Woman Ignores 29-Year Age Difference To Marry Ex’s Stepfather
Woman Ignores 29-Year Age Gap To Marry Ex-Husband’s Stepfather
A woman who married her ex-man’s stepfather – 30 – says she has found her soul mate despite her age.
Erica Witzle, 31, met her now-husband Jeff, 60, when she was 16.
She met her first husband, her friend’s brother, Jeff’s stepson. The couple had a baby together.
But years later, when both relationships failed, the couple realized they had feelings for each other.
When she divorced, her father-in-law Jeff, an engineer, offered her a shoulder to cry on.
She didn’t want to hurt anyone, she tried to fight, but by 2017 they had both ended their respective marriages.
They met to confess their love to each other and made it public.
The couple had their daughter, Brexlee, two years after getting married, in August 2018.
“Jeff is the young soul and I’m the old soul. He laughs when I tell him, but it’s all worked out, and Justin was the reinforced person.”
“We really like where we are and we’re going to enjoy the time we have.”
“We never look at the age difference, we just fall in love the way we are.

Comments from married couples:
Erica comments, “I started dating Justin, who was my friend’s brother at the time, before I married him at 19.”
“We met up with him and went on a date, and for some reason it seemed like we were supposed to get married, like it was the right thing to do.”
“His family and my family said we should do it and that we were perfect for each other.”
While on Jeff’s part, he expressed, “Me, I created a team and I wanted to be a director and travel and do something out of the ordinary.”
“It was hard for us because we couldn’t connect on this level.”
Jeff’s marriage to Justin’s mother came to an end at the end of 2016 and that’s when they were finally able to get married.
One day, “we sat in the car and it was like, ‘Will you marry me?’ I was like, ‘Duh.’
It wasn’t a romantic suggestion, but it was exactly what we wanted.”
Erica’s ex Justin gives his blessing to the couple.
Erica and I have a son together, and we think of him above all else, concluded her now-husband Jeff.
