A 25-year-old Kenyan man simply identified as Muima, has revealed his intention to marry Thereza, 85.
The couple shared their love story and decision to marry in a new YouTube video by Afrimax English.
According to the Tuko website, the couple met while Muima and some of his friends were looking for a place to live. They ended up renting her house, and she frequently referred to Muima as “my husband.”
Speaking about his romantic life, Muima stated, “This is my choice.” This is my happiness, just as everyone else’s is. Before pleasing others, please yourself and make your decision without regard for the opinions of others.
“The way she treated (me) pushed me to love her, and even though she is an old woman, she could be my grandmother, I love her.”
Thereza, a grandmother, stated, “I am the mother of eight children and grandmother to twenty grandchildren. My boyfriend could be my fifth grandchild based on his age. He adores me, and I adore him. I’m all set to put on my wedding gown and ring.”
The couple due to the reaction their relationship had generated insists that their love story is authentic and they have decided to get married.
Some social media users have reacted to the unusual love, while some frown at it, and others are applauding what they share.
