I agree 99% of the time, however there are times when people just stop having sex with there partners. That's a tough situation, especially when it's a guy since divorce court tends to favour women. So if a neglected man strayed it would be hard for me to be mad at him choosing to cheat rather then lose half his shit.
My husband of 10 years admitted to having an affair for the past 4 years. And what's sad is that our sexual life was beyond awesome and as he says that wasn't the reason and that he loves me and didn't even like her. Like seriously how stupid do guys think we are? 4 year relationship but he loved me and didn't like her? I can't believe it
Men often don’t think about $ex the way we do. Your husband can absolutely love you and be sleeping with a side piece that he doesn’t like that much. I think the lying about infidelity is really the issue. You didn’t consent to have that kind of relationship. I wish you all the best for the future.❤
@@CF. thank you. Ya it's the double life in my face for four years it's too much. Love him, hard to leave him but I'm taking the steps I'm at my parents and I think I should just divorce coz I don't think he loves me or respects me enough and that once a cheater will always be a cheater. I asked for a divorce twice before and he would allow it and still stayed with the other woman. I don't get it so now even if he left her and he regrets it j think it just tooooo late
@@Uchechukwu.O-r9c It ends the marriage and the abuse. What she did can be used against her in court. He should get full custody to protect the kids. She’s clearly a predator.
@@Sigmaasphere how can you be so confidently wrong? Yea, men and women are different, but not to the point that we have _totally different behaviors in regards to family making or sexual activities._ We are the same species. Either we’re supposed to be faithful to each other totally, or we’re not supposed to be at all. You can’t have one partner be completely faithful, and the other be the opposite and expect things to work out well. Letting men cheat and play around is how you end up with certain concubines being the favorite, certain children being the favorites, and certain other children being fatherless. Women deserve men’s loyalty just as men deserve women’s. And you, sir, don’t seem to deserve any woman at all.
When I (M) was 18 or 19, I had a female sergeant in the Army (around 40-43) wanted to start a relationship with me. She had a kid a couple years younger than me. I was completely aware of the fact that she was much older than me and had a kid my age, and I even mentioned the fact I was nearly the same age as her kid and asked how would he feel about it. I kind of liked her, but I didn't pursue a relationship because 1) her kid was my age, 2) the age difference, and 3) to top it all off, she was married. When that guy said he didn't notice the age difference, he is 100% lying.
Small correction: Joey King didn't play his love interest, Prince and Tangerine just had a few interactions in the film. That's it, it's not one of those cases where they fell in love due to their characters falling in love, I think it was just offset chemistry. Edit: That's if the rumours are true, if not they're just friends or really close off camera.
Was going to say the same thing. Nobody fact checks this show. As it is in most cases, somebody said something and it blew up without any poof. Aaron and Joey barely interacted in the movie let alone outside the movie and so it's probably all bullshit.
I think the circumstances depend. I could be 22 now and meet a girl when she was 17 and then be 28 and date her later on when she's 23 and I wouldn't think that's weird. Just depends. But generally I personally have no problem when 18 year olds choose to do whatever and date whomever. I suppose I agree they shouldn't date bad people or abusive people or people who would be a bad influence but that's not really my business or my call to make. They are the adult in those situations. Now if it was MY kid then that's different. But generally, when it's a stranger I don't give a fuck.
Regardless of whether or not you think that the relationship being sketchy was a mitigating factor, here's another factor: the fact that they have kids just means that cheating will negatively affect them too. It would've been better if he just ripped off the bandaid and divorced her before it ever got that far, if only to not drag out the drama.
@@FirstNameLastName-wt5to I'm not sure about that. We've seen no evidence that she has 1) any pedophilic tendencies, if you're worried about that and 2) any incestuous tendencies. Is it really weird? Yeah. Is she a child predator? No evidence she is. Edit: I guess there might be evidence she had sex with him while he was younger. I missed that initially. Still, no evidence of pedophilia or incest, even if she is very possibly a child molester.
I guess what I'm saying is, if she had sex with him while he was underaged, if it's within the statute of limitations, she should be in jail. But that doesn't necessarily mean they should get divorced.
She groomed him. He’s trapped in a marriage with his abuser. I wouldn’t consider it cheating. It would be best for the marriage to end and for him to get the kids seeing as she clearly has a thing for teenagers.
@@FirstNameLastName-wt5to Well, it's still cheating. I would say that it's more destructive to his life to cheat because it would damage his integrity forever. And even just the rumors of him dating Joey King will harm the young actress's own relationship, which is a selfish thing. He should care less if that granny groomer gets hurt. What he should do, whether or not he finds another woman who's actually good for him, is divorce the old bat and fight to have his children in his life. No matter what, those kids shouldn't have to suffer the deeds of their parents. But no person should be stuck in that kind of disturbing and weirdo relationship. And I say this as someone who hates divorce because my own mother's been divorced twice, but in some cases, the marriage should've never happened in the first place. The actor was clearly groomed, even if he consented in their relationship. Apparently young guys have kinks for older, "mature" women. But of course having that kink doesn't mean that they actually want a relationship with the older woman. But because they're young and stupid, they are seduced into believing so. Maybe that's the case with Johnson? Apologies for the long comment, I just wanted to give my two cents
I’m not gonna take up for the man, but you do realize this is just a RUMOR right? There’s no physical evidence or proof. You can’t just bash on someone with no evidence.
What makes this relationship even weirder is that they actually met when he was a kid about 6 or 7. She knew his parents and was a close family friend. Thats why he got the role for that movie. She requested that he auditioned for that john lennon movie
It might be interesting. But there is nothing wrong with it. Just the fact that you once knew someone and later married them does not mean grooming. What I am saying is that when they met as adults there is no evidence of grooming. And they made the choice to get married as adults. Stop with your age obsessiosns.
@@geezee1946 there is a difference between having an age gap with a stranger, and having met your significant other when they were still watching peppa pig. Even if she waited till he was a consenting adult (which a 17 year old is not btw), she met him as a small child, how would you overlook that initial image of them?? There's heaps wrong with that
When I was 20 I got into a year long relationship with a married woman who was 32. That was 16yrs ago and it still bothers me today that I did that. Don’t know why I felt the need to get that off my chest in the YT comments but there it is.
😢 I genuelly feel bad for you and I find it strange how people are trying to defender considering she was dating a teenager . But in your case although the relationship was bad you have to take some responsibility you were 20 and should be able to take decisions bad or good
Correction: it is actually true that they met when he was around 9 years old(she was a family friend, yes) they got together when he was 17 and working for her(she was also married back then), they married when he was 18 and had a child when he was 19. That is why everybody finds this so creepy and people are cheering him on for cheating
Rule number 1: if you have to ask if something is Justified, then chances are it's probably not. Things that are just, Justified,, or justifiable are normally self-evident, and don't need to be questioned.
It’s just disgusting, even if they didn’t meet until he was 18 I’d still think it was reprehensible for a middle age woman to chase a flipping teenager, especially when she’s his freaking boss. Gives Harvey Weinstein vibes
The thing that stopped me in my tracks with Brett was that she said in Bullet Train Joey King plays Aaron Taylor-Johnson's love interest. I watched Bullet Train the other day, there is no love interests at all in the entire movie, Joey King's entire character was built around being a manipulative girl who just wanted to kill her dad. Brett needs to do a little bit more research.
@@Thebuffestgal She knew him as a child, groomed him, and then married him as soon as he was an adult. When men do this I also call it out for what it is.
I’m not gonna take up for the man, but you do realize this is just a RUMOR right? There’s no physical evidence or proof. You can’t just bash on someone with no evidence.
Disagree. When women *choose* to date players, they *choose* the chance for unfaithfulness. It's like buying a motorcycle and complaining it has 4 wheels.
@@ym5891 um, okay? Yea, so people make very dumb decisions when they think they’re in love. How does that make cheating okay? It’s still morally wrong, even if the other person in the relationship should’ve expected it based on visible behaviors. Is murder justifiable if the victim was in a dangerous part of town? That would mean all poor people’s deaths wouldn’t matter. See the problem?
I'm hesitant to say that their relationship is fraudulent or unhealthy, recognizing full well that it is weird. The disparaty in their age doesn't necessarily mean that she was looking to manipulate him, though it is super hard to trust Hollywood relationships. I cannot believe though that Aaron didn't notice their age difference at first. Maybe he didn't care and thus didn't feel like she was much older than he was, but to not notice has got to be an overstatement. In any case, it's never okay to cheat. Marriage in particular happens because you make a commitment to that person, don't break that commitment for a fleeting moment of pleasure.
I was going to leave a comment but you said everything I was going to say. Except the fact that he was 18 and I think the word grooming was thrown around too much. When words are used in the wrong context then it cheapens the words potential impact that it was meant for. First video of hers that I couldn't agree with atleast something she said. I
Yes! Well said! He was 18, which is a good point, I mean 18 year olds are bound to make some bad decisions, just the nature of being that age, but that's kind of how people learn what things they might keep in their adulthood.
@@charliedunn7411 Exactly lord knows I know I did haha but you are correct that is exactly how you grow. Also it use to be very common to have that age gap. Now if the wife started when he was 11 that is different but there is not proof of that as far as I know.
there is never a reason to cheat. If the relationship is so bad that you feel the need to cheat, then just leave the relationship. That easy... I don't know why people don't understand this concept...
There is a right way to deal with this kind of "relationship" where there's some weird gap or power balance. Cheating is NOT it. There are NO explanation for ANY situation that make cheating OK. You can't make it right by doing something wrong.
Off the topic, I know, but I love how Brett manages to somehow include the sponsors in every narrative that she gives, it’s so funny and actually very smart because it doesn’t make me skip them
