A woman has defended her relationship with her partner who is 33 years older than her.
When 27-year-old Carrie Leigh first met Randy, who was 60 at the time, said that she had a very clear goal with him.
Speaking on YouTube series Love Don't Judge, she said that he had initially been attracted to him because 'he went on a lot of holidays.'

And as for her intent when they first got together, she made that very clear in the appearance on the YouTube series.

"My first intention when I met Randy was to basically milk him dry," she said.
"I wanted to get from him what I could and peace out."
Well, that's nice and clear.
When the pair were first together, Carrie - who is younger than some of Randy's sons - would frequently ask for money and support.

But now Carrie is a stay-at-home girlfriend, while Randy goes to work in sales.
Carrie said that this is a far cry from how things started, saying: "I actually thought it was going to be more of a business transaction."
Randy added: "I would get a message [saying], 'Hey can you do me a favour and help me out because, you know, I’m low on money.'"

But then Carrie decided she didn't want this kind of relationship anymore, so decided to ghost Randy.

She said: "I didn’t message him for months. I said: 'I’m going to change my life, I’m going to do the right thing, I’m going to get a job.'"
But when Randy checked in on her, things changed. He offered to buy her a car so she wouldn't have to walk to and from work.
And not just any car either, it seems.
He said: "I ended up buying her a BMW."

After a year of dating long distance, Carrie wanted to meet him in person.
She said: "I felt sorry that I was kind of neglecting him and his feelings when he was doing so much for me."
Finally, the pair got together.

Carrie shared: "He sat me down one day and said: 'Make a list of all your problems, and we’ll check them off one by one.'
"And probably a week later he said to me: 'If you give me a year I’ll change your life.'
"I had a different mindset [when we first met], but when you fall in love with somebody then you appreciate them for what they are."
Randy has also noticed a difference, saying: "I’ve seen a change in the way she treats me in the beginning [compared to the] last two or three years."
As for the age gap, they still get looks. Carrie said: "People typically assume that I’m a gold digger, or I have daddy issues."
Even so, the couple don't let this get to them.
