear that he is looking for a mother for himself” or “does not want to invest, wants to be given everything at once.” That is, adult women often perceive themselves as a dubious object and see a non-sexual motive in the interest of young men, a desire to save energy and money. It's pretty embarrassing. And for the women themselves, and for young men who quite often fall in love with adult women.

However, sometimes relationships do start. But they end quickly. And if they do not end, women most often quickly go into the red. And men take off in plus. With older men, it doesn't happen as fast and it doesn't have to. What are the reasons?

The main and main reason that adult women quickly go into the red with young men is that women, even adults, do not have the skill to build relationships from a leadership role at all. Even on equal terms it turns out with great difficulty (in Europe it is already better). Basically, women are used to building relationships from below. They are guarded and they are led. A little girl or not a little.

The girl needs a dad. Even if it's her husband, he should be a bit of a father to her. And if a man is older than a woman and more status, the father's role is quite organic for him. This does not mean that he completely subjugates a woman, he delegates a lot to her, but the main word is his, the main leadership is his, he carries out the main guardianship, economically and politically. It's not that a woman is a completely infantile fool and only claps her eyes, they get rid of such women quickly, it's just that a woman sees in a man someone stronger and smarter than herself. This is so far a traditional picture for our latitudes that many women confuse the concepts of "older, more status man" and simply "man", they by default consider any man older and stronger than themselves (intellectually, morally), even if he is younger and smaller yet achieved.

This is a distorted view and leads a woman to a minus when a man is much younger. Please note that if a man is older and wealthier, and a woman looks at him a little from the bottom up, this, on the contrary, evens out the balance. Those who think that all people should always and in all situations communicate on an equal footing, regardless of any differences, are just as smart as those who want to take everything away from everyone and share it.

Speaking on equal terms with someone who is much more experienced than you is like talking about poetry with a philologist or about history with a historian, demanding equality of opinion. If you try to speak on an equal footing, the dialogue will not work out, and if you are aware of their great competence, you can get a useful conversation, and for both sides, since the specialist is also interested in a fresh, uncomplicated, unbanal look, but only if the interlocutor is aware of the difference and does not consider that "my grandmother said" is equivalent to "Academician Losev believed", both are interesting, but are integrated in different ways.

The same is true outside the professional sphere. If you are older, you have more experience in everyday life and in relationships, you have more material and social resources, your role in the politics and economy of the couple should be leading, the main one.

Approximately the same demotivation occurs in a couple where a woman is much older than a man, but behaves with him like a peer or even much younger than him.

Interestingly, this does not start right away. At first, while a woman is not too in love, she behaves normally, according to her age and social position. She is aware that in front of her is a younger and less experienced being, perhaps talented, charming and full of strength, but still less competent in everyday life and in the sphere of social relations. He remembers that behind her are various age stages, she was a student, and a specialist, and a boss, and a mother of a small child and a mother of a large one, had long serious relationship, experienced breaks, divorces, losses, and he has the mentality of a young man. Even if a man has a crown and he is convinced that at the age of 25 he is different from his peers, because he is much smarter, even if he is a sexist and thinks that a woman’s experience is not like a man’s and a woman at 45 has remained the same girl, he is everything Equally, at the beginning of the relationship, he is aware that in front of him is a lady of his mother's age and reflects this. He does not feel equal, although he may strive for equality SZ, that is, he hopes to be important and significant for this woman.

Equality and the height of the NW is correct, it is a balance. But if a woman paired with a young man does not take a leadership role, she loses her balance and goes into the red. More precisely, it can go into default. The main thing is that a man in such a pair always goes to the plus, because he ceases to respect such a woman, even if he does not admit to himself.

I already wrote that adult women often speak to their young partners in childish voices, they give them funny children's nicknames, like a frog, a duckling or a pig. Such women are certainly called Anyutka, Katyushka, Marishka and Manyurka. That is, even in couples with peers, there is not as much derogation in addressing women as in couples where the woman is 20 years older. When I tried to deal with this phenomenon and asked those women, one and all stated that their young men just really want to dominate, young men are so desperately rushing to the top, trying to look older and more serious and do not want to deprive them of such joy.

