The Age Difference Joke
In her birthday message, Valerie Bertinelli, teasing Goodnough, reminded their audiences about the fact that she is ten years older. This was her post, ” If there’s one thing about Mike (there are many things) he doesn’t like backlight. Me? I think backlighting is lovely. As the picture below…taken by Mike proves. Listen to your grandma. Happy birthday Mike. They say you’re a year older today but darling, you’re younger than me. ”
This humorous comment focused on how much at ease Bertinelli was when surrounded by her partner, and how age difference should not be a problem between lovers.
