I’m tiny & my hubby, 35, is ‘big & tall’… trolls reckon I look like ‘one of his kids’ but I think we’re couple goals
A WOMAN and her husband have insisted they’re ”couple goals”, despite being routinely mistaken for a father and daughter duo.
Carolyn and Drew Fultz have been together for a decade and have encountered the mix-up time and time again during their relationship, even after tying the knot and falling pregnant.
The fresh-faced mum, who is 32, has even openly admitted the struggle, crediting the constant confusion to her ”baby face” and the 35-year-old’s premature balding.
Combined together with their stark height difference, with Drew’s 6ft body towering over the mini 5’4ft woman, Carolyn said that her hubby is often mistaken to be her ”dad”.
Despite feeling uncomfortable at the start of their journey, the mum-of-three has learnt to see the humorous side, regularly sharing wholesome videos of the two on Instagram.
The proud boy mum, who claimed to once have been a ballerina, said that their two last babies joined the loving family at home, born weighing 9lbs.
”Our size and personalities are opposites but my body loooves pregnancy and birth!” the beauty said.
Carolyn, from Arizona, US, previously said: “This mix-up has been happening ever since we’ve been together. We’ve been together for just over ten years.
It’s a mistake that has been made by people of all ages

“Drew’s been balding since he was in high school. A lot of people corrected me and said I shouldn’t have called him ‘balding’ as he’s already bald.
“The mix-up can happen at the most random times. It probably happens more often than we realise, but I’d say we only get directly asked about it every few months or so.
“It doesn’t happen all the time of course, but it can happen often when we meet people for the first time and they don’t know the context, and they just assume that I’m his daughter instead of his wife.
“It’s a mistake that has been made by people of all ages.
“Initially when it started happening, I was a little uncomfortable by the assumption.
”But we’ve been together for so long, it’s become a bit of a running joke. I just see the humour in it now.
“Before, I felt like I had to prove something by being more mature. But the older I get, it becomes more and more of a compliment that people think I still look young.”
Since sharing a video of the two poking fun at the awkward predicament, the parents have been met with hundreds of comments from stunned social media users.
The adorable clip, which has gone viral racking up more than an astronomical 15million views in just three days, saw the 21-year-old being likened to ”one of his kids”.