It is with boys that adult women turn into old girls, both externally and in essence, while with older men they behave appropriately for their age. It is understandable. With older men, even at their forties they feel young compared to his fifty (if a man is not a lover of young girls, but is satisfied with a difference of ten years), and with a boy they want to look younger than he is, and if he is thirty, that's it. almost grown-up women claim that he looks forty, and she looks thirty-five at forty-five, that is, five years younger than him. That's how many complex digital perturbations go on in a woman's head just to hide the difference. Paradox?

Initially, a young guy falls in love with an adult lady. He likes that she is older, he likes her look from above, her seriousness or philosophical irony, security, not helplessness, he likes everything about her, including wrinkles that make her face more mature, and an authoritative tone, everything that emphasizes their difference , he likes it very much. Otherwise, he wouldn't fall in love. If he wanted a peer, he would have looked for a peer. If he wanted to dominate, he would look for an inexperienced young girl. Most young men, having gone into plus, tell their women that they actually want a girl of the same age and fell in love with her quite by accident. Yes, it looks like a plus. It seems to them that it was an accident, and now they already want a peer, because they are disappointed in adult women who behave like fools or hysterics. But initially it was different. He fell in love, of course, not by chance, it was much easier for him to have an affair with a peer, but he chose an older woman.

And then she began to hide their difference, deciding that they had fallen in love with her. despite age. This is the main reason for the inadequate behavior of such women. They despise their peers. They think that their peers are worse than young ones. They consider themselves exceptions (!), thanks to the crown, of course. She is always the exception. Yes, she is forty-five, but she is 1) beautiful 2) sexy, so she is an exception to the rule. And her peers are purses, they cannot be of interest to a young man, and she does not want to have anything to do with them. She stands out from their row (the key here is that she stands out from any row, always, the crown makes in any group, even in age, even in gender, even in professional, feel better than the same).

And an adult woman begins to prove to everyone around that she looks younger than her man. Talk to these women, they will almost always say that their boyfriend looks older than them, especially when he is already in the black. These women consider themselves exceptions, that's the problem. If they were ordinary, normal adult women, they would behave like that, they would not be ashamed of their age, they would not try to stand out from the ranks of their peers, they would look adequate and everything would be fine. But they see the young man's attention as fodder for their own (!) self-esteem, instead of understanding that he just likes her age group. But phew, this is so sad, you can’t gild the crown with this.

Noticing that his woman wants to feel like a girl, the guy tries to give her such an opportunity. He begins to dominate and call her a pig, he wants to emphasize that for him she is a baby. Well, the more she is a baby, the more noticeable her gray hair and wrinkles, by the way. For her forties, she looks great, but for eighteen ... understandable. That is, women, trying to level out age, emphasize it and highlight it, as those who want to hide a big nose under naive curls make their nose several times larger.

The main rule of harmony: create an organic context for quality, don't hide it, don't forget it.

Accept age misalliance and find advantages in it, emphasize it and do not be shy.

An organic context for adult appearance is adult behavior. No childish voices, short skirts, helpless wave of eyelashes, no "father loves his girl?" which grown ladies love to say to their young husbands. (I still remember one lady who was 60+ and she used exactly these words to address her young lover).

If you don't know, you probably won't believe that this is exactly what many older women say. Especially predators in this sense are indicative. After some time of relationship, an adult lady turns into a child with a predator. She did not turn with her older husband, but with a young predator - yes. The predator differs from just a young man in that they fall in love with him, on average, more strongly. And the older the woman in love, the more she turns into a little girl. For non-predators, the same thing happens if the woman is much older and in love.

In general, I would like to say the following. If your man is younger (plus or minus 5 years is the same age), never forget about the difference and do not try to hide it, emphasize so that you don’t notice it, be proud of the difference, love your age, don’t pretend to be a girl, don't turn him into an old man. Otherwise, soon you will begin complexes and fall into the red.

And young men wanted to say. Don't play daddies out of yourself, please don't call your adult women Manyushkas and rats, it's better to play the real difference beautifully. You don’t need to call your lady by her first name and patronymic and “you”, though ... But don’t at least make little fools out of them. They will begin to annoy you yourself when you convince them that you seriously consider them your little ones at their fifty-five years.

Have men had relationships with women 10+ older? Women falling in love with guys much younger? How did the relationship develop?

