‘She completes me’: Couple with 37-year age gap hit back at trolls
A US man, 25, continues to defend his relationship to a 62-year-old woman after the couple receive hate from online trolls about their 37-year age gap.
A US couple, who has gone viral for their 37-year age gap, continues to defend their love.
Cheryl, 62, and Quran McCain, 25, first met in 2012 when they worked at their local fast food restaurant Dairy Queen in Rome, Georgia.
The two lost contact for a while but reconnected in November 2020 when Quran ran into Cheryl while she was working as a cashier at a convenience store, the New York Post reports.
The pair began dating that year and quickly went viral on TikTok when they began posting videos about their love story and life together.
Cheryl (@oliver6060) now has 4.1 million followers on TikTok while Quran (@kingqurannewpage) has 3 million followers. They have even created an OnlyFans account for their raunchier videos.
The controversial couple have received constant hate from online trolls, but have also gathered a large group of supporters.
The lovebirds were married in 2021 during a small ceremony that was live streamed to more than 20,000 people.
But despite years of online fame, the couple constantly feel the need to defend their relationship.
“We may get hate for being in love, but I wouldn’t trade this love we have for anything on this planet. I found my happy place and it’s you,” Cheryl captioned a recent TikTok video.
The short clip, which gathered 1 million views in a day, shows the couple laughing and cuddling in front of a backdrop covered in red and pink hearts with a song titled I Don’t Care playing.
Quran also post videos acknowledging their detractors and questions that the couple get about their relationship. He recently shared a video of the couple smiling together.
“Why do you go so hard for someone who is 37 years older than you?” Quran wrote over the video.
“I wanna feel alive don’t even wanna die anymore,” he responded to the question with a lyric from Logic’s song 1-800-273-8255.
The song is heard in the video and is titled after the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline phone number, which has since been changed to 988.
Quran’s video, which was captioned “She completes me,” went viral with 1.4 million views and a mixture of rude and supportive comments.
The married couple received a new wave of hate when they began sharing their desires to have a child together.
Cheryl has seven children in their 30s and 40s who have given her 17 grandchildren, and hopes to have her eighth with her new hubby.
The pair tried to get pregnant on their own but decided to turn to surrogacy or adoption due to Cheryl’s age.
According to their most recent videos, the McCains are still struggling to adopt. Just last month Quran shared a TikTok video of himself crying and claiming that people were taking advantage. He pleaded that he just wants to find a genuine surrogate.
But despite their struggles to have a child and the barrage of negativity, the couple appears to remain madly in love.
The McCains also aren’t the only controversial couple with a questionable age gap.
A man who is 16 years older than his wife is being accused by trolls of marrying a woman who looks “exactly like his daughter.”
