Couple Overcomes Harsh Criticism and Announces They’re Expecting Triplets
In a world where love should be celebrated without judgment, Lauren Kaye, 31, and her partner Hannah, 29, have faced unnecessary and hurtful criticisms simply for being in love. When the couple tied the knot last summer in a beautiful, intimate ceremony, they were excited to celebrate their commitment, but their happiness was soon overshadowed by online trolls and hurtful accusations.
Some critics went as far as to call Lauren a “paedophile” simply because of the noticeable age difference between the couple, and because Hannah, despite being 29, is often mistaken for looking much younger. Despite these cruel comments, Lauren has taken them with remarkable grace, refusing to let the negativity bother her. “I take it with a pinch of salt. I’m very calm, and the comments online don’t bother me,” she shared.
However, what bothers Lauren more is the way strangers treat them when they are out in public. Often, people assume that Hannah is Lauren’s child, not her wife, and that misconception has caused frustration. “It does bother me when we’re out and people speak to me assuming she’s my child,” she admits.
Hannah, who embraces her youthful appearance, has also faced criticism, including suggestions that she change her wardrobe to avoid the negative attention. But she remains steadfast in her confidence, saying, “It’s 2025, and having a ‘butch partner’ isn’t exactly obscure. It’s nothing I should feel compelled to hide.”
Lauren and Hannah’s love story began two years ago on Tinder, and just seven months after Lauren proposed in January 2024, they were married. Their journey together hasn’t been without challenges, but the couple is determined to create the family they’ve always dreamed of. They are excited to become parents to triplets via IVF in Cyprus, a process that Lauren started with Hannah after struggling to find suitable IVF options in the UK.
Lauren, who already has two children from a previous relationship, is thrilled to embark on this new chapter with the love and support of Hannah by her side. In fact, the couple recently announced that they are expecting triplets after their first IVF attempt, a moment they shared with their followers on social media. “I woke up to the triplets wiggling away (after they kept me up with heartburn most of the bloody night!),” Lauren shared on Instagram, expressing her joy despite the challenges.
The couple has also been transparent about the financial hurdles they are facing. After Hannah lost her job and with the triplets at high risk of being born early, they decided to set up a GoFundMe page to help cover medical costs. Though Lauren was initially hesitant, the overwhelming support from their followers encouraged them to go ahead. They’ve expressed their gratitude for the kindness, even from those who have spread negativity in the past.
Despite the trolls continuing to spread hurtful comments, Lauren and Hannah are focused on their future and excited for the arrival of their triplets. The couple remains united in love and support, determined to build a life filled with happiness and positivity, regardless of what anyone else thinks.
