She Was Called a ‘Pedophile’ For Marrying a ’10-Year-Old’, Well Now They’re Having Triplets
What should have been a joyful milestone for a newly married couple instead became an unexpected lesson in online cruelty. Lauren Kaye, 31, says she and her wife never anticipated the reaction they would face after sharing images from their wedding ceremony on social media. The photos, meant to celebrate a deeply personal moment, quickly drew waves of hostile and disturbing comments from strangers.
After Lauren posted images from their intimate summer wedding, online users began leaving remarks questioning the legitimacy of the relationship. Some falsely claimed Lauren appeared to be her partner’s mother, while others made far more troubling accusations based solely on her wife’s youthful appearance. Lauren says the tone of the messages quickly escalated from ignorance to something far darker.
Her wife, Hannah Kaye, 29, has a naturally boyish look that critics seized upon, using it to label the marriage inappropriate. The couple firmly rejects those claims as offensive and baseless. Lauren describes the commentary as “madness,” explaining that it says far more about the people posting it than about their relationship.
Although the online abuse was relentless, Lauren says she has learned not to let strangers dictate her happiness. Over time, she developed a thick skin and often scrolls past the harshest remarks. Still, some messages were impossible to ignore. Among the comments left on their wedding photos were cruel jokes implying Hannah was a child being escorted by her “mother,” statements Lauren describes as deeply unsettling.
While much of the harassment unfolded online, Lauren notes that the emotional impact extends beyond social media. The constant judgment has turned what should have been a celebration of love into a public spectacle, forcing the couple to confront misconceptions that persist well beyond the screen.
Despite the negativity, Lauren and Hannah have chosen not to retreat or apologize for who they are. Instead, they remain focused on protecting their peace, even as the attention surrounding their marriage continues to grow.