Not related, but here is a strange relationship: In the 2014 Godzilla film, Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Elizabeth Olsen played husband and wife. In Avengers: Age of Ultron, they played brother and sister.
A lot of flings, hookups, and cheating happens around movie sets, live cast theatre people, etc. I did theatre when I was younger, and there were lots of different age gaps. There were always secret relationships with cast mates because you just meet so many people and not many really settle into monogamous relationships. People will always find out
The translation and further inclusion of the original story within the ad made me watch it rather than skip. Had to give Brett her props on that one! 😂
Is anyone else confused on where the whole idea of Joey King being his love interest in Bullet Train came from? I’ve seen it multiple times and there’s nothing to suggest that…
Cheating is never OK. If you no longer wish to be with your partner, then tell them so and you can both move on. Cheating on your partner is unkind and disrespectful. If you ever cared for your partner, you should tell them. It is the very least you can do. BTW you are the queen of seaways! nobody does it better.
There's absolutely no evidence of him cheating with this actress and promoting unsubstantiated rumours is very insulting to the characters of those involved and destructive towards their personal relationships and reputation.
I’m not gonna take up for the man, but you do realize this is just a RUMOR right? There’s no physical evidence or proof. You can’t just bash on someone with no evidence.
As stated in my own comment; I disagree for the simple reason that if you select a guy that is likely to cheat on you, it's entirely justifiable that he does. You knew what he was like and you chose to date him anyway. You can't have your cake and eat it too. With choice comes responsibility.
This makes me sad. My father was 30 years older than my mother. My father was a great man. He never raised his voice to her and he adored her! Would wake up early just to boil water so she could take a hot shower before work. Till his hospice days he got up early to make her her daily coffee. He stayed home while she went to build her career. He would cook, clean and truly go the extra mile. Both lived out their faithful family vows until he passed. You may call it grooming, but every one that matters knows the true story of their love and the circumstances of their marriage.
I guess it would depend on A) how old she was when they met, and B) how she grew up. Depending on how long ago we’re talking, people used to grow up faster in a mental sense. No shade to you and your family, of course, it’s just that in most cases relationships like those of your loved ones aren’t good ones.
I appreciate your comment so much. I believe that there are some couples with a wide age gap who thrive and create a loving family. It sounds like you were blessed with two great parents, regardless of their ages 🙂
If anything ever comes to the point of cheating, their relationship should be talked about. No one deserves to find out or know what it feels like to be cheated on. That's a point-blank I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy.
Being 32 now, looking back when i was a teenager to my mid twenties, fuck I could not engage with a teenager at this age at all. Because you know what? I know better! She knew better, because she has been there, she can remember and have the ability to be like "hey, he's still very young, still growing, he doesn't know even if he thinks he knows. This is why usually men seek younger partners, because you're sooooo easily maliable until your mid twenties, your brain is still growing. You absorb everything. I have been there so many times, and looking back, I am disgusted that older people clearly took advantage of me .
Omg, this is insane. Do people not investigate these kinds of situations? Also, in regards to cheating, why can people just comment to a relationship. If you are having problems, go to therapy or talk it out like normal people. Instead people are going behind each other's back and are just not doing anything to fix it.
I’m not gonna take up for the man, but you do realize this is just a RUMOR right? There’s no physical evidence or proof. You can’t just bash on someone with no evidence.
i had a HUGE crush on him on my teen years, and looked him up, and when I saw this i was so freaked out!!!!! it was really weird. i always felt he could ve been so much famous if he was not so into their relationship, cuz he was so cute younger.
I wish Aaron and his wife the best. They got married and had two kids together. They have a full family. I hope all the talk is just that. People seem to be really invested in destroying their relationship. It is disappointing to see people go after two long time married people like this. There is a real 'bring the torches and the pitchforks' vibe around two peoples married private relationship. The mob is screaming very loudly. Nobody ever said a peep about Hugh Hefner. Not one peep.
I think it's the mainstream media that didn't speak out negatively about Hefner. As they have been pushing liberalism for decades,but privately many of us spoke out against Hefner and promiscuity in general.
Remember, though. She divorced her husband (with two kids) to marry this much younger boy. She cheated on her first husband with him. She's a pretty scummy person regardless (tho I don't think cheating or revenge cheating is good in general).
They met when he was a child. She groomed him and then married him as soon as he turned 18. That’s predatory and abusive behavior. If a man did that we wouldn’t hesitate to call it grooming and abusive and fight for the girl to be free from him. But a woman does it and suddenly it’s ok? He’s a victim. He needs to divorce her and fight for full custody. She’s a risk to their children.
@@Avx829 Thinking and doing something are two different things. Thinking about a past ONS is okay. Looking at Corn is not. Again, THINKING is not the same as doing.
@@idontreallyknowagoodname4191 I would agree that emotional cheating isn't "real" cheating BUT thoughts can lead to actions. Emotional connections can lead to physical connections. So if you're serious about your relationship with someone it's something to be careful of.
Got cheated on my birthday few weeks back. It destroyed me but apparently from what I've seen its normal these days and even glorified by some to fuck around and be promiscuous. Im done with dating in todays world
What pisses me off to no end is when the cheater justifies, deflects, shames, and blames the victim... expect them to just accept it and move on but cry foul when they're on the receiving end.
I love how Brett sneaks in the ads into the video and makes it relevant to the video. I usually always skip sponsored ads but I watch hers straight through.
My grandparents were 11 years apart In my great grandparents were 32 years apart. My grandmother was 19 and my grandfather was 30 when they get married and my Great grandmother was 18 and my great grandfather was 50 when they got married. I don't see a problem with age gaps as long they are legal and you are Is truly happy with the decision.
Well, considering both Aaron Taylor-Johnson and his wife are British, and the age of consent being 16 in the UK, he was already legally an adult when they met. So this would actually not count as a case of grooming. Yes, the age gap is still weird, but to call this grooming is a bit of a stretch.
@@bbytiia Would you say the same thing about Pete Davidson dating women who are old enough to be his mother? Also, if two people are consenting adults who love each other, regardless of the age gap, it is not grooming.
It's gotta a be a multibillion dollar industry... it's essentially the core of the movie/tv industry for example, and I'm not just talking about reality tv. The engine of a screenplay is composed of a dynamic relationship and a relationship with an antagonist. (And for some reason the public is always speculating that the lead actors & actresses of a film/show must be romantically involved). One of the earliest chapters to the first screenplay books I read was about employing voyuerism, basically saying that you have to embrace this fundamental human flaw/desire.
I knew about their marriage before this video. I was weirded out when I find out about the age gap between them. Watching this video with additional info makes me, even more creeped out about their marriage. I don't look kindly into marriages with a big age gap like 20 years. Lets get rid of these damn groomers once and for all.
Just because you don't look kindly upon age gaps in marriages doesn't mean it's wrong or that the older spouse is a groomer. I agree he was way too young to be making a decision about marriage and her being the older, experienced one should have allowed him to mature more beforehand but they fell in love and made the decision right for them. As he said he's an old soul, she's young at heart. It's the same way with my husband and I. he's 28, I'm 48. Granted we met when he was 23 and didn't marry until he was 25 but he's still young. Nobody even notices our age gap or thinks anything of it because we're so well suited for each other. It's rare for large age gaps to work but not unheard of. Either way it's nobody's business but their own and who are you to pass judgment. That makes you no better than these crazy leftist pushing their beliefs on everyone. Keep your opinions to yourself and let them be happy or not, it's their life. period.
@@sackofangrybadgers Am I supposed to take this to heart when your username is literally Nip Slip. Or the fact you completely ignored what Brett said about how she possibly knew him when he was only 6 and that they begin dating when he was 18 right off the bat. What if it was the other way around, will you defend that too? Hmm, am I really supposed to take this?
@@Vic-pg4rg lol firstly I'm simply stating my worthless opinion just as you did but just because I use an inside joke about my dog's name my view is somehow less valid for me than yours? Opinions are not and should not be something taken to heart how silly you are. However last I checked "possibly" doesn't mean "definitely". It's rumors and all I'm saying is rumor are dangerous and it's wrong to pass judgment on someone you don't even know simply based upon your moral compass but apparently you're extremely judgmental basing your opinions solely upon shallow observations. Are we to assume your opinion is anymore important than mine or anyone else's? Perhaps you're right and she groomed him but perhaps you're wrong. My point is just because you take issue to someone's, a literal stranger's personal life choices doesn't make them wrong. People like you are what's wrong with the world today. Whatever happened to live and let live, hmm??
I'm a 40 year old woman. My daughter is 22. I cannot IMAGINE dating any of her guy friends! Or any young man her age for that matter! This woman had kids that were his age when they got together?!! That is beyond disgusting to me. You have to think about your own children in that circumstance. Something is very very wrong here!
On a completely unrelated note, Aaron and Joey's characters aren't love interests in Bullet train. There isn't even a hint of romance between their two characters or any character in the entire movie to begin with.
1. Joey king was not his love interest. Her plot line was more so focused on her relationship with her dad. ATJ had more love in that movie with his “twin”, lol cmon now. It’s my understanding that press runs are meant to showcase a close and unified cast. Warmth and positive interactions with costars is likely coached and expected I’d think? 2. ATJ and his wife, eh kinda sketchy I guess but love sometimes doesn’t have an age. There’s nothing documented worth exploring at a deeper level other than the constant suggestion of possible grooming. We should stop applying this term - one seriously affecting a vast number of children truly at risk- so liberally.
He was nearly 18..if it was a older man hardly anyone blinks.. He didn't notice age gap because they had a soul connection. They stayed together long enough to prove it's love. What is age for marriage in various different states in America? How many at 12 or 14?
