A woman who married a man who was 43 years older than she has criticized people who say that she is 'only out of his money'.
Imani Cupé, 34, from San Diego, has been living with his current husband Larry Scott, a 77-year-old accountant, after an online meeting for almost ten years.
But because of the enormous age difference, Imani is often subject to the assumption that she has exhibitions.
Although she admitted that her lover 'spoils' her, she insists that it is true love that keeps them together.
The rumors established in San Diego seemed to have brought the rumors to rest once and for all after they got married at the end of the year – which showed that they had both signed marital conditions.
“People assume that I am alone with Larry for his money,” said Imani, a part -time student and actor.
“Some of the negative comments I received online were in the lines of” I only use it for his money “or” She's really lesbian and she only uses him for his money. “
The 34-year-old added: 'Some people try to insinuate that our relationship is not real. But it doesn't phase at all.

Imani continued: 'I find it humorous and I can understand why people would assume that he is after all much richer than me.
'I just think it's funny that people think that I would spend ten years with someone and only look at the money.
'Larry has a great heart and an almost perfect character, and that's why I am with him.
'If he was a billionaire and did not have the qualities he possesses, I would not be with him.
“However, it is actually funny when people leave reactions to my tap and say,” Girl, I know your bills have been paid, “because that is true – I never have to worry that the bills are not paid!”
Although viewers claim that Imani is only for money with her partner, the couple signed marital conditions prior to their marriage on 28 December.
