Fib or viral? She's just 18 and her husband is in his 60s
Is there such a thing as age just being a number?
As much as we can say that social media is great, it has its bad moments.
It's all fun and games until the intention is to gain attention or to scam people into 'following' you...
From what we gather, this couple have done just that. Doctored images create a storyline that they knew would get views and help them go 'viral'.
And knowing the TikTok audience, they didn't leave it there - they stalked and investigated, and we cannot say we blame them.
Especially when someone thinks they can create such a big lie and get away with it.
This couple shows their child, who introduces them to the world of TikTok, sharing that his mom is 18-years-old and his dad is 65-years-old.

Yeah, that caught your attention alright. Guess that's the point?
But after further social media investigation, it seems it was all a lie.
Her husband is in fact young, so we are not sure who the 65-year-old man is? Perhaps it was her husband using a filter?
Because we all know that those filters can be deceiving...
Jokes, we found the video of her husband, it seems they just played a prank on all of us, as that's what they do on their page. That and promote Amazon products.
