If you all didn't say you had a big age gap I would have never guessed it at ALL. Love WINS all the time.

Max is emotionally intelligent and self aware, seeing this from a man is inspiring!!!!

Max is no average 26 year old male. This is why you were able to grow towards him. You two are really well matched and I wish you all the best in your life together.

My mom is 11 years older than my dad. They got married when he was 20! They just celebrated 34 years yesterday. 🥰

And Maya looks younger than Max.

I’ve been watching Maya for years and I still can’t believe she’s 38! I for sure thought they were going to say Max was the one 12 years older. 😅

I actually didn’t know who was 12 years older 😂😂

Maya...Im also 38 and had my first baby at 37. You will be fine. God bless your union:)

I’m currently pregnant 40+..Dad is years younger... ❤️ Manifest your desires ❣️

When your energy matches, age really doesn’t matter🤷🏾‍♀️

When you said you have a 12 year age gap, I was like... Max is 50?! He looks fiiine! 😂

I'm 8 years older than my husband and we've been married for 15 years.

Oh wow. I started watching and I was like ok.... she’s 22 and he’s 34? Lolll

They both look 26 chile 💕🌺

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am hype for this

Laughter is EVERYTHING in a relationship. I absolutely will not be with a man I can't laugh with and often. What a lovely couple. Blessings. Oh, btw I had my daughter when I was 37. My sister was 42 when she had her son. Y'all got this.

I had no idea she was 38 she looks so young ❤️ black don’t crack 👌🏾✨

Dang, Max is more self-aware than many 30 something year olds...Age aint nothing but a number....

At a certain point in your life you just have to do what makes you happy. For me personally I’m 6’1. Society thinks that just because I’m a tall woman, I should be with a tall man or I’d look better with a tall man and that’s just complete BS. What kind of person would I be if my soul mate was shorter than me and I turned him down just because we look “weird” together? I’m sorry but no. That’d be like not dating someone because of their eye or skin color. I’m so so happy for you Maya and glad you and Max have decided to be together no matter what comes your way. ❤️

You create your reality, I just had a healthy pregnancy, healthy delivery, and healthy baby at 36.

First, Maya your curly ringlets are everything! Next: A word of inspiration. Tina Turner and her husbsnd Erwin met when he was in his 30s and Tina in her 50s. At 64 Erwin, and 81 Tina are still together. Message there: Don't allow anyone to spoil your Love because of age! You're an adult and Max is an adult and Love is Love! So there you have it! 😊 #LovePeaceAndHappiness to you guys! 😊

maya when max is speaking swedish to her: 👁👄👁

My husband is 6.5 years younger than me and that was a huge hurdle for me to get over. My first husband passed away (he was 6.5 older crazy I know) and my Bestfriend told me, I would marry again and he would be younger. I told her no way, because I always loved older men! Well we will celebrate 10 years of marriage in June and it’s one of the BEST decisions I’ve ever made!! So God bless your union and NEVER stop laughing!! We laugh daily at nothing sometimes 😂😂😂

I am 12 years older then my husband and it really doesn't seem that way, we just fit. You two fit so perfectly. Love you guys.

I’m 6 years older than my boyfriend, I love to see this! People still make me feel uneasy 😔 but I LOVE him 🤷🏾‍♀️

Max look so caring, I love the way he motivates her to learn Swedish

I’m 13 years older than my husband and we got married after 3 months? He was 29 and I was 42. 14 years, 2 homes and 2 kids later we are all good! Men marry younger women all the time! Maya looks so much younger too! I thought he was older than her!

He got me when he said he didn’t know he was white till he came to Uganda 🇺🇬 am a Kenyan I understand swahili, i relate to that sentence because I also never knew black until i came to Austria 🇦🇹 and started being referred to as African or black person that was crazy for me too.. in Kenya 🇰🇪 i was just a human being and I never saw myself as black 🙇🏾‍♀️ culture shock is a thing 🙇🏾‍♀️ am a fan of maya from her main page good to see you guys with a couple channel💝

I get it, I'm 14 years older than my husband. He was my friend first and it just went from there. We also had issues with other ppl, but in the end it was not what everybody wanted but what we wanted. He is my best friend and the love of my life. It's been 8 yrs now but feels like yesterday.

