His girlfriend is 25 years old. She is a model. In the past, we have some gossips about him. He has a little girlfriend but not that young. it’s amazed to us. This man is below average, so we haven’t think that he will get a young beautiful girlfriend.

I heard a gossip that there is a old man who got  a new girlfriend. This man is 35 years old, his new girlfriend is younger than him. In my company, you are considered old if you are still not married at 35 years old. His girlfriend is 25 years old. She is a model. In the past, we had some gossips about him. He had a little girlfriend but not that young, we were very surprised. This man‘s appearance is below average, so we never thought that he would get a young beautiful girlfriend.
