A fitness influencer has hit back at critics of her relationship with a man 42 years her senior.
Keisha Louise, 18, accused haters of being “jealous” of her romance with her 60-year-old boyfriend, Dimitrios, as reported by The Sun.
The couple regularly share videos of themselves on TikTok at the gym together.
Having bonded over a love of fitness, Keisha and Dimitrios began dating in early 2022 and have been together for just over a year and-a-half.
While Keisha might have been of age when got together, it hasn’t stopped their relationship from coming under intense scrutiny on social media.
Trolls regularly target their videos, leaving cruel comments about the couple – claiming that their being together is “wrong”.
“This is really how money can buy happiness,” one user said, accusing Keisha of being a “gold digger”.
The couple have responded to those who refuse to accept their relationship on multiple occasions.
In a recent live video on the social media platform, Dimitrios accused them of being “jealous”.
His other half did the same, brutally replying to some of the most hurtful comments on their videos.
Responding to a cruel message about Dimitrios needing to be “locked up”, she wrote: “It’s not illegal what I’m doing. If it was illegal and of concern, [police] would be snooping around.”
“Or as you say, would’ve locked him up,” she added.
On another video, she wrote: “[I] was never his daughter’s friend. We met and what’s the problem?”
Rather than hide her relationship, Keisha has shared extra details about it, uploading videos of their day-to-day lives – garnering support from a number of followers with similar experiences.
“19 years between me & my partner we [have] been together 11 years. Best 11 years of my life!” one user commented.
“Love hits you at any age. I found my guy through gaming. He is a lot older but we just click. Wish you two all the best,” another wrote.
Others questioned why people were so against the relationship when the couple are clearly in love.
“Literally don’t understand the hate. If you’re both happy, who cares?!” one said.
