well get ready because we've got a list

of the 15 most unusual couples you won't

believe exist

we're talking about couples that will

make you do a double take scratch your

head and wonder how in the world they

ended up together for example did you

know that there's a couple out there who

are separated by a whopping 53 years yes

we take a look at some of the most

unexpected Pairs and see if you're ready

to handle the shock

first up we have Mason Reese and Sarah

Russi if you don't know who these two

are let us give you the lowdown

Mason is a former child actor who became

famous in the 70s for his cherubic face

and wisecracking personality

remember those commercials for Underwood

deviled ham that was him he was a child

star a household name and one of the

most recognizable faces on TV

Sarah on the other hand is a

self-proclaimed hot mess who works as an

adult model so how did these two end up

together well this is where it gets Wild

it all started when Sarah saw Mason's

adorable face from across the room at a

horror convention called The Chiller

theater Expo in New Jersey

she had heard about the former Child

Star from a friend and was instantly

intrigued being a modern day romantic

she did what any self-respecting woman

would do she looked him up on Facebook

they hit it off and decided to meet in

person at the convention Mason arrived

at Sarah's table and the Sparks flew

they exchanged stories had some drinks

and the rest is history despite what

some may say Sarah insists that their

love is not based on Mason's fame or

money she has worked as a sugar baby

before taking money from older men in

exchange for a relationship but she

claims that's not what's going on

between her and Mason

despite the 31-year age gap between them

Mason and Sarah's love story is one for

the ages their love story may be

unconventional but that's what makes it

so fascinating what do you make of all

this is it true love or just a publicity

stunt

we can't say for sure but we can't stop

talking about it our next couple has

taken it up a notch in a world where

swiping left and right on dating apps

has become the norm sal9000 has taken a

different approach to finding love he's

turned to his trusty Nintendo DS in the

dating simulation game love plus to find

his soul mate and oh boy did he find her

meet Nene anagasaki the Digital Love Of

sal9000's Life the two met in the

virtual world of love plus and hit it

off immediately

sal9000 and otaku obsessed with video

games and fantasy worlds found himself

falling head over heels for Nene

but he didn't just stop at calling her

his wife in the otaku tradition he took

it one step further and married her in a

real-life ceremony which he broadcasted

Live on YouTube for all the world to see

and why not love is love no matter if

it's digital or not

the newlyweds even went on a honeymoon

to Guam with sal9000 bringing his

Nintendo DS and Nene along for the ride

and now the couple can be found going on

dates around Tokyo with sal9000 taking

pictures of Nene in front of famous

landmarks and posting them on social

media

but don't be fooled this is not your

ordinary video game character Nene is

equipped with a voice recognition

software which means sal9000 can have

conversations with her and even play

Rock Paper Scissors together

now that's what we call Love in the

digital age literally

and despite any possible upgrades or new

versions of the game

sal9000 has vowed to remain faithful to

his One and Only Love he won't cheat and

he'll continue playing love plus until

the end of time so here's to sal9000 and

nanae anagasaki the couple that proves

love comes in all shapes and forms even

if it's in the world of a video game now

let's switch gears to Annalisa and David

Hackleman whose love story is just as

unique Annalisa who was diagnosed with

polycystic ovary syndrome struggled with

excessive hair growth on her face and

body from the young age of 13. the

constant need to remove the hair made

her feel self-conscious and eventually

led to agoraphobia but all that changed

when she met the love of her life David

through a mutual friend's Facebook page

and the couple clicked instantly

as they spent more and more time

together David started to notice that

there was something a little different

about Annalisa it wasn't until she began

spending nights at his place that he

noticed the hair growth on her face at

first it was just a little stubble here

and there but eventually David realized

that Annalisa had a full beard

despite this unexpected development

their love continued to Blossom in fact

he helped Annalisa overcome her

insecurities and helped her in becoming

more confident in her skin that's true

love isn't it with David's support

Annalisa took longer and longer breaks

from shaving until she was comfortable

not shaving at all

Annalisa who works as a photographer has

learned to accept her facial fuzz and

embrace her natural beauty they are

proof that when you find the right

person they will love and accept you for

who you are flaws and all

just when you thought you had heard it

all get ready for this one

here we have Tom and Stacy Crutchfield a

couple who have managed to overcome the

challenges of a 32-year age Gap