Today, September 23, Ivan Krasko celebrates his birthday. On the eve of the holiday, the artist made himself a truly “royal gift” - a wedding with his former student, who is 60 years younger than him. This caused a lot of buzz. However, such a difference in age is no longer nonsense today. the site remembered other couples where the spouse is much older than their soul mate.

Oleg Tabakov and Marina Zudina

Age difference - 30 years

Oleg Pavlovich went to Marina, breaking off a 35-year marriage with actress Lyudmila Krylova. Prior to this, the connection between the venerable director and the actress who was beginning at that time was a secret and had lasted for 10 years. Although Zudina did not want conflict in the first Tabakov family, their romance should have received some kind of logical continuation. The actor chose Marina. His children from his first marriage - Anton and Alexandra - painfully experienced this divorce, even refused to communicate with their father. Many predicted the collapse of this union.

Nevertheless, the marriage of Tabakov and Zudina is already 20 years old, they have two beautiful children - Pavel and Maria, and their family is considered one of the strongest in the domestic show business.

Lena studied there in her fifth year. Then the artist for the first time looked at her with interest - he noted how she had matured and prettier. Invited to visit for mushroom soup ...

Today, Elena is not only a companion, but also the director of the TV presenter.

Dmitry Dibrov and Polina Nagradova

Age difference - 30 years

The couple met 8 years ago during a beauty contest, where 17-year-old Polina from Rostov won the Miss Body title. The young age did not bother the 47-year-old TV presenter at that time, he began to actively seek her favor, showered her with flowers and gifts. In 2009, Dibrov and Nagradova signed and got married. As the spouses assure, their age is not a hindrance to their happiness, and they do not pay attention to the vicious attacks of the public.

In this union, three little boys have already been born. Polina devotes all her time to their education. By the way, Dmitry has two more children from previous marriages. Recall that Polina is already the fourth wife of Dibrov. By the way, the previous wife was also 26 years younger than the journalist.

Alexander Gordon and Nozanin Abdulvasieva

Age difference - 30 years

TV presenter Alexander Gordon and the granddaughter of Valery Akhadov, a famous director, honored worker of arts of Tajikistan and Russia, Nozanin Abdulvasieva first met on the set of the film "Clever Man". The novel developed rapidly, and soon the couple signed. As 21-year-old Nozanin assures, she likes that her husband is older: “It’s easier to communicate with an adult man who has already decided in life and set priorities.” The girl's family also easily accepted her son-in-law.

By the way, in the history of Gordon's three previous marriages, he already had the experience of living together with a woman much younger than himself - Nina Schipilova. And the main reason for the divorce from Nina was precisely the 30-year age difference.

Alexander Gradsky and Marina Kotashenko

Age difference - 31 years

legendary musician and famous model together since 2003. As for most of our list, this is far from the first union for Alexander Borisovich. Before Marina, the singer was married three times.

Gradsky saw Marina on the street and immediately decided to approach. Did the woman recognize the rock legend? Gradsky says no. But a few days later she called on the mobile phone left to her ...

The couple claims that in 12 years of relations between them there has not been a single quarrel, despite the difficult temper of Alexander Borisovich, so the doom of marriages between people with big difference aged is a myth.

Andrei Konchalovsky and Yulia Vysotskaya

Age difference - 36 years

In 1996, fate gave the director, who already had four broken marriages behind him, a meeting with a 23-year-old actress from Minsk, Yulia Vysotskaya. By the way, Andrei Sergeevich himself admits that his character is not a gift. And, if he were much younger, it is unlikely that their marriage with Yulia turned out to be so long and lasting. But the experience acquired in previous relationships saves from many mistakes.

Today, the couple are experiencing a tragedy - their daughter Maria fell into a coma in 2013 as a result of an accident. This became a serious test for the marriage. As the media assured, the family almost broke up. Today, the girl's condition is better, and Andrei and Yulia assure that all the rumors about a possible divorce are not true.

Bari Alibasov and Victoria Maksimova

Age difference - 40 years

The famous music producer, outrageous Bari Alibasov married his assistant Victoria Maximova in 2013. At that time, the creator of the Na-Na group was 66 years old. And the girl is only 26. Not without a scandal. Alibasov's son, Bari Alibasov Jr., right on the air of the program where his father announced his engagement, called Victoria "an impudent and cunning bitch." Allegedly, her motive for marriage is profit. As you know, Alibasov is not a poor person. It is also known that for Bari this is already the sixth marriage, and all five previous ones did not last long. However, the young have been together for two years now. You look, and Victoria will become for Bari his “swan song”.

