Tina Malone: Age doesn't matter
He's a highly intelligent and articulate man and I say good luck to him
With a partner 19-years her junior, former Shameless actress Tina Malone knows a thing or two about age-gaps.
So she was quick to wish Stephen Fry all the best after it was confirmed yesterday that the 57-year-old has given formal notice to wed Elliott Spencer who is 30 years younger than him.
Tina met Paul on a bootcamp in 2010 and have gone on to have daughter Flame, now one.
Tina said: "He listens to Biggie and 2Pac and I'm Carpenters and Barbara Streisland. I like sub-titled European films and he likes action but there is chemistry. Falling in love comes from chemistry.
"'He brings a certain amount of wisdom. After ten years in the army going to Iraq and Afghanistan he brings a certain maturity and sense to our relationship whereas I'm a bit reckless."
Paul said: "She's an amazing woman. If it works, it works. The sex is great, the cooking is amazing. The older women get the better they get.
"If Stephen is happy I'm made up for him and he's been through a lot."
Tina also talks about her upcoming plastic surgery operation in two weeks time.
"It's kind of the cherry on the cake. I'm doing it for me," she added.
