A bride who was branded a ‘paedophile’ for sharing wedding photos with her much younger looking wife has revealed she is pregnant with triplets.
Lauren Evans, 31, was subjected to a barrage of online abuse after marrying 29-year-old Hannah Kaye.
The influencer, from Surrey, tied the knot with her wife in September after initially meeting her on Tinder and dating for two years.
But after Lauren shared professional photos from the special day online, she was falsely accused of being a paedophile by hundreds of Instagram users for ‘marrying someone so young’ – despite there only being a two-year age gap.
Lauren said: ‘Some people said it was cute that my 10-year-old son was walking me down the aisle. Others said it was disgusting that I was kissing a young boy.’
But two days ago, Lauren shared an exciting update to that she was pregnant with triplets.
She posted a video of an ultrasound to her 24k followers on Instagram with the caption: ‘The Triplets.’ Among the hastags she included was #ivfsuccess.

The couple had previously revealed that they had flown to Northern Cyprus to undergo egg retrieval surgery as part of their efforts to have children.
In a follow up post last night, Lauren said it was a ‘bitter sweet day’ after previously experiencing pregnancy heartbreak.
Alongside a post of a pregnancy test, she wrote: ‘It’s a bitter sweet day today, it breaks my heart each year that goes by and all the milestones missed with my daughter Amelia.
‘She will definitely never be forgotten – but what scares me now is being pregnant and blessed with three beautiful babies growing inside me and having the same condition which killed my baby Amelia. It brought so many flash backs and bad memories but all we can do is carry hope.
‘Thinking of everyone who has lost a baby today.’
It comes after the couple were bombarded with vicious comments about their relationship, including: ‘I thought she married a child,’ ‘Why does he look like a 13-year-old boy?’ and ‘Is he old enough to get married?’
Lauren – who made headlines in August after spending thousands of pounds on cosmetic surgery to appear younger, including £3,400 on a new smile and £2,000 on a gastric sleeve in Turkey – said her wife’s youthful appearance is down to ‘luck.’
She explained: ‘I paid thousands of pounds to look younger and change my body and appearance, but my wife is just very lucky to have incredible genes.
‘She is two years younger – I am not getting arrested. Hannah is a tough nut but the comments offends me and they are incredibly hurtful.
‘People think they have the right to call me a predator or a paedophile and that disgusts me.’
Lauren added: ‘The amount of abuse we have received is just ridiculous.’
Hannah, a specialist engineer, explained she has always looked young for her age, and despite approaching 30, is still asked to show ID in bars and supermarkets.

Vile comments left by the trolls include: ‘I thought she married a child,’ ‘Why does he look like a 13-year-old boy?’ and ‘Is he old enough to get married?’
She said: ‘The negativity exploded when we uploaded our wedding photos. But even before that, any photo of us together would attract nasty comments, because I look younger.’
Hannah explained that she has to carry ID at all times, and is often asked to produce valid proof of age to buy lottery tickets and energy drinks.
She continued: ‘We recently went on holiday to Spain and had to show my passport and holiday booking to get an adult wrist band.’
Hannah revealed the comments have even left family members distressed, who are described as being ‘very protective’ of the couple.
She added: ‘Everyone has their opinion of my appearance, I’ve grown up with everyone having an opinion of me and how I look. I just don’t acknowledge any comments; I just block them.’
Looking to their future, the couple are now having IVF treatment, in the hopes that they will soon welcome their first child together
Lauren believes the couple has had the last laugh, as she added: ‘Strangers online can say what they like but we have never been happier’
Hannah insisted she’s ‘heard them all before’ and that there was little use in engaging with the trolls as they are ‘narrow-minded.’