Stacy was just a young woman seeking

medical help for her Pet iguana when she

stumbled upon Tom's expertise in the

field

she reached out to him on Facebook and

the two struck up a conversation

but it wasn't until several years later

when Stacey 38 finally paid Tom 70 a

visit at his reptile farm that their

relationship really took off

despite their 32-year age difference the

couple hit it off and quickly fell in

love they now live and work together on

Tom's Farm where they care for their

beloved reptiles

in May 2018 they tied the knot in a

beautiful ceremony surrounded by their

family and friends

but not everyone approves of their

unconventional love story in fact they

often face judgment and criticism when

they're out in public

people often mistake Stacy for Tom's

granddaughter but the couple remains

unfazed by the scrutiny as Tom puts it

you can't help who you fall in love with

and for these two age is just a number

our next couple is an ultimate Rebel of

body art Gabriella Peralta and Victor

Hugo Peralta their love story began at a

motorcycle event in Buenos Aires in 1999

where they met and fell in love at first

sight

from that moment on they knew they were

meant to be together and pursue their

shared passion for body art

over the years the couple has amassed an

incredible collection of body

modifications including 50 piercings

eight microdermals 14 body implants 5

dental implants four ear expanders two

ear bolts and even a forked tongue

their most striking modification is the

sclera tattoo which covers the white

part of their eyes giving their eyeballs

a haunting Inky black appearance

despite their unconventional appearance

Gabriella and Victor are very much in

love and devoted to each other

they share a deep bond and a mutual

passion for self-expression and artistic

freedom for them body modifications are

not just a way to stand out or shock

others but a means of personal

expression and a form of Art

their unique style has earned them the

nickname cherubs from hell but though

they don't let the Judgment of others

affect them

Gabriella and Victor's relationship is a

testament to the power of love and

self-expression

from Argentina's cherubs from Hell let's

head to a more bizarre couple Amanda

Rogers a 47 year old woman has

reportedly tied the knot with none other

than her beloved pet Terrier Sheba

Yes you heard that right Amanda married

her loyal furry companion in a ceremony

in Split Croatia in August 2012 in front

of 200 guests but before you start

questioning the legality of this bizarre

Union let's make one thing clear Amanda

knows the wedding wasn't real in the

legal sense but to her it was a special

way to celebrate the bond she shares

with her four-legged friend

according to Amanda Sheba had been in

her life for years making her laugh and

comforting her during her lowest moments

she couldn't imagine a more loyal and

loving life partner Amanda had a brief

marriage about 20 years before marrying

Sheba which ended within a few months

but this time she was determined to get

things right so she got down on one knee

and proposed to her furry friend and to

her Delight sheba's tail wagged in

approval

some might scoff at the idea of Marrying

an animal but for Amanda Sheba is more

than just a pet she's a constant source

of joy and love and the two share an

unbreakable Bond now we've got a love

story that's a tall order meet jolison

Fernandez de Silva the tallest man in

Brazil standing at a towering seven feet

eight inches tall

but don't let his height intimidate you

because jolison has a heart of gold and

a love story that will leave you

swooning despite his impressive stature

jollison just wanted to live a normal

life like any other person

so at the age of 21 he took a bold step

and underwent surgery to remove a benign

tumor on his pituitary gland which

helped slow his growth but even with his

Newfound confidence he never expected to

find love let alone with someone who was

a mere 550 tall

enter even mediros one of jolison's

admirers who stole his heart the first

time he laid eyes on her

it was an unusual sight to say the least

with jolison towering over even like a

giant among Mortals but their love is

unfathomable and they've been happily

married ever since

jolison's unique appearance has made him

something of a local celebrity in his

hometown and even attracted attention

from television invites but fame and

fortune mean nothing to him as long as

he has his beloved even by his side our

next story is nothing short of ordinary

either Paulo Gabriel de Silva Barros and

katuchia Lee hoshino a couple from

Brazil who may just be the world's

shortest married couple with a combined

height of just

181.41 centimeter these lovebirds were

certified as the world record holders

for the shortest married couple in

September 2016.

their love story began in 2006 when they

first met on Orkut a now defunct social

media platform however katuchia wasn't

initially interested and even blocked

Paolo on instant messaging but Paulo's

persistence eventually won her over and

they started chatting online regularly

after two years of online conversations

they finally met in person on December

20th 2008.

