A young man has spoken out on Twitter and revealed how people always mistake his mother for his girlfriend thanks to her age-defying looks.
22-year-old Jonathan Nguyen from Los Angeles has captured the internet by surprise as he shared photos of him and his mother who is in her 40s.
Despite her age, Jonathan’s mother looks barely twenty and is often mistaken for his girlfriend when the two go out together.
According to the 22-year-old, his mother maintains her youthful looks by living a healthy lifestyle consisting of a balanced diet and regular workouts.
“Having a young Asian mom is great until you see someone your age shooting their shot at her,” Jonathan tweeted.
The post quickly went viral and the people couldn’t help but praise the mum’s looks and say that the two look like partners or brother and sister.
“Woah. She’s beautiful. Thought she was your girlfriend. Said to myself ‘what a beautiful couple.’ Lol,” someone expressed.
“Your mum looks like your sister, what’s her secret,” another one questioned, to which the young man responded by saying: “Lots of fruits and working out every day.”
After Jonathan’s pictures went viral, his story was picked up by the media and he finally revealed the approximate age of his mother.
“To cut to the chase my mom is in her 40s. Her secret to not aging is dieting and exercising. She also has a skin care routine that I’m not too aware of,” he said in an interview with Daily Mail Australia.
Jonathan’s latest post followed just days after the 22-year-old shared his skincare routine that helped him beat adult acne.
“I have sensitive pale Asian skin that shows every single pimple and acne scar that can be seen from miles away,” Jonathan said.
“I really hope this helps (…) Wash your face with room temperature water before warm – clean your face before opening your pores. Make sure your face towels and pillow cases are clean.
“A few diet recommendations: Stay away from Chips and Sugar – I was addicted to hot Cheetos which was the main cause of my acne. Drink water! Two liters of water should be enough depending on how active you are.”
