Kathi Jenkins,74, and Devaughn Aubrey,27, claim they are trying to show that love has no age limit after meeting on a hookup site and getting engaged after a year of knowing each other.

Despite the husband being younger than some of her grandchildren, a couple with a 47-year age gap says they are determined to show the world that love has no bounds.

Kathi Jenkins, 74, met Devaughn Aubrey, 27, of Texas, in the United States, on the adult dating site Adult Friend Finder.

Despite the site not being a dating app, the two opted to get to know each other.

Kathi and Devaughn's relationship evolved into much more than sex, and the couple is now engaged to be married.

Devaughn stated he knew the 74-year-old was the one for him after being in a relationship for almost a year.

He said: "We met online on AFF it is a hook up site neither of us were looking for a serious relationship.

"I stumbled on her picture, it was a picture of her breast. I read her profile and messaged her in hopes of a response, she was online too and answered back.

"I asked for her number and she gave it to me then she immediately asked how big my member is and we talked for a bit that night."

Kathi lived two hours away from him, so the couple talked for four months before meeting.

Upon finally agreeing to meet, Devaughn continued to say: "Once I got to her house she was waiting for me already in bed and directed me inside her house to her room and I came in her door and saw her, she looked way hotter than her pictures and smelled really sweet and good.

"She had this silky dark red blouse on with nothing else.

"Thank god I never told her my height. She's very selective, she's a size queen that likes tall men and I'm 5ft 7ins so once she saw me in person one of the first things she said was 'you're short' or 'you're shorter than I thought '.

"She wasn't mad, she thought I was hot and we met at a hotel room a couple weeks after that and just kept meeting every week until she invited me over for Thanksgiving then we became official I guess."

Kathi had previously been in a couple of long-term relationships but had never been married.

She has four children, 13 grandchildren, 36 great-grandchildren, and one great-great-grandson, and she is currently retired.

Devaughn, who works as a Walmart stocker and a condo porter, has no children but was married at the age of 24. However, he divorced in 2021, just before meeting Kathi.

And he has stated that this is unlike any other relationship he has ever had.

He said: "She is so perfect for me and she is very experienced in life and teaches me a lot. We never fight, can always talk without yelling and I trust her completely."

He added that one of the things that drew him to Kathi was her jokes and her looks, adding: "She sings beautifully and she knows a lot of those old songs that remind me of the stuff my grandmother liked and she knows a lot of the artists that my grandmother liked.

"I guess I like how old she is because I like older women or old women regardless if she needs a walker and stuff. I have never been bothered by that."

Despite being in the relationship for a while and with plans to get married next year, the pair have faced some adversity in their relationship.

Kathi said that she usually goes for tall white men - so Devaughn was a surprise to her family, adding: "Devaughn messaged me on AFF like many others. I responded and gave him my phone so we could text."

She continued: "Something about him made me agree to a meeting, many men say stupid stuff and I won't meet them, but Devaughn never did."

Devaughn's family is mostly supportive, but they assumed he was lying about her age until he showed them pictures.

He said: "I told my mother about her when we started dating but she thought I was joking about her age until we spent our birthdays together and showed her our pictures but I'm sure my parents and siblings got the hint that I like older women.

"I do have friends around Kathi's age, some are concerned that I might want kids and can't understand why I would want someone older but they are still supportive.

"Because of our age gap, sometimes people assume that Kathi is rich and that I want all her money, which is not the case at all."

Despite this, he has admitted that, "Some people do say it's inappropriate but it's just right for us."

And prior to meeting, Kathi and Devaughn admitted to living completely different lives, but their worlds seem to have collided well.

Kathi said: "I'm just a regular lady living in Texas. I have four children, three daughters and a son, I have 13 grandchildren, 36 great grandchildren and counting and one great great grandson so far.

"I've been in Texas since my youngest was five. I have had a couple of long term relationships and worked many jobs, sometimes two at a time, I mostly waited tables or in fast food to support my children."

There are occasions when the age difference pair faces reaction, especially because their relationship is out of the ordinary.

However, they do not let this bother them because, along with the nasty remarks, there are also nice ones from individuals who support them.

"My best friend thinks it's wonderful that we found each other," said Kathi, while Devaughn chipped in saying: "Most people say 'as long as you're happy', and we are very happy".

Regardless of what their friends, family, and strangers think, the pair is excited to take their relationship to the next level and establish their future together.

They say that they envision a picture-perfect times ahead, with Kathi saying: "I just want us to live the rest of our lives together and be happy."

And Devaughn says he is "looking forward to coming home to see my pretty hot lady with her pretty hot meals and her hot kisses".

He adds: "I love showing off my sexy fiance. I can't get over how beautiful she is."

The 74-year-old and 27-year-old said they want others to look at their relationship and let love be love, and they don't want age gap partnerships to be stigmatized.

People who may find themselves in a similar relationship said: "If you love someone older, go for it, do what makes you happy."

And Davaughn said: "I think we should all do what makes us happy no matter what people think or feel, be natural."
