A WOMAN has been trolled for kissing her ‘grandma’ but claims she is too busy being in love to care.
Heather McGreachy-Irwin, 36, came out as a lesbian at the age of 33, after being married to a man for seven years.
Meanwhile, her now wife, Sue, 68, who is 32 years older than her, opened up about her sexuality at 65, after being with her ex-husband for 35 years.
The couple, who “never expected to find each other” but are “so grateful” they did, initially bonded over their love of Star Trek on social media.
When they first connected online the women lived 4,207 miles apart, with Sue from Florida, US and Heather from Luton, Bedfordshire.
But after direct messaging for two weeks, they decided to video call via Zoom and immediately hit it off.
They first met in person in November 2021 in London and then tied the knot in a small ceremony with just two of their friends in Central Park in May 2023, with Sue moving to the UK later that summer.
But now, the couple have candidly opened up on being targets for hate online.
While Sue is often mistaken for being Heather’s mum, in a short clip online, Heather, a mental health nurse, claimed that some people even believe her wife is in fact her grandmother.
As Heather shared a behind the scenes look of their intimate wedding day, she revealed that keyboard warriors will often call her relationship ‘gross’ and ask: ‘Why are you kissing your grandma?’
But in response to this, Heather shared her clip with the caption ‘This is our love story. This is our happiness. We see past age. We see past gender. We are just two people who found each other in this crazy world and love each other.’
Not only this, but she then explained: “Well, she’s actually my wife. We have a 32 year age gap and we are building a beautiful life together.
“We get a lot of hate but we are too busy loving each other to notice.
“We are just two souls who found each other and love each other, cherishing whatever time we have.
This is our happiness. We see past age. We see past gender

“This is our love story and our happy ever after.”
The TikTok clip, which was posted under the username @ayankandabrit0, has clearly left many open-mouthed, as it has quickly racked up 106,100 views, 713 likes and 17 comments.
