This couple has a 34-year-age gap and people don't like it

A couple with a 34-year age gap have faced some serious backlash over their new romance.

Bollywood actor Milind Soman, 52, and his 18-year-old girlfriend Ankita Konwar have come under fire after they shared a series of loved-up selfies from their first holiday together.

The pair, who have reportedly been dating for four months, are being criticised online over their huge age-gap, which appears to have left many feeling uncomfortable.

Another noted that while their blossoming relationship wasn't illegal, it was "creepy."

Milind and Ankita are currently enjoying a holiday to Norway, where they appear to have been enjoying the cold weather.

The Indian actor had previously been married to a french actress, Mylene Jampanoi, but they divorced in 2009.

But while some people saw red over the unusual coupling, many stepped up in support.

The couple themselves are yet to comment on the outrage.

But judging from the number of happy snaps they've been sharing, it doesn't seem like they're too fazed.