It’s hard to blame a man who was hooked into a relationship with an enormous power imbalance, when he was neurologically still a child, while she was a mature woman.
People saying he should have just divorced her ages ago if he didn’t like the relationship clearly don’t understand what grooming is and does to the victims
Cheating is for the spineless. The weak minded. The backstabbing. The people that cannot muster the courage to speak plainly to someone’s face. Vile creatures.
Look, he was a legal adult at the time he met her, that doesn’t mean he was not very young or naive, but he was legally allowed to date Sam. We’re not comfortable as a culture with large age gaps, and that’s understable and okay. But this couples marriage just isn’t our business. They’ve been married nearly 12 years and have two daughters, I don’t see them breaking it off anytime soon, and the fact it’s lasted so long and stayed stable (at least in public view) says something about their relationship. Is it odd to us? Absolutely. But there’s nothing illegal going on and no one is getting hurt to our knowledge, leave them to it. Cheating is never okay. Even if the relationship is good or awful. Just break things off, cheating causes so much heartache to everyone involved.
I disagree with the comments on this... if you want to cheat, it's fine! Just never try to convince anyone that you ever cared about the person you cheated on. Cause you never did. You probably care about nobody, and anyone who knows you should disown you, otherwise, you're fine!
99% cheating is not ok but the 1% Aaron is ok to cheat bc that old granny groomed him, I didn't know Joey was engaged and that's really bad. Idk why ppl don't like Joey maybe it's cuz of the kissing booth movies. I do agree ppl need to speak up more about child groomers
I disagree. If she groomed him (which I very much believe she did), that’s wrong, of course. However, it’s still not okay for him to betray not just his marriage and disrespect the woman he’s using for fun, but it’s extremely damaging to his children. It’s better to handle the situation like the adult he is, by ending the marriage based on criminal charges, and sparing himself, his potential new partner, and his children’s dignity.
At the end where Brett mentions the issue of rape being present and no one taking action - it actually reminded me of this one movie a friend mentioned to me briefly once. The name of the movie I believe was called silenced and it is a Korean drama about 2 hours long (on Netflix pretty sure). Anyway, The idea of the movie is based on a true story - in which hearing impaired (deaf) students were sent to a disabilities school but were (behind closed doors) sexually assaulted for over *five years*. This movie was made in around 2011 I think and it brought a LOT of conflict within Korea as the real-life offenders were let off on minimum punishments (basic fines, little to no years in jail etc.) So, rightfully, people took a stand. And when I say this movie was popular I’m talking MILLIONS of people had seen it when it was released. A petition was signed and I’m unsure if the offenders got further punishment (though I believe they did.) It’s interesting how media can influence modern action - and I think it was clever on the directors behalf to bring it to light. I do hope the people whom did get assaulted are doing better in the modern day, and I wish them the best - considering they have already have the setback of just being born disabled. Hope you’re well too, reader !! :))
Idc that is so creepy as someone who's dad cheated on my mom multiple times it's bad but grooming is so much worse than cheating in my opinion.🤷🏾♀️ If it's true I might support it💀 she could be his mother
@@geezee1946 do you realize that he was 17 when they were together 😒 literally still under 18. If a guy is seen with a 17 year old teen people will call him a perv or pedo they'll say he is taking advantage you are probably one of those people that would throw shades.
I understand why you think their relationship is weird, but I also think it's important to realize that relationships like the CAN work. My parents are 29 years apart - when they met she was 23, he was 52- they've now been married 19 years and couldn't be happier. Big age gaps like that are unique, but there's not anything necessarily wrong with them.
I will never understand age differences where one partner is capable of being the parent of the other. Gross. But it does seem like society more readily accepts relationships where the man is the significantly older one 🙄 (I'm going to start calling them 'Grandpa Groomers') That being said, cheating is always wrong. How hard is it to just end the relationship and move on? I don't get it.
@@evaphillips2102 It's the taking it literally part I don't understand. There has never been any appeal to me in a man old enough to be my dad. No thanks.
Ok. Cheating is never ok. I don't follow celebrity relationships that closely, because frankly, I don't care. That being said, if their families did know each other and she knew him as a kid, yes that's weird. I won't pretend to know what happened between them. Also, there are stories like Jane Eyre where a much younger woman falls in love with a much older man, AND her employer. Maybe by today's standards, that's not ok. But it has worked for some couples in the past. I know of someone who married her teacher just after high school, and they've been together ever since. Also, are we all forgetting Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher?
I don't know if I'd see it as creepy to the same level as other people. My parents are 19 years apart so I was more inclined to like much older men because it was normal. (My husband ended up being one year older than me - my kindergarten crush.) My mom was 21 and getting a divorce when she met my dad who was 40. They were married and she had my oldest brother at 24. She's 2.5 years younger than my dad's oldest kid. They were friends and my dad was really nervous to ask her out. People think it's weird, but they are still married and both are retired and he took care of my mom's mom until she passed since my mom retired shortly before she passed. Anyway... just giving another age gap perspective.
The age obsession in this thread and video if Frankly quite ridiculous. They were both adults when they got married. Age difference does not justify cheating, no way!
@@geezee1946 Agreed. I think most people think the age difference is an issue because the woman was incredibly involved in his life while he was growing up so it seems a bit more sketchy.
Everyone in this comment section needs to remember the rest of the world isn't the United States. Our age of consent isn't the same as every other country on earth. In The UK where these two are from the age of consent is 16. Sure what the lady did was weird but at this point it was all legal and they seem happy enough if they have two kids. Honestly the weirdest part of this whole situation is the way the internet has fetishized the possible cheating and marital issues. Have the terminally online people gotten so lonely they actively cheer for the end of strangers relationships?
As someone who has an age gap relationship, I sympathize with him. I've never seen the age of my partner and it's never been an issue between us. We didn't do anything during our first year together because I wasn't old enough. So ya I can believe they didn't do anything during filming when he was 17. Once he turned 18 tho I felt like they would have fucked like rabbits. But maybe that'd just be me. We've been together now for 9 years and I had our son just this year. I get why people think age-gap relationships aren't the norm. And they aren't at the same time tho just because someone is older than their partner doesn't make them a predator. I know of another couple who have an age gap. Buddy was 28 at the time and she was 15. They have been married for almost 30 years now and have 2 teenage children and are the happiest couple I know. So as long as there happy and no one abusing each other then I don't see why people have to be so nasty.
"Buddy was 28 and she was 15" OK 👌. I also think that grooming should be made legal after all, p*doph*les are not that bad, they Just have spécial tastes. It''s also well known that molding your "partner" (into wathever you like) from à child to an adult will increase the chances of them staying with you for the longest time. It's not like you brainwashed them after all ❤️.
You need to try harder if your goal is to get people to feel empathy towards P*dos and or accept their philosophies because successfully groomed people like yourself see nothing wrong with these people. I honestly Just feel bad for your children because it seems as though you Will be the kind of parent to let your kids get taken adventage of by old perverts in the name of "love".
ya but there's a difference between a prepubescent child (under 10 usually but can go up to 13) and a teenager who's gone threw puberty (14-18-year-olds) pedophiles are a specific definition. The way our laws are written, a child is classed as anyone who isn't an adult by legal terms. An adult is someone who is over a certain age in a country, so Canada considers 18 to be adlut. States usually 21. In Europe age of consent is 14 and in some places 16. So there of legal age to consent to sex in their country does that still make it grooming? Grooming from what I understand, is when an adult tries to normalize sexual behavior with that child. (touching themselves etc) but again we're talking prepubescent children here. So I don't see how you could call something grooming when you don't do anything sexually for a whole year. Or don't have sex until they were married in the case of my friend. They got married in the '80s so that was still a thing back then. Or do you believe the age of consent laws is too low? Should it be higher than 16? Cuz that's what we're talking about here young adults, not children.
This is the only episode i disagree with BC on. I have met several friends in my life who cross time to find their soulmates and are still together today. I feel since it is rare for this to happen, People default to their judgmental selves. Some out of ignorance, some out of jealousy, and maybe some cause of events in their lives. Those who truly fall in love with each other mind, body, and soul don’t care how others feel. The only person that matters is there soulmate. I truly pray everyone who reads this finds not just some one who makes them happy but some one who they know that their love will transcend time, space, and seep into other dimensions to find one another again.
let me clarify. The part of this vid i disagree with is when she said its wrong for people to be that far apart in age. You never know everyones circumstance, and no one actually has the moral right to judge unless ye pull the plank from their own eye.
Hi, Brett & Team! Happy Friday!! Well....this story is putting a spotlight on one heck of an age discrepancy in terms of "romance". Wow. Yes, this story would have been much hotter if the man was the one who was so much older, but oh well. Hypocrisy is "old hat" these days, unfortunately. No, I don't think there's an excuse to engage in cheating here. If they committed to each other, then stay committed to each other (unless your spouse is sleeping around behind your back). Then the marriage covenant has been severed. My brother went through that. But now that they have kids, then I'd expect them to work through any betrayals for the kids' sakes. By the way, Brett, didn't you say that she's over 100?? Does that mean that she was round when Biden got elected to the Senate for the first time?? 🤣🤣🤣
Nothing justifies cheating in a relationship. It reveals an insurmountable failure of moral character. A person who cheats on a spouse isn't deserving of being romantically involved with anyone.
Cheating is never okay. Don't ever allow yourselves to think it is.
💯
well grooming is never okay so in this case i can justify it
Monopoly? I'm banned from being the banker cause my daughter and I have a hustle.

