A woman who is dating a man twice her age said she faces stigma because of the age gap - and that women will stop in the street to ask if she's ok when she goes out with her partner.
Samantha Stinchcomb, 25, is in a relationship with 50-year-old Bill Hughes and said that she often encounters people who react badly when they learn of the age difference.
The pair from Maryland, USA, have lost friends because of it and Samantha said that she is sometimes stopped in the street by women who want to make sure she's not in danger.
