Hello everybody, and welcome back to a new video.
Today, I'm gonna be testing out new products.
Gorgeous shades.
Larry is behind me getting ready for the day,
say, hi babe.
Hi babe.
Let me just tell you guys what I'm doing
with my healthy eating.
Larry, do you know what this is?
The Black Tea London Classic Serum, Serum?
(slight screech)
We're gonna have to get the buzzer out.
All done.
(slight gong)
Well, as you just saw, Mindy was preoccupied
with talking to someone off camera during her show.
Now, her viewers also noticed,
and they got curious and they asked Mindy,
who this mystery person was standing behind the scenes?
So she revealed the secret.
(upbeat music)
Ever since I really started filming,
people became curious, they noticed that I was married,
and this, everybody, is my husband.
Hi!
His name is Larry.
Obviously, as you can tell, we do have an age difference.
(swoosh)
I'm going to be 28 this year, and Larry just turned 58.
We have been married for three years.
And we met six and a half years ago, when I was 20.
And he was actually the police officer.
He came to a little fender-bender car accident that I had.
For first year, I didn't introduce Larry on my channel
because I was afraid of opening ourselves up.
The channel sort of blew up.
Hi, everybody and welcome back.
And we got a lot of love and support,
but we were also faced with a lot of hate.
Recently we have developed a hater
that has seeked our personal information,
and has actually sent things to our home.
Hi, Dr Phil, how do I not feel personally attacked online
when I receive a negative comment
about my marriage to Larry?
Thank you.
(dramatic music)
Okay, so what was it like when you met Larry?
So when I first met him,
I was actually in a mild fender-bender car crash,
Right? Yeas (chuckles).
And he wasn't the other driver?
No, he wasn't (chuckles).
He was the cop.
He was, he was the officer
that came out of the car to take the report.
And it was funny
because the friend that I was with in the car
we were laughing like, "oh, will it cute officer?"
And then he got out of the car, and I was like,
"Oh, he's cute, but he's a little bit older,
"he's too old for me."
I had to get a police report.
I went up there, and he asked me a strange question,
if I liked my photo taken?
And I was like, "Sure, why not?"
And that's how we started texting.
Uh-huh.
He's a photographer (chuckles), just to clear that up,
'cause that sounds kind of strange.
Yeah, I was gonna ask you to clarify that
'cause it sounded a little creepy.
(audience laughing)
Unless he was a photographer, and I get it.
So Larry, when you first met,
did you worry, you weren't gonna have anything in common
with a 20-year-old girl?
Absolutely, yes, I had no clue whatsoever,
that this would develop into a relationship and a marriage.
I made a comment once about,
me being with Mindy, was almost like me winning the lottery.
And that was kinda the floodgates
to open up comments about, "Oh, you won the lottery,
"you're rich, she's a gold-digger."
And how long did it take your family and friends
to get behind this relationship and support it?
I kept it secret for a year
because I was afraid to tell anybody.
My best friend knew, but that was it.
And then I finally told my mom,
she was worried that it was a phase.
But she still was kinda supportive.
She met Larry and everything went good--
And what age difference between your mother and Larry?
Ah, is it 20 years?
No wait, she's 48, 10 years.
And he is older than my parents which is a (voice drowns)--
So he's older than your mother?
Yes.
By 10 years? Yes.
So you have this channel-- We do.
That you do, and you have a lot of people
on your channel that follow you,
and people started asking who you talking to?
So you decided, "I'm gonna introduce, this is my husband."
And when you did, what happened?
So at first, a lot of the comments were really supportive.
But then I think the video started getting shared,
which brought in a lot of hate, a lot of negativity.
People were not so nice, they were a little nasty.
Well, here is some of the comments.
"Larry is a blanking pedophile."
"Mindy is being raped by her father."
"Mental issues"
"Gold-digger."
"You're waiting for this saggy, bald man to die,
"so you can collect the check."
Then other bullying,
stranger called Mindy's phone on repeat, right?
Somebody just kept calling you and calling you.
Worse than that.
And then the caller
also cranked your mom and dad, right?
Caller said to Mindy's Dad,
"Why are you letting a pedophile, blank your daughter?"
A stranger sent pizza to your home,
just things to harass you? Yeah.
And this got to you? It did.
Honestly it bugged you? It does especially,
when you don't feel safe leaving your home
or even being in your home.
I woke up that night after receiving that first phone call,
I honestly visualized him standing in the doorway.
