Carly King, 22, with her fiance 58-year-old Billy Potts. The pair are set to marry next week in a traditional white wedding
But their relationship has been dogged by critics and snipers who have hit out at the pair's big age gap, which also sees Mr Potter have three children, aged 27, 29 and 31, older than Miss King and four children.
But despite the negativity the couple, from Woodbridge in Suffolk, say that they love each other to bits and worship the ground each other walks on.
Miss King first met her future fiance aged just 18 in November 2011, when she had a problem with her car.

She explained: 'I had just passed my driving test and my car had a dodgy clutch. My sister knew of Billy and said to take it to him.
'I said ‘can I trust him though?’ I was a bit worried about it because I didn’t know who he was.
'She said ‘yes, of course you can’. So I took it round and he looked at the car and I instantly found him quite attractive.
