Mickey Swearingon, 23, and Cherie Salinas, 50, have hit back at criticism over their 27-year age gap - after admitting people often confuse them with mother and son.

A loving couple with a staggering 27-year age gap have hit back at criticism of their unique relationship – even as they admit people often mistake them for mother and son.

Mickey Swearingon, 23, and Cherie Salinas, 50, say people often think they are parents rather than romantic partners – a mistake they acknowledge is not helped by the fact that Cherie’s son is the same age as her boyfriend.

The couple, from Katy, Texas, explained that they don’t mind being judged for their relationship and find comments about their mother-son relationship hilarious.

Mickey shared, “I honestly don’t know how to respond when people say she’s my mom. It’s a gray area and it’s all about proving things to people about our relationship.

“We just want to be happy and if people have something to say, let them say it.”
