When it comes to celebrity relationships, is age really just a number? A recent study says that the less of an age difference there is between partners, the more likely a relationship will last. Cheryl Cole and her boyfriend, Liam Payne, are 10 years apart. The 34-year-old “X-Factor” judge and the 24-year-old former One Direction singer started dating in 2016 and welcomed son Bear together in 2017.
In 2013, Tina Turner married her long-time love Erwin Bach after dating for over 25 years. She was 74 at the time of their marriage and he was 58. They are still married today. This is Turner’s second marriage. Her first was to the musician and producer Ike Turner.