As we can see, a big difference is far from uncommon, and not an obstacle to family happiness. True, Ivan Krasko, with his 60-year lead, has not yet been surpassed by anyone. We wish Ivan Ivanovich personal happiness and years life!

The huge age difference (27 years!) Between Alla Pugacheva and Maxim Galkin does not prevent them from being happily married and raising two charming kids. This is perhaps the most famous example in our country. But not the only one. Relationships like this are no surprise. There are many star couples in the world where the wife is older than the husband.

1 Emmanuel Macron (40 years old) and Brigitte Macron (64 years old)

The difference is 24 years.

Of course, this French couple falls short of the age difference between Pugacheva and Galkin, but it causes no less talk. The love story of the current president of France and his wife is a ready-made script for a Hollywood movie. They met when Macron was only 15 years old. Brigitte, 39, taught him literature at a lyceum in the small town of Amiens. The schoolboy immediately fell in love with his teacher, he was not even embarrassed by the fact that the lady was married. What is she? She also liked the judicious and intelligent young man beyond his years. To hush up the brewing scandal, Emmanuel's father sent his son to study at an elite metropolitan gymnasium. But the distance of love is not a hindrance: the couple corresponded for a long time, and a few years later Brigitte divorced and came to her lover in Paris. Since then, they have always been there, and it is to his wife, as Macron admits, that he owes his success in the political field. By the way, Brigitte has three children from her first marriage and already 7 grandchildren, with whom the head of state is happy to tinker.

2 Lera Kudryavtseva (46 years old) and Igor Makarov (30 years old)

The difference is 16 years.

The well-known TV presenter hid her relationship with hockey player Igor Makarov for a long time. Still, after all, the new lover turned out to be only three years older than Kudryavtseva's son. But the difference in the age of love is not a hindrance. The lovers got married and are approaching a wooden wedding (five-year anniversary).

3 Megan Mark (36) and Prince Harry (33)

The age difference is 3 years.

Harry's fiancée is indeed older than him. But usually royal people marry girls younger, well, or at least the same age, as Prince William did (although Kate is still six months older than him). But Harry, as you know, is not exactly a typical prince. A rebel and joker, he very often went against public opinion and committed outrageous acts that shocked his crowned grandmother, Elizabeth II. At the same time, Markle's age is not the biggest problem. After all, she is an American, a mulatto, and she also managed to be married. But all these shortcomings do not bother Harry a little. And most of Her Majesty's subjects, too. Some even say that only such a girl "with experience" can cope with a reckless prince.

4 Hugh Jackman (49) and Deborra-Lee Furness (62)

The difference is 13 years.

The then-novice actor Jackman met his wife on the set of the Australian TV series Correlli. He played a criminal, and Deborra - a prison psychologist. In a word, the story is not at all romantic, but it ended well. Two weeks after the couple started dating, the actor realized that he wanted to spend the rest of his life with this woman. True, he decided to make an offer to his beloved only after four months. After 22 years family life the spouses are still happy, Hugh became a superstar, Deborra takes care of the house, children (the couple adopted a boy and a girl), and when there is free time, she starred in TV shows.

5 Yana Rudkovskaya (43 years old) and Evgeni Plushenko (35 years old)

The difference is 8 years.

It would seem that a well-known producer and Olympic champion in figure skating must live in perfect different worlds. But fate decreed otherwise. When Rudkovskaya's ward, singer Dima Bilan, was preparing a number for Eurovision 2008, she got the idea to invite Plushenko to take part in the performance. The number turned out to be spectacular, Bilan won the competition, and Yana and Evgeny found their happiness. In January 2013, their son Alexander was born, who was jokingly nicknamed Gnome Gnomych.

6 Anna Netrebko (46 years old) and Yusif Eyvazov (40 years old)

The difference is 6 years.

Our opera star met the Azerbaijani tenor in 2014 in Rome, where both of them sang in the production of Manon Lescaut. Relationships quickly developed from official to romantic. And the very next year, the couple played a magnificent wedding, to which the entire Russian beau monde was invited. For both, this is the first marriage, however, Netrebko has a son, Thiago Arua. Yusif became very friends with the boy, and now on Instagram you can watch touching family photos of opera celebrities.