I agree 99% of the time, however there are times when people just stop having sex with there partners. That's a tough situation, especially when it's a guy since divorce court tends to favour women. So if a neglected man strayed it would be hard for me to be mad at him choosing to cheat rather then lose half his shit.
Cheating is okay guys

Nothing ever can justify cheating, and if someone tries to convince you that it does, don’t believe them.
Cheating isn't even objective. Some consider using Tinder cheating, others are fine with an open relationship
She groomed him. I don’t consider this cheating. He’s a victim trapped in a marriage with his abuser.
@@FirstNameLastName-wt5to and how does cheating help in this situation?
@@Uchechukwu.O-r9c It ends the marriage and the abuse. What she did can be used against her in court. He should get full custody to protect the kids. She’s clearly a predator.

Good math I agree
Its not ok for women to cheat...Men show loyalty differently
@@Sigmaasphere how can you be so confidently wrong? Yea, men and women are different, but not to the point that we have _totally different behaviors in regards to family making or sexual activities._ We are the same species. Either we’re supposed to be faithful to each other totally, or we’re not supposed to be at all. You can’t have one partner be completely faithful, and the other be the opposite and expect things to work out well. Letting men cheat and play around is how you end up with certain concubines being the favorite, certain children being the favorites, and certain other children being fatherless. Women deserve men’s loyalty just as men deserve women’s. And you, sir, don’t seem to deserve any woman at all.
That ‘quick maths’ checks out
When I (M) was 18 or 19, I had a female sergeant in the Army (around 40-43) wanted to start a relationship with me. She had a kid a couple years younger than me. I was completely aware of the fact that she was much older than me and had a kid my age, and I even mentioned the fact I was nearly the same age as her kid and asked how would he feel about it. I kind of liked her, but I didn't pursue a relationship because 1) her kid was my age, 2) the age difference, and 3) to top it all off, she was married.
When that guy said he didn't notice the age difference, he is 100% lying.
How old was her kid at the time? Since you said a couple of years I’m going to assume 15 or older?
@@riddlesangerissues3127 I think around 17
Small correction: Joey King didn't play his love interest, Prince and Tangerine just had a few interactions in the film. That's it, it's not one of those cases where they fell in love due to their characters falling in love, I think it was just offset chemistry.
Edit: That's if the rumours are true, if not they're just friends or really close off camera.
Thank you! Came to say the same thing.

