36 YEAR AGE GAP COUPLE MISTAKEN FOR DAD AND DAUGHTER

A couple from Bristol have told that they are often mistaken for father and daughter because of their huge 36 year age gap. Despite being born three decades after her 74-year-old husband Keith, 38-year-old Michaela Manning is madly in love with her older man. The loved-up pair met on a cruise five years ago and tied the knot nine months later. Now the couple have a son together, Alex, four, and Michaela insists that their 36-year age gap doesn't hold them back.