7 Eva Mendes (43) & Ryan Gosling (37)

The difference is 6 years.

As is often the case, the star couple took their relationship from the silver screen to real life. In 2011, they starred in the drama A Place in the Sun, after which they started dating. And although the actors are not scheduled, they are quite happy with this state of affairs. They have been living together for almost seven years and have two daughters. Eva, known for her role in the film "Removal Rules: The Hitch Method", is still completely devoted to her family and is not thinking about returning to the cinema. But her husband, twice an Oscar nominee, is actively filming. His latest work is the continuation of the legendary fantasy action movie Blade Runner. And ahead is the role of the first man to walk on the moon - astronaut Neil Armstrong.

8 Shakira (41) and Gerard Pique (31)

The difference is 10 years.

The singer and the famous Spanish football player playing in the Barcelona club were born on the same day, February 2, but only with a difference of 10 years. They met in 2010 before the World Cup in South Africa. Shakira was entrusted with the Mundial anthem, and Gerard participated in the filming of her video. At first, the couple hid their relationship, but the ubiquitous paparazzi still managed to catch them. I had to officially declare my love to the world. Now celebrities have two sons. True, in October everyone was excited by the news that Shakira and Pique broke up. Allegedly, the reason was the excessive jealousy of the football player, he even forbade his soulmate to appear in the video with men. But, fortunately, this rumor was not confirmed.

9 Aishwarya Rai (44) and Abhishek Bachchan (42)

The difference is 2 years.

The fact that the wife is older than her husband is not quite typical for conservative India. And if the spouse is also much more successful, then there is room for gossip. But one of the most beautiful women in the world (the Miss World crown was awarded to her in 1994) Aishwarya Rai was not embarrassed. Her chosen one was actor Abhishek Bachchan, a representative of one of the most respected families in Bollywood. His father is the legendary Amitabh Bachchan, famous in our country for his role in the film "Revenge and the Law." Interestingly, the love between Ash (as her fans call her) and Abhishek did not arise immediately. They starred in several films before "taking a closer look" at each other. Parents fully approved the choice of their son and accepted Aishwarya as their own. In 2011, an addition took place in the family of actors. Aishwarya Rai gave birth to a daughter named Aaradhya.

It is more common for us when in a marriage or relationship a man is older than a woman. But women who marry a much younger man claim to have discovered the secret of happiness. Maybe you should take a closer look at these couples?

Tina Kandelaki

Presenter and producer Tina Kandelaki was married for a long time to her peer Andrei Kodrakhin, one of the owners of the Ascon clinic. But in 2010 they divorced, and in 2014 Tina married Vasily Brovko, who is 15 years younger than her. The host for a long time hid the name of her husband and the very fact of the wedding, only thanks to the ring on her finger did the fans know that everything was in order with the personal life of the star, but everything finally became clear in May 2016. Thanks to Twitter.

Britney Spears

Britney Spears, who made the whole world hum Baby One More Time, is no longer a baby, she is 36, she has a not very successful marriage with Kevin Federlane and a string of novels (including Justin Timberlake!) Her new boyfriend Sam Asgari is 24 years, she recently touchingly congratulated him on his birthday on Instagram. Sam calls her "the most beautiful woman in the world", and from their joint photos you can make a calendar for Valentine's Day.

Lera Kudryavtseva

When the presenter Lera Kudryavtseva married hockey player Igor Makarov, she probably could not think how many interesting things she would hear from people about their age difference. Lera at that time was 41 years old, and the groom was 28, last year they celebrated their fifth wedding anniversary. During this time, not a single interview was without a question about their marriage, and somehow the couple even recorded a video in which Lera appeared in the form of an old woman (thanks special applications!) Rumors about their divorce regularly appear in the press, haters rejoice, but so far without reason.

Yana Rudkovskaya

Many questions about why he chose an older woman were asked to the figure skater Evgeni Plushenko. Evgeny is 35 years old, and his wife, TV presenter and producer Yana Rudovskaya, is 7 years older. Evgeny constantly repeats that it’s not about age, but about how well people are together and talks about home “nicknames: his wife calls him Kotofey, and he calls her Kotofeevna.