I don’t know how any person would be okay with an age gap of over 20 years especially when they met when one wasn’t even legally an adult.
Just to be clear, the legal age of adulthood in Britain is 18, not 21. Therefore, he was legally an adult.
@@jamesohara4162 they met when he was 17 and it’s also 18 in the US.
@@noahargo9990 more like 6 or 7
@@angela7014 6 or 7 what?
I think the circumstances depend. I could be 22 now and meet a girl when she was 17 and then be 28 and date her later on when she's 23 and I wouldn't think that's weird. Just depends. But generally I personally have no problem when 18 year olds choose to do whatever and date whomever. I suppose I agree they shouldn't date bad people or abusive people or people who would be a bad influence but that's not really my business or my call to make. They are the adult in those situations.
Now if it was MY kid then that's different. But generally, when it's a stranger I don't give a fuck.
Regardless of whether or not you think that the relationship being sketchy was a mitigating factor, here's another factor: the fact that they have kids just means that cheating will negatively affect them too. It would've been better if he just ripped off the bandaid and divorced her before it ever got that far, if only to not drag out the drama.
The best thing for the kids would be for them to divorce and him to get custody. If she went after him, what might she do to her teenagers.
I love your profile pic bwt 👍
@@FirstNameLastName-wt5to I'm not sure about that. We've seen no evidence that she has 1) any pedophilic tendencies, if you're worried about that and 2) any incestuous tendencies.
Is it really weird? Yeah. Is she a child predator? No evidence she is.
Edit: I guess there might be evidence she had sex with him while he was younger. I missed that initially. Still, no evidence of pedophilia or incest, even if she is very possibly a child molester.
I guess what I'm saying is, if she had sex with him while he was underaged, if it's within the statute of limitations, she should be in jail.
But that doesn't necessarily mean they should get divorced.
Major difference: John didn't start dating Aunt Mimi.
Nothing will justify cheating on a partner. It causes problems and makes me sick.
She groomed him. He’s trapped in a marriage with his abuser. I wouldn’t consider it cheating. It would be best for the marriage to end and for him to get the kids seeing as she clearly has a thing for teenagers.
You know we’re living in heathen world when this conversation is even happening.
@@FirstNameLastName-wt5to Well, it's still cheating. I would say that it's more destructive to his life to cheat because it would damage his integrity forever. And even just the rumors of him dating Joey King will harm the young actress's own relationship, which is a selfish thing. He should care less if that granny groomer gets hurt. What he should do, whether or not he finds another woman who's actually good for him, is divorce the old bat and fight to have his children in his life. No matter what, those kids shouldn't have to suffer the deeds of their parents. But no person should be stuck in that kind of disturbing and weirdo relationship. And I say this as someone who hates divorce because my own mother's been divorced twice, but in some cases, the marriage should've never happened in the first place. The actor was clearly groomed, even if he consented in their relationship. Apparently young guys have kinks for older, "mature" women. But of course having that kink doesn't mean that they actually want a relationship with the older woman. But because they're young and stupid, they are seduced into believing so. Maybe that's the case with Johnson?
Apologies for the long comment, I just wanted to give my two cents
@@FirstNameLastName-wt5to - How "trapped" in a marriage? Just leave. Separate, whether on paper or not. You do that first before cheating.

What makes this relationship even weirder is that they actually met when he was a kid about 6 or 7. She knew his parents and was a close family friend. Thats why he got the role for that movie. She requested that he auditioned for that john lennon movie
It might be interesting. But there is nothing wrong with it.
Just the fact that you once knew someone and later married them does not mean grooming.
What I am saying is that when they met as adults there is no evidence of grooming.
And they made the choice to get married as adults.

@@haydenmachonisse4031 yeah I absolutely F’d up. Would never and have never done that again or cheated on anyone. Learned my lesson.
Correction: it is actually true that they met when he was around 9 years old(she was a family friend, yes) they got together when he was 17 and working for her(she was also married back then), they married when he was 18 and had a child when he was 19. That is why everybody finds this so creepy and people are cheering him on for cheating
Rule number 1: if you have to ask if something is Justified, then chances are it's probably not.
Things that are just, Justified,, or justifiable are normally self-evident, and don't need to be questioned.
It’s just disgusting, even if they didn’t meet until he was 18 I’d still think it was reprehensible for a middle age woman to chase a flipping teenager, especially when she’s his freaking boss. Gives Harvey Weinstein vibes
The thing that stopped me in my tracks with Brett was that she said in Bullet Train Joey King plays Aaron Taylor-Johnson's love interest. I watched Bullet Train the other day, there is no love interests at all in the entire movie, Joey King's entire character was built around being a manipulative girl who just wanted to kill her dad.
Brett needs to do a little bit more research.