the chemistry between them was

undeniable and they officially started

dating on December 29th of the same year

despite living in different cities they

maintained a long-distance relationship

for four years visiting each other every

couple of months but eventually katiutia

decided to move from her hometown of

londrina to Paulo's Town itopeva it

didn't take long for them to realize

that they were meant to be together

their love has been the subject of both

admiration and ridicule people are

fascinated by their height difference

from the general population and they

often attract unwanted attention from

strangers but they have learned to deal

with the attention and their love has

only grown stronger as a result

despite the challenges they face Paolo

and katyutsya are determined to stay

together and continue to set an example

for others they may be short in stature

but their love is larger than life love

knows no bounds and for two Tiny Tots

from Syria it seems that their love

story is nothing short of a fairy tale

in a world where most of us struggle to

find our soul mates meet Hala a precious

three-year-old and her devoted fiancee

Khalid just five years of age

despite their young age these two

lovebirds are determined to make their

love story a reality

khalid's father an only child from his

marriage that lasted over 25 years was

stunned when his son fell head over

heels in love with Hala on a family trip

to the Sea Town of Latakia

little did he know that his son's

infatuation with the Charming little

girl was much more than just a holiday

Romance

after returning to Holmes Khalid was

heartbroken and refused to return to

Nursery without his young sweetheart by

his side

determined to make their Love official

Khalid and his family made an audacious

move and approached hala's parents to

ask for her hand in marriage

to everyone's surprise they agreed

the couple has already exchanged Rings a

symbol of their unyielding love and they

talked to each other every single day

while some may argue that they are too

young to understand the complexities of

Love and Marriage their parents firmly

believe that the children's happiness is

what truly matters

they acknowledge that Khalid or Hala may

change their minds in the future but for

now they are committed to each other

Khalid has even vowed to wait until he

turns 15 to make holla his beloved wife

who knows what the future holds for this

young couple

one thing is for sure their love story

is one that we can't wait to see unfold

our next story is out of this world

Amanda Teague a northern Irish woman has

found her true love in the afterlife

with none other than a ghostly 18th

century Haitian pirate Amanda's Journey

To Love started in the most unexpected

way

it all began with a meditation session

where she first met the ghostly figure

of her future husband Jack Teague

but let's just say their first meeting

didn't go so smoothly

Amanda was not impressed with his

Interruption and she let him know it

however Jack was persistent and after

several visits Amanda decided to give

him a chance

what started as a conversation with a

ghost soon turned into something much

more serious

Amanda became convinced that Jack was

the inspiration behind Captain Jack

Sparrow in the popular Pirates of the

Caribbean movies

as she explored her spirituality further

she realized that Jack was her kindred

spirit and she decided to marry him

that's right Amanda Teague married a

ghost

in a ceremony officiated by a

self-described shaman on a boat in the

Atlantic Ocean Amanda said her vows to

Jack with a spiritual medium allowing

him to say I do in return

since then Amanda and Jack have been

living their best afterlife together

going on dates having arguments and even

have had a pregnancy scare

despite the fact that Jack died almost

300 years ago their love knows no limits

of course their love story is not

without its Skeptics some have

questioned the legality of their

marriage While others have raised

eyebrows at the idea of a woman marrying

a ghost but for Amanda and jack their

love is real and they are co-writing a

book to help other women find their

spiritual partners

will Amanda and Jack continue to push

the boundaries of what is possible in

love or will their passion come to a

Bittersweet end one thing is for sure

this is a love story that will go down

in history

move over Ken and Barbie there's a new

couple in town Zee Tian Rong a 36 year

old man from Hong Kong who has recently

become engaged to a silicone soul mate

mochi Z claimed that he first became

attracted to dolls 10 years ago when he

spotted one in a store in Hong Kong's

retail District however a doll that cost

80 000 Yuan at that time was way out of

his budget and he had to put those

thoughts aside

years later in 2019 Z found a silicone

doll on the internet that was on sale

for about 10 000 Yuan so he ordered it

Zee who lives with his parents has

devoted all his time and attention to

his new love since taking delivery of

her from mainland China in late 2019.

