Adrienne met Shafik when she was introduced to him through friends, and the two immediately hit it off, despite the fact that the 63-year-old is older than her parents.

Shafik has been married five times and has six children, the oldest of whom is 33, 12 years older than Adrienne.

However, despite the age difference, both families are supportive of the relationship, with Adrienne stating that her mother is Shafik’s “best friend”.

Speaking with Love don’t judgeShe said: “My mom is like his best friend, she doesn’t text me, she texts him.”

Shafik’s daughter Yasmin said she was initially uncomfortable with the relationship but has since learned to accept it.

She said: “When I met her, I was a little uncomfortable because she is younger than me.

“As time went on, I saw that they were genuinely happy together, so I tried to focus on that and be grateful that he had someone to share his life with.”

Soon after the couple started dating, Adrienne began posting videos of the duo on TikTok.

They instantly hooked up a bit, but received a lot of negative comments from trolls, who said Shafik looks like Shrek and accused Adrienne of just wanting their money.

Shafik, owner of a chain of auto repair shops, lives in a huge mansion, complete with a swimming pool and jacuzzi.

He also promised Adrienne that for her 21st birthday he would buy her a Mercedes-Benz G-Class, which could cost up to £200,000.

However, she insisted that she doesn’t care about his money and would keep it if he lived in a tiny apartment and worked as a cleaner.

Shafik said, “When you meet someone and you feel like a soulmate, when you connect, you connect.

“I live for today and I am very young at heart.