I'm hesitant to say that their relationship is fraudulent or unhealthy, recognizing full well that it is weird. The disparaty in their age doesn't necessarily mean that she was looking to manipulate him, though it is super hard to trust Hollywood relationships. I cannot believe though that Aaron didn't notice their age difference at first. Maybe he didn't care and thus didn't feel like she was much older than he was, but to not notice has got to be an overstatement. In any case, it's never okay to cheat. Marriage in particular happens because you make a commitment to that person, don't break that commitment for a fleeting moment of pleasure.
I was going to leave a comment but you said everything I was going to say. Except the fact that he was 18 and I think the word grooming was thrown around too much. When words are used in the wrong context then it cheapens the words potential impact that it was meant for. First video of hers that I couldn't agree with atleast something she said. I
Yes! Well said! He was 18, which is a good point, I mean 18 year olds are bound to make some bad decisions, just the nature of being that age, but that's kind of how people learn what things they might keep in their adulthood.
@@charliedunn7411 Exactly lord knows I know I did haha but you are correct that is exactly how you grow. Also it use to be very common to have that age gap. Now if the wife started when he was 11 that is different but there is not proof of that as far as I know.
Yeah at 18 I liked some of my teachers. They didn't groom me. So... weird? Yes. Wrong? No
@a b just her knowing him since he was a minor and kind of seeing him grow up leaves a bad taste in my mouth tho
there is never a reason to cheat. If the relationship is so bad that you feel the need to cheat, then just leave the relationship. That easy... I don't know why people don't understand this concept...
Because common sense is not so common these days unfortunately
I get what you mean but cuz he’s a man he’d get wrecked in the divorce. The kids would go to her (e.t.c)
This is what I never understand. You can literally fuck whoever you want one second after breaking up with someone. There's zero need to cheat.
Hes gonna lose custody of all his kids if they divorce. Also, he's almost certainly a victim of grooming, so...
There is a right way to deal with this kind of "relationship" where there's some weird gap or power balance. Cheating is NOT it. There are NO explanation for ANY situation that make cheating OK. You can't make it right by doing something wrong.

A lot of flings, hookups, and cheating happens around movie sets, live cast theatre people, etc. I did theatre when I was younger, and there were lots of different age gaps. There were always secret relationships with cast mates because you just meet so many people and not many really settle into monogamous relationships. People will always find out

The translation and further inclusion of the original story within the ad made me watch it rather than skip. Had to give Brett her props on that one! 😂
Is anyone else confused on where the whole idea of Joey King being his love interest in Bullet Train came from? I’ve seen it multiple times and there’s nothing to suggest that…

Brett likely hasn't seen the movie and just guess the relationship based on irl interactions
Lmao, Joey king did NOT play ATJ’s love interest in bullet train 😂

Cheating is never OK. If you no longer wish to be with your partner, then tell them so and you can both move on. Cheating on your partner is unkind and disrespectful. If you ever cared for your partner, you should tell them. It is the very least you can do. BTW you are the queen of seaways! nobody does it better.
There's absolutely no evidence of him cheating with this actress and promoting unsubstantiated rumours is very insulting to the characters of those involved and destructive towards their personal relationships and reputation.

I guess it would depend on A) how old she was when they met, and B) how she grew up. Depending on how long ago we’re talking, people used to grow up faster in a mental sense. No shade to you and your family, of course, it’s just that in most cases relationships like those of your loved ones aren’t good ones.
I appreciate your comment so much. I believe that there are some couples with a wide age gap who thrive and create a loving family. It sounds like you were blessed with two great parents, regardless of their ages 🙂
If anything ever comes to the point of cheating, their relationship should be talked about. No one deserves to find out or know what it feels like to be cheated on. That's a point-blank I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy.
So that woman is like…a predator…classic Hollywood.
It's incredibly generous to say 18 and 42. She cast him at 16. They got married when he was a teen.
Being 32 now, looking back when i was a teenager to my mid twenties, fuck I could not engage with a teenager at this age at all. Because you know what? I know better!
She knew better, because she has been there, she can remember and have the ability to be like "hey, he's still very young, still growing, he doesn't know even if he thinks he knows.
This is why usually men seek younger partners, because you're sooooo easily maliable until your mid twenties, your brain is still growing. You absorb everything. I have been there so many times, and looking back, I am disgusted that older people clearly took advantage of me .
Omg, this is insane. Do people not investigate these kinds of situations? Also, in regards to cheating, why can people just comment to a relationship. If you are having problems, go to therapy or talk it out like normal people. Instead people are going behind each other's back and are just not doing anything to fix it.
If they go to therapy, the therapist might point out how screwed up her groomer ways are. So I don't think she'd agree to that.
The whole thing started as a mess and will probably end as a mess.
Any relationship that has a double digit gap is odd and creepy to me.

I wish Aaron and his wife the best. They got married and had two kids together. They have a full family. I hope all the talk is just that. People seem to be really invested in destroying their relationship. It is disappointing to see people go after two long time married people like this. There is a real 'bring the torches and the pitchforks' vibe around two peoples married private relationship. The mob is screaming very loudly. Nobody ever said a peep about Hugh Hefner. Not one peep.
I think it's the mainstream media that didn't speak out negatively about Hefner. As they have been pushing liberalism for decades,but privately many of us spoke out against Hefner and promiscuity in general.
Remember, though. She divorced her husband (with two kids) to marry this much younger boy. She cheated on her first husband with him. She's a pretty scummy person regardless (tho I don't think cheating or revenge cheating is good in general).
They met when he was a child. She groomed him and then married him as soon as he turned 18. That’s predatory and abusive behavior. If a man did that we wouldn’t hesitate to call it grooming and abusive and fight for the girl to be free from him. But a woman does it and suddenly it’s ok? He’s a victim.

