Viral Filipina Married To Husband 42-Years Older Claps Back At Haters Who Label Her A “Gold Digger”
A Filipina who married a much older man is defending her marriage.
Jackie, born and raised in the Philippines, met retired American scientist Dave through a dating app while he was exploring the Philippines. She was 21 years old at the time while he was 63. They reportedly clicked instantly and got married the next year.
One day, I saw her profile—I practically jumped out of my chair. I was so impressed by what I saw.
— Dave
They are still together over six years later. Now 28, Jackie posts videos about their relationship on the TikTok account @dave_jackie2818 which has over 60,000 followers.

She is not afraid to respond to haters who often ask if Jackie is her husband’s “adopted daughter” or those who accuse her of being a “gold-digger who is only after a green card.” She says that their “relationship is amazing” and that her family “is okay” with her dating someone decades older.
We don’t mind them [the negative reactions] because we know ourselves that we are in love. People are very nice. when they see us together in public.
