Fitness model Brittany Renner has defended herself for going in for younger men when she contributed to the recent relationship-themed topic on Tonight’s Conversation podcast.
Making her submission on why 30-year-old women dating 18-year-old men in recent times, Renner used Jay Z and Beyoncé’s age difference as a case study to prove that there’s nothing wrong with such a relationship.
Rener has been criticised in the past for dating teenager PJ Washington, an NBA player who is currently with the Charlotte Hornets and having a son with him.
The ex-couple reportedly met while Washington was in college and according to The Sun, he was 18 when she was 26.
She said Beyoncé was allegedly 18 when she dated Jay-Z, who was also 12 years older than her.
Beyoncé previously mentioned that she was 18 when she met her husband and 19 when they began dating. While on Tonight’s Conversation, Renner engaged in a discussion about age differences once again.
“There’s a 12-year age gap, is what we’re talking about,” she said in a clip shared on Instagram. “So, if I’m 30 years old and I’m talking to your son that’s 12 years younger than me, what’s the problem?” Randi Rossario Maples told her that just based on life experiences alone, she wouldn’t want a 30-year-old woman dating her teenage son. She added that she has two sons and wouldn’t advise them to date a woman 12 years younger than them, either.
Sh also exposed the double standard in this kind of conversation about men dating younger versus women.
“Immediately the conversation went to comparison, I hold both parties accountable,” Maples replied. Check out the clip below.