I find it interesting that people get so invested in other people's relationships.
It's gotta a be a multibillion dollar industry... it's essentially the core of the movie/tv industry for example, and I'm not just talking about reality tv. The engine of a screenplay is composed of a dynamic relationship and a relationship with an antagonist. (And for some reason the public is always speculating that the lead actors & actresses of a film/show must be romantically involved). One of the earliest chapters to the first screenplay books I read was about employing voyuerism, basically saying that you have to embrace this fundamental human flaw/desire.
I knew about their marriage before this video. I was weirded out when I find out about the age gap between them. Watching this video with additional info makes me, even more creeped out about their marriage. I don't look kindly into marriages with a big age gap like 20 years. Lets get rid of these damn groomers once and for all.
Just because you don't look kindly upon age gaps in marriages doesn't mean it's wrong or that the older spouse is a groomer. I agree he was way too young to be making a decision about marriage and her being the older, experienced one should have allowed him to mature more beforehand but they fell in love and made the decision right for them. As he said he's an old soul, she's young at heart. It's the same way with my husband and I. he's 28, I'm 48. Granted we met when he was 23 and didn't marry until he was 25 but he's still young. Nobody even notices our age gap or thinks anything of it because we're so well suited for each other. It's rare for large age gaps to work but not unheard of. Either way it's nobody's business but their own and who are you to pass judgment. That makes you no better than these crazy leftist pushing their beliefs on everyone. Keep your opinions to yourself and let them be happy or not, it's their life. period.
@@sackofangrybadgers Am I supposed to take this to heart when your username is literally Nip Slip. Or the fact you completely ignored what Brett said about how she possibly knew him when he was only 6 and that they begin dating when he was 18 right off the bat. What if it was the other way around, will you defend that too? Hmm, am I really supposed to take this?
@@Vic-pg4rg lol firstly I'm simply stating my worthless opinion just as you did but just because I use an inside joke about my dog's name my view is somehow less valid for me than yours? Opinions are not and should not be something taken to heart how silly you are. However last I checked "possibly" doesn't mean "definitely". It's rumors and all I'm saying is rumor are dangerous and it's wrong to pass judgment on someone you don't even know simply based upon your moral compass but apparently you're extremely judgmental basing your opinions solely upon shallow observations. Are we to assume your opinion is anymore important than mine or anyone else's? Perhaps you're right and she groomed him but perhaps you're wrong. My point is just because you take issue to someone's, a literal stranger's personal life choices doesn't make them wrong. People like you are what's wrong with the world today. Whatever happened to live and let live, hmm??
My mom's parents were 25 years apart. Are saying my grandfather was a groomer?
It's like dating your mom and then marrying her
that's a stupid comparison because however weird their relationship is she didn't give birth to him so it can't be like dating your mom
I'm a 40 year old woman. My daughter is 22. I cannot IMAGINE dating any of her guy friends! Or any young man her age for that matter! This woman had kids that were his age when they got together?!! That is beyond disgusting to me. You have to think about your own children in that circumstance. Something is very very wrong here!
you’re a year old?
@@TunaMayoInumaki 😂
I'm not even born yet!
On a completely unrelated note, Aaron and Joey's characters aren't love interests in Bullet train. There isn't even a hint of romance between their two characters or any character in the entire movie to begin with.
1. Joey king was not his love interest. Her plot line was more so focused on her relationship with her dad. ATJ had more love in that movie with his “twin”, lol cmon now. It’s my understanding that press runs are meant to showcase a close and unified cast. Warmth and positive interactions with costars is likely coached and expected I’d think?
2. ATJ and his wife, eh kinda sketchy I guess but love sometimes doesn’t have an age. There’s nothing documented worth exploring at a deeper level other than the constant suggestion of possible grooming. We should stop applying this term - one seriously affecting a vast number of children truly at risk- so liberally.
They're both English so technically the dude wasn't groomed as the age of consent in the UK is 16
The notion that an 18 year old guy would fall for a 42 year old woman WITHOUT "getting busy" is ludicrous. She was banging him.
people in the comments saying guys can’t get groomed and that he was ‘old enough’, i hope u never have children, ever
The point she made about groomers at the end was a wonderful way to end the discussion. Brilliant. Brett Cooper is a queen
He was nearly 18..if it was a older man hardly anyone blinks.. He didn't notice age gap because they had a soul connection. They stayed together long enough to prove it's love. What is age for marriage in various different states in America? How many at 12 or 14?
If you really don't like the person you're with, or if they're just terrible towards you, LEAVE. Dont cheat. There's no excuse.
I get what you mean but cuz he’s a man he’d get wrecked in the divorce. The kids would go to her (e.t.c)
It’s hard to blame a man who was hooked into a relationship with an enormous power imbalance, when he was neurologically still a child, while she was a mature woman.
They both used each other. Happens in Hollywood all the time.
People saying he should have just divorced her ages ago if he didn’t like the relationship clearly don’t understand what grooming is and does to the victims
Well if these roles were switched people would say there was grooming involved so screw it
Nothing is more fun than watching Hollywood drama and then saying: nah I don’t care anymore 😅
That advertisement transition was flawless, and I died over how spicy Brett got during it 🤣
Please don't answer these adds under your comment, they are scammers
Cheating is for the spineless. The weak minded. The backstabbing. The people that cannot muster the courage to speak plainly to someone’s face. Vile creatures.
I really appreciate all the entertainment and hard work you do.
Honestly, I'm ok with him cheating on her, she groomed him at a very young age. She deserves it tho...
It doesn't matter what might compel someone: don't cheat. Leave.
Look, he was a legal adult at the time he met her, that doesn’t mean he was not very young or naive, but he was legally allowed to date Sam.
We’re not comfortable as a culture with large age gaps, and that’s understable and okay. But this couples marriage just isn’t our business.
They’ve been married nearly 12 years and have two daughters, I don’t see them breaking it off anytime soon, and the fact it’s lasted so long and stayed stable (at least in public view) says something about their relationship.
Is it odd to us? Absolutely. But there’s nothing illegal going on and no one is getting hurt to our knowledge, leave them to it.
Cheating is never okay. Even if the relationship is good or awful. Just break things off, cheating causes so much heartache to everyone involved.
I disagree with the comments on this... if you want to cheat, it's fine! Just never try to convince anyone that you ever cared about the person you cheated on. Cause you never did. You probably care about nobody, and anyone who knows you should disown you, otherwise, you're fine!
Sarcasm at its finest 😂
If she says it’s ok to cheat she will cheat on you
99% cheating is not ok but the 1% Aaron is ok to cheat bc that old granny groomed him, I didn't know Joey was engaged and that's really bad. Idk why ppl don't like Joey maybe it's cuz of the kissing booth movies. I do agree ppl need to speak up more about child groomers
I disagree. If she groomed him (which I very much believe she did), that’s wrong, of course. However, it’s still not okay for him to betray not just his marriage and disrespect the woman he’s using for fun, but it’s extremely damaging to his children. It’s better to handle the situation like the adult he is, by ending the marriage based on criminal charges, and sparing himself, his potential new partner, and his children’s dignity.
At the end where Brett mentions the issue of rape being present and no one taking action - it actually reminded me of this one movie a friend mentioned to me briefly once.
The name of the movie I believe was called silenced and it is a Korean drama about 2 hours long (on Netflix pretty sure).
Anyway,
The idea of the movie is based on a true story - in which hearing impaired (deaf) students were sent to a disabilities school but were (behind closed doors) sexually assaulted for over *five years*.
This movie was made in around 2011 I think and it brought a LOT of conflict within Korea as the real-life offenders were let off on minimum punishments (basic fines, little to no years in jail etc.)
So, rightfully, people took a stand. And when I say this movie was popular I’m talking MILLIONS of people had seen it when it was released. A petition was signed and I’m unsure if the offenders got further punishment (though I believe they did.)
It’s interesting how media can influence modern action - and I think it was clever on the directors behalf to bring it to light.
I do hope the people whom did get assaulted are doing better in the modern day, and I wish them the best - considering they have already have the setback of just being born disabled.
Hope you’re well too, reader !! :))
Idc that is so creepy as someone who's dad cheated on my mom multiple times it's bad but grooming is so much worse than cheating in my opinion.🤷🏾♀️ If it's true I might support it💀 she could be his mother
Exactly she groomed him
There is no evidence that she groomed her husband.
There are many happy marriages with huge age gaps
Your age obsession is kind of wierd.
@@geezee1946 do you realize that he was 17 when they were together 😒 literally still under 18. If a guy is seen with a 17 year old teen people will call him a perv or pedo they'll say he is taking advantage you are probably one of those people that would throw shades.
Cheating is always wrong. If the relationship is done/can't be fixed, m/f walk away.
Yeah I get what you mean but he will be wrecked in the divorce as he’s a man. The children would go to her e.t.c
I understand why you think their relationship is weird, but I also think it's important to realize that relationships like the CAN work. My parents are 29 years apart - when they met she was 23, he was 52- they've now been married 19 years and couldn't be happier. Big age gaps like that are unique, but there's not anything necessarily wrong with them.
That's the disgusting exception not the rule.
@@MaggiePies Judgemental much?
Cheating is not okay, period. It shouldn't take an affair to realize you shouldn't be married to someone
I will never understand age differences where one partner is capable of being the parent of the other. Gross. But it does seem like society more readily accepts relationships where the man is the significantly older one 🙄 (I'm going to start calling them 'Grandpa Groomers')
That being said, cheating is always wrong. How hard is it to just end the relationship and move on? I don't get it.
Not hard to understand at all. We’re always looking for our parents when looking for a mate psychologically speaking. Some people take it literally.
@@evaphillips2102 It's the taking it literally part I don't understand. There has never been any appeal to me in a man old enough to be my dad. No thanks.
When a man marries a younger woman no one bat's an eye. I'm a older man and it doesn't bother me at all. I say good for them.
Ok. Cheating is never ok. I don't follow celebrity relationships that closely, because frankly, I don't care. That being said, if their families did know each other and she knew him as a kid, yes that's weird. I won't pretend to know what happened between them. Also, there are stories like Jane Eyre where a much younger woman falls in love with a much older man, AND her employer. Maybe by today's standards, that's not ok. But it has worked for some couples in the past. I know of someone who married her teacher just after high school, and they've been together ever since. Also, are we all forgetting Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher?
Tiktok detectives thinking they know other people's lives more than the actual person
Celine Dion and her husband also had an age gap and he was also her boss. I don't remember people ever having a problem with it.
Seeing as she gr00med the guy, my pity well has bottomed out. Cheating is never okay, but neither is gr00ming.
Nothing can justify cheating,as someone who has cheated before i completly regret it
I don't know if I'd see it as creepy to the same level as other people. My parents are 19 years apart so I was more inclined to like much older men because it was normal. (My husband ended up being one year older than me - my kindergarten crush.) My mom was 21 and getting a divorce when she met my dad who was 40. They were married and she had my oldest brother at 24. She's 2.5 years younger than my dad's oldest kid. They were friends and my dad was really nervous to ask her out. People think it's weird, but they are still married and both are retired and he took care of my mom's mom until she passed since my mom retired shortly before she passed. Anyway... just giving another age gap perspective.
The age obsession in this thread and video if Frankly quite ridiculous. They were both adults when they got married.
Age difference does not justify cheating, no way!
@@geezee1946 Agreed. I think most people think the age difference is an issue because the woman was incredibly involved in his life while he was growing up so it seems a bit more sketchy.
Everyone in this comment section needs to remember the rest of the world isn't the United States. Our age of consent isn't the same as every other country on earth. In The UK where these two are from the age of consent is 16. Sure what the lady did was weird but at this point it was all legal and they seem happy enough if they have two kids. Honestly the weirdest part of this whole situation is the way the internet has fetishized the possible cheating and marital issues. Have the terminally online people gotten so lonely they actively cheer for the end of strangers relationships?
i agree that the guy married his grommer and he should leave her but why nobody is talking about joey king HUSBAND the man is 15 years older then her
Consenting adults? Sounds like none of our business.

