A WOMAN has revealed that she used to be a lesbian, but is now dating a man 28 years older than her. Honey, 23, began seeing Shawn, 51, after a chance encounter - but now, they are very much in love. Opening up about their age gap love, Honey explained that people assume she is a sugar baby and call their relationship a ‘recipe for disaster’, but she won’t listen or let the mean comments get her down.
Chatting to Truly, on an episode of Love Don’t Judge, the couple confessed that they met in 2018, in a vegan restaurant, when Honey was just 17-years-old. The pair decided to sit in the same booth and things soon blossomed, with Honey admitting to finding “love at first sight”.
And despite their 28-year age difference, Shawn beamed: "It just felt right.”. Honey explained: "Before we got together I was a lesbian. “People tend to judge our relationship because I went from dating women to being engaged to a man. "A lot of people see us and assume sugar daddy, sugar baby.”.
But this didn't bother photographer Shawn, who is regularly mistaken for Honey’s father, as he conceded: "I don’t have a problem with it. She is old enough to be my daughter.". Despite their age gap, Honey’s family fully accepted Shawn, as she acknowledged: "They were never the biggest fan of me being a lesbian because my family is Haitian, Christian.
