Selling Sunset: How Big Is Romain's Age Gap With Mary Fitzgerald

The Selling Sunset couple Mary Fitzgerald and Romain Bonnet have been a fan-favorite couple for five seasons, and viewers are curious about their large age gap. Throughout their time on the show, they have had to deal with issues in their relationship due to being in different stages of their lives. From starting a family to fighting about finances, they have had some ups and downs, but still manage to make things work. Although they got married during season 2, fans found out that Mary and Romain had actually officially married prior to being on the series.

Many Selling Sunset fans were dubious about Mary and Romain’s relationship when she introduced him as her boyfriend in season 1. The pastry chef and model was much younger than Selling Sunset's Mary, who has a son from a previous marriage, and an established career at The Oppenheim Group. Along with co-star Davina Potratz, Romain got slammed by the show's fans. Viewers didn't like it that he gave Mary a Moissanite engagement ring. However, Romain worked hard and eventually earned enough to gift her a real diamond ring, which she showed off on her Instagram page.

Despite their big age gap, Romain and Mary are still going strong. Mary at 41, is thirteen years older than Romain, who is 28. Still, the couple faces challenges, such as Romain wanting to have children and Mary being reluctant to start her parenting journey again. Mary had her son Austin Babbitt when she was just 16 years old. However, she shared that she was open to having children with Romain, and went through the process of freezing her eggs. Although she made steps to start a family, Mary still expressed her fear that having kids would cause a strain on her and Romain’s marriage.

Romain has joined Mary in the real estate world and is working as a project manager for The Oppenheim Group. She praised him as “a great leader” and “very hardworking.” His new role has been keeping him busy and Mary, who is the new managing partner of The Oppenheim Group, has shared that they are usually exhausted at the end of the day. This is part of the reason why she's reluctant to have a baby.

Since Selling Sunset season 1, fans have doubted that Roman and Mary could keep their relationship going. Their big age gap has come with its fair share of difficulties. Only time will tell whether or not Mary takes the big step of starting a family with Romain. Although they have had trouble seeing eye-to-eye on many things, the real estate mogul has shared that she and Romain have gotten better at communicating, and the power couple is proving that they are able to work through their problems and stay together.

CBS' Ghosts: Every Main Ghost Time Period & Backstory Explained

One of CBS' newest sitcoms,  Ghosts , features a cast full of spectral characters that each hail from a distinct time period and come with their own unique backstory and death. Though each of the eight ghosts has a wildly different perspective based on their different experiences throughout history, they nonetheless form a sort of family, which is one of the show's greatest charms. After all, being stuck with the same people for all of eternity allows for plenty of time to get to know each other. Ghosts , which is an adaptation of a BBC show of the same name, stars Utkarsh Ambudkar and Rose McIver (who played Liv Moore on five seasons of  iZombie ) as Jay and Sam, a young couple who inherit a mansion in upstate New York. To their surprise, however, the house also comes with several ghostly inhabitants, who Sam is able to see after a near-death experience. These are Thorfinn (Devan Long), Sasappis (Román Zaragoza), Isaac (Brandon Scott Jones), Hetty (Rebecca Wisocky...

The Hateful Eight's Original Ending Explained (& Why Tarantino Changed It)

The Hateful Eight has an ending full of blood and betrayal, as expected from any Quentin Tarantino movie, but this wasn’t the original ending – here’s why he changed it. Tarantino has explored different genres throughout his career; though he’s best known for his crime movies like Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction , he's also visited genres like martial arts (with both Kill Bill  films) and black comedy ( Once Upon a Time in Hollywood ). In addition, he's shared his version of westerns with Django Unchained and The Hateful Eight , with the latter going through some problems and creative changes even before it began shooting. Set in 1870, Tarantino's The  Hateful Eight follows eight strangers, all with different (and secret) motivations, who end up in a stagecoach lodge after seeking refuge from a blizzard. These characters are Major Marquis Warren (Samuel L. Jackson), John “The Hangman” Ruth (Kurt Russell), Daisy Domergue (Jennifer Jason Leigh), Chris Mannix (Walton Gog...

Why Spider-Man 3's Uncle Ben Retcon Doesn't Change Peter's Origin

Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man 3 is often criticized for a major retcon made to Uncle Ben’s death , but this retcon ultimately doesn’t change Peter Parker’s classic origin story. Raimi’s third film in the iconic Spider-Man trilogy is often criticized, perhaps unfairly. While the film suffers from too many character arcs and plot threads and would have been better as two or three separate films, it does a more than adequate job adapting the Spider-Man comics and telling a sincere story about relatable, flawed, characters who are intertwined with the extraordinary, just as Stan Lee and Steve Ditko intended when co-creating the character. Uncle Ben’s retconned death may alter classic elements from the comic version, but it retains its most important aspects in regards to Peter’s characterization. 2002’s Spider-Man is, for much of the film’s first half, a faithful adaptation of Spider-Man’s 1962 origin story in issue 15 of the Amazing Fantasy comics. An awkward social pariah, Pete...