he's even lavished expensive gifts on

her including an iPhone 12. in a bizarre

ceremony attended by friends and family

earlier this month Z became betrothed to

Mochi however he's quick to clarify that

he's never violated her and he won't

even kiss her for fear of damaging her

sensitive skin

every night Mochi sits in a chair by Z's

bed while he sleeps before going to bed

he bathes her with a damp cloth and

applies talcum powder despite the

absurdity of it all Z insists that he

respects Mochi and only wants her as a

companion and has been Inseparable from

his beloved mochi

the dolphin addict claims that human

girlfriends always ask him for something

but Mochi demands nothing from him so

she is easier to date Z says that he's

had human girlfriends before but he's

only attracted to dolls now regardless

of how odd it may seem Z's Devotion to

Mochi is real and he's not afraid to

show the world just how much he loves

her who are we to judge our next love

story is just as interesting and even

more unusual

it All Began in a library where a young

Kyle Jones locked eyes with an elderly

woman named Marjorie McCool she was 60

years his senior and yet Kyle couldn't

resist the spark that he felt he asked

her out and she said yes many scoffed at

their relationship claiming that Kyle

was simply after marjorie's wealth

but they were wrong Marjorie didn't have

much to offer in that department

what Kyle was after was something that

money couldn't buy true love

over time Kyle and marjorie's

relationship blossomed into something

beautiful Marjorie who had been single

for 37 years after separating from her

ex-husband had finally found a man who

made her heart sing

and Kyle well he was into everything

Marjorie was including her wrinkles and

platinum hair but there was a twist

their relationship wasn't exclusive

at first Marjorie struggled with the

idea of Kyle seeing other women but

eventually she learned to adapt and as

for Kyle he simply couldn't get enough

of Marjorie and he was continually

Amazed by her despite what naysayers

might have said Kyle and Marjorie had

found true love

and they weren't going to let anyone

bring them down

next up we have the story of zelmira and

Herbert Fisher this is a tale of Love

commitment and resilience in the face of

some of the world's most tumultuous

events that lasted nearly a century

despite the challenges of the Great

Depression World War II the Korean War

the Vietnam War and the Civil Rights

Movement they remained steadfastly

devoted to each other they met in North

Carolina when Herbert was just 21 years

old and zelmira was 16.

despite their age difference they fell

head over heels in love and knew they

were meant to be together

they raised a family of five children

and even as they faced struggles and

hardships their love for each other

never wavered their secret to a long and

happy marriage was simple respect

affection and a commitment to working

through any challenges that came their

way

they never went to bed angry and always

made time for each other no matter what

their love and commitment to each other

were so strong that they were recognized

by the Guinness Book of World Records in

2008 as the oldest living couple in the

world with a remarkable 84 years of

marriage zelmira and Herbert's love

story is a testament to the power of

love and the importance of commitment

even in the face of adversity

let's move from a heartfelt unusual to

straight up weird we have all been there

having a hard time choosing the one just

like Maria Maria was a woman Torn

Between Love and responsibility she was

already married to Peter and had two

children with him when she met Paul and

her heart was captured but Maria

couldn't imagine leaving her husband and

kids nor living without Paul

so she came up with a solution that

would change their lives forever she

suggested they all lived together in the

same house it was a crazy idea but the

three of them moved in together

at first it was awkward for the men who

weren't used to sharing a house with

another man let alone their wife's lover

But as time went on they started to see

the benefits of the arrangement they

shared the chores and the bills and the

children had two father figures in their

lives years went by and they celebrated

birthdays holidays and anniversaries as

one big family they watched their

children grow up get married and have

children of Their Own

in the end Maria knew that she had made

the right choice

her love for both men had created an

unusual but beautiful life love

transcends all barriers and for Anton

craft and China Bell it transcended not

only height but also gender Norms Anton

a four feet tall weightlifting Champion

has achieved world-renowned success for

his ability to lift four times his own

body weight

meanwhile China stands at a towering six

foot three and is a proud transgender

woman who underwent gender reassignment

surgery despite their striking physical

differences Anton and China share a deep

love for one another that has captured

the attention of the world their love

story began when they met at a Miami

nightclub and they quickly fell for each

other's unique personalities and shared

interests as they got to know each other

better they learned to embrace each

other's differences and found joy in

celebrating their individuality Anton

was drawn to China's strength and

confidence while China appreciated

Anton's determination and passion for

his sport

their relationship hasn't been without

its challenges as they have faced

criticism and judgment from those who

don't understand their unconventional

love when it comes to love there are no

rules these couples prove that love

knows no boundaries and that the Heart

Wants What It Wants it's unusual

unexpected and sometimes even a little

bit wild but it's always beautiful
