A woman who claimed she had married her stepdad while boasting it was the ‘best decision she had ever made’ has shared the real story behind how she and her husband got together.
Florida-based TikToker Christy, who uses the handle @christywho_, caused quite the stir online after a video of her Vegas wedding last year ended up going viral online.
The short clip showed the couple canoodling in the chapel after saying their I do’s, but it was the caption that caused a problem rather than their PDA.
The footage of the mum-of-three wrapping her legs around her new hubby and giving him a good old snog was also accompanied by on-screen text which read: “Marrying my stepdad was the best decision I’ve ever made.”
As well as this, Christy chucked in a few eye-popping hashtags for good measure, such as ‘#marryyourmomsex’, ‘#agegap’ and ‘#itsworthit’.
Social media users were obviously left stunned by her post, prompting people to flood the comment section under the video – which has a whopping 25.5 million views – with their thoughts.

One simply said: “Excuse me, what?”
Another wrote: “Some things are better left unsaid. This is one of those things.”
A third added: “There’s 7 billion people in the world. Why?”
While a fourth chimed in: “Wait…she slid in there and snatched her mom’s man?”
Naturally, people were pretty curious about how Christy ended up rolling around the sheets and eventually walking down the aisle with a bloke who her mother was apparently dating first.
She ended up sharing a follow-up video last year answering some of the most common questions she had received, while doubling down on her comments about her stepdad-turned-spouse.

“Let’s clear some things up,” Christy said. “Was I ‘groomed’? No.
“Was I minor when I met him? No. Did my stepdad raise me? No. Do me and my mom still talk? Yes. Did he have kids with my mom? No.”
After answering all those burning questions, the content creator was once again on the receiving end of some backlash from those who disapproved of her getting hitched to a man who she claimed was her stepfather.
She seemed to relish in riling up internet users for a few weeks, but Christy then finally came clean about the origin of her relationship in another TikTok video while warning it was ‘not as interesting as the other story’.
The mum revealed that she had actually been brought together with her husband through tragedy, following the death of her beloved older brother Shaun Christopher Harris.
Christy explained that she and her sibling ‘did everything together’ and were inseparable until he got into a fatal motorcycle accident and passed away.

Following his death, she began to grow close with Shaun’s best friend and eventually began dating him although ‘no one thought they would last’.
In the video, Christy said: “Soon after, we got pregnant with our first daughter together, Kali Shine…named after my brother.
“Then came our first son Kash Christopher, who was also named after him.”
The mum said she and her partner had decided to get wed in Las Vegas so they could have a big wedding ‘later down the road’.
Christy explained she found out that she was pregnant with her second daughter, Krue Reign, the day after her nuptials.
“Now y’all can leave my kids and brother alone,” she captioned the clip.
The US woman told the New York Post she had only intended to have a laugh with her husband and poke fun at their 16-year age gap with her initial video.
“I also wanted to prove that everyone will be upset and believe anything they see on the internet nowadays,” Christy added.
“They were mad when I ‘married my stepdad,’ and they were mad when I posted my real story and found out that it wasn’t actually my stepdad. The internet feeds on the drama.
“The amount of death threats I received, wishing that my children were born without arms and legs and they were glad my brother had died, and they wanted to call [child protective services] on me.
“It was absolutely insane.”
LADbible has contacted Christy for further comment.