Brett: "I feel like there's a cheating epidemic"
Me: oh it's a new epidemic? I thought that shit going on everywhere
They are both grown and in a consentual relationship so I don't see a problem with the age gap. But nothing justifies cheating.
As someone who has an age gap relationship, I sympathize with him. I've never seen the age of my partner and it's never been an issue between us. We didn't do anything during our first year together because I wasn't old enough. So ya I can believe they didn't do anything during filming when he was 17. Once he turned 18 tho I felt like they would have fucked like rabbits. But maybe that'd just be me. We've been together now for 9 years and I had our son just this year.
I get why people think age-gap relationships aren't the norm. And they aren't at the same time tho just because someone is older than their partner doesn't make them a predator.
I know of another couple who have an age gap. Buddy was 28 at the time and she was 15. They have been married for almost 30 years now and have 2 teenage children and are the happiest couple I know. So as long as there happy and no one abusing each other then I don't see why people have to be so nasty.
"Buddy was 28 and she was 15" OK 👌.
I also think that grooming should be made legal after all, p*doph*les are not that bad, they Just have spécial tastes.
It''s also well known that molding your "partner" (into wathever you like) from à child to an adult will increase the chances of them staying with you for the longest time.
It's not like you brainwashed them after all ❤️.
You need to try harder if your goal is to get people to feel empathy towards P*dos and or accept their philosophies because successfully groomed people like yourself see nothing wrong with these people. I honestly Just feel bad for your children because it seems as though you Will be the kind of parent to let your kids get taken adventage of by old perverts in the name of "love".
ya but there's a difference between a prepubescent child (under 10 usually but can go up to 13) and a teenager who's gone threw puberty (14-18-year-olds) pedophiles are a specific definition. The way our laws are written, a child is classed as anyone who isn't an adult by legal terms. An adult is someone who is over a certain age in a country, so Canada considers 18 to be adlut. States usually 21. In Europe age of consent is 14 and in some places 16.
So there of legal age to consent to sex in their country does that still make it grooming?
Grooming from what I understand, is when an adult tries to normalize sexual behavior with that child. (touching themselves etc) but again we're talking prepubescent children here.
So I don't see how you could call something grooming when you don't do anything sexually for a whole year. Or don't have sex until they were married in the case of my friend. They got married in the '80s so that was still a thing back then.
Or do you believe the age of consent laws is too low? Should it be higher than 16? Cuz that's what we're talking about here young adults, not children.
Nothing Brett mentioned in this episode was substantiated. No evidence of cheating in either case.
Did anyone forget that Brad Pitt cheated on Jennifer Aniston with Angelina Jolie while they were still married??
Cheating is pathetic, just leave someone before you ever go that route. What a harrible thing to do to someone.
I get what you mean but cuz he’s a man he’d get wrecked in the divorce. The kids would go to her (e.t.c)
This is the only episode i disagree with BC on. I have met several friends in my life who cross time to find their soulmates and are still together today. I feel since it is rare for this to happen, People default to their judgmental selves. Some out of ignorance, some out of jealousy, and maybe some cause of events in their lives. Those who truly fall in love with each other mind, body, and soul don’t care how others feel. The only person that matters is there soulmate. I truly pray everyone who reads this finds not just some one who makes them happy but some one who they know that their love will transcend time, space, and seep into other dimensions to find one another again.
Sorry but a 40 year old who was your boss dating you as teenager is kind creepy
Especially considering they met at a even younger age
let me clarify. The part of this vid i disagree with is when she said its wrong for people to be that far apart in age. You never know everyones circumstance, and no one actually has the moral right to judge unless ye pull the plank from their own eye.
As serious as this topic is..."granny groomer" is kinda funny
Hi, Brett & Team! Happy Friday!! Well....this story is putting a spotlight on one heck of an age discrepancy in terms of "romance". Wow. Yes, this story would have been much hotter if the man was the one who was so much older, but oh well. Hypocrisy is "old hat" these days, unfortunately. No, I don't think there's an excuse to engage in cheating here. If they committed to each other, then stay committed to each other (unless your spouse is sleeping around behind your back). Then the marriage covenant has been severed. My brother went through that. But now that they have kids, then I'd expect them to work through any betrayals for the kids' sakes. By the way, Brett, didn't you say that she's over 100?? Does that mean that she was round when Biden got elected to the Senate for the first time?? 🤣🤣🤣
Nothing justifies cheating in a relationship. It reveals an insurmountable failure of moral character. A person who cheats on a spouse isn't deserving of being romantically involved with anyone.
