A MARRIED couple with more than 40 years between them has hit back at trolls who say the young woman is only after a visa and his money.
They say love knows no age – and one couple to preach this motto is Dave and Jackie, a US-based duo with a 42-year age gap.

Jackie, 27, originally from the Philippines, has been married to Dave, 42 years her senior, for a few years now, and regularly takes it to TikTok to share snaps and videos of the two.
But although they claim to be in love, not everyone believes Jackie has pure intentions.
With the average age difference for heterosexual couples being 2.3 years – the man is usually the older one – the TikTok-famous duo has left many questioning the authenticity of the relationship.
Under almost every clip Jackie and her 69-year-old husband have posted there are hundreds of comments by trolls who believe the young woman is in the marriage simply for the money and the Green card.
But despite the critique and negative remarks, the couple, who have more than 32,000 fans following their journey, continue to share short clips of their romantic story.
There are lots of sunny hikes, copious amounts of food and countless videos of them dancing together.
Followers and other social media users will also know that Jackie and Dave are not afraid to make fun of the age difference, with the couple even visiting the stores to stack up on ”diapers for grandpa”.
Hitting back at trolls for whom the age gap is too much, Dave said: ”I am 69-years-old. And to us, it doesn’t make a bit of difference.”
Their TikTok profile, which has more than a whopping 245,000 overall likes, even states: ”Love is endless, and love has no age limit.”
There are countless of comments people have left – but it isn’t all negative, as there are also plenty of those who support the relationship.

”I love you guys you are so nice and kind you seem so happy. One of my favorite couples,” one fan wrote.
Another agreed, saying: ”Age is just the number as long you love each other ,you too [two] are so blessed to have each other.”
”I can’t believe people are still harassing you about your age difference. You are a beautiful couple. Makes no difference. Correct!!” a third penned.
A woman who was also in a age gap relationship joined in: ”Happiness is the key… It’s not everyone who is after visa as they say…Am in my 30s my hubby in his 70s and we are happy.”
