Florida woman who claimed she married her STEPDAD shares their ‘real story’
A Florida woman who went viral after claiming she married her stepfather has come clean about their relationship, saying her husband is actually her late brother’s best friend, not her mother’s ex.
Christy, who goes by the username @Christywho_, surprised TikTok last week when she shared a six second video of herself passionately kissing her ‘stepdad’ at their Las Vegas wedding while her friends applauded.
“Marrying my stepdad was the best decision I’ve ever made,” the 26-year-old wrote in the text on the screen. She added the hashtags #marryyourmomsex and #agegap in the caption.
Christy has since claimed it was a joke and admitted that their real love story “isn’t nearly as interesting” as the one she made up.

‘BOMBASTIC SIDE EYE 360 HEAD TURN,’ wrote one person, while another added: ‘No side eye here, I’m totally focused on the head when judging.’
‘There are 7 billion people in the world. Because?’ someone else asked.
Others couldn’t resist pulling some jokes, with one TikTok user calling it the “real version of keeping it in the family.”
“He really went from ‘dad’ to ‘dad,’ didn’t he?” another commenter chimed in, while someone else pointed out: “There should never be a man who can say ‘that’s not how your mom did it.” .
Viewers also had plenty of questions for Christy, who doubled down on her outrageous claims in a follow-up clip in which she still referred to her husband as her stepfather.
“Let’s clear some things up until story time is released,” he wrote in the on-screen text. ‘I was ready”? No. Was he a minor when I met him? No. Did my stepfather raise me? No. Do my mom and I still talk? Yes. He had children with my mom? No.’