I really appreciate you sharing your age difference. I’m 40 and I tend to attract younger guys which makes me feel uncomfortable at times but I’ve been definitely thinking of been more open lately. This is really encouraging.❤️❤️🥰

Girl!!!im 40 but I look 28 ish , a lot of people mistake me for a girl in my 20s I have a boyfriend who is 29 and super hot ! I almost missed out on such a wonderful relationship if I listened to society, to myself ...you do you. Like you have always done . You look gorgeous and happy . C’est toute 💕💕

i just clicked on this video to find out whos the older one, both look so young 🤯

How they look at each other is beautiful. Her skin, his eyes, their chemistry - easy magic! Wishing you the best forever!

Awe you both look like teenagers, gorgeous couple

I'm 15 years older than my bf. Best decision I ever made. Looking the same age definitely helps.

🤣 I have real tears Maya: talk to me in Swedish Max: does as asked Maya: 😖😟😖😳

Decision making as a couple, defining boundaries, boundaries which you and Max have redefined...Yes Fran is a golden friend.

Me and my husband we have a 10 year gap. I'm 37 and pregnant for the first time this year 😊. Plus Maya looks younger than you Max. Yes focus on family, babies and professional and personal growth.

Max has emotional intelligence on another level! This is quite refreshing to watch as I think many of us especially women of color struggle with family and social expectations when it comes to our significant others...

I came here to find out who’s older but stayed because I loved you guys

Max and Maya love is not a number or a felling. It's loving someone that make you a better version of yourself worts and all. So don't let what other people think deter your ability to love. If you two are happy 😊 then that's all that matters.

I love this couple. Its great seeing Maya so happy and free to just be herself. I just turned 30, never had a relationship, never been on a date, etc and to see her so happy makes me happy for her. You always hear people say there's someone for everyone. I believe that is true for most people, not all. You see it all the time people have left this world without finding love. They are definitely blessed to find each other.

I’m italian and in Italy everybody and every couple that is not white italian is weird or has some issues but Scandinavians are a different reality and they are known from us as people that see things from a different prospective Can’t wait to see you in Europe guys!!!

I really enjoyed this. Maya you’ve grown so much and just seeing you with the love of your life is inspiring. It’s so awesome that you didn’t let the distance stop you from love.

Thank you for the update, it’s great to see you both! It is great that you have each other as Maya goes through her journey to become a Swedish citizen. Much love‼️🙏🏽😘

Love you too - sooo here for it! And appreciate how openly and respectfully you talk to each other and here with us!

thank you guys, always a pleasure seeing you and hearing you!

Omg!!! I cried!! I'm so happy for you Max and Maya!!!

Just love watching you laugh together! It makes happy too!

Love seeing you so happy Maya!!!! 🥰🥰

Thank you for opening up and sharing g with us!

I LOVE how well he speaks

When you said that you both have humour in common I let out a happy scream! You each found THE ONE! Love to see it ❤️

Totally wouldn't have guessed you guys are 12 years part. We love watching you guys videos!

So much love and light! God bless your home!

Watching your genuine laughter together is so refreshing.

oh I just started the video and im cheesing already from y'all cuteness. Maya looks so happy and free like a child

Yay! You answered my question first! Thank you! This has helped me understand you guys and see both your beautiful personalities! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Humor is probably the best foundation to a relationship. Loving to laugh and laughing with your love..

Ah the communication between you too is refreshing. Also to find someone you can create with and be curious about the world with is beautiful..well done! ❤️❤️❤️❤️ can’t wait to see big projects from you guys!

you are glowing Maya!! You guys are goals!! Happy and Healthy Love!! Blessings💜🙌💜🙌💜🙌💜

Love you guys! I hope you make videos on working together and your creative process. Your videos are so beautiful!

You guys have what seems to me a balanced relationship, your guys know when to be serious and when to have fun 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

It's pretty easy to see why you two are together. Love this!

I'm just amazed Max is SO close to my age!! God bless you both.

So cute together! 🥰 You guys have amazing chemistry, love it! ❤

you all are really brave to share and provide value in this way! thank you💜

I love your story, you both are fantastic! I thank you for posting your story! You give hope to many and I pray that God continues to bless your relationship. Keeping going strong, its so beautiful to see you both together. Everything happens for a reason and you both are connected in many ways. Listen to each other, grow together, learn from one another, pray together, its not about the age, its about the mind set and where you both are in life. You both look amazing together, much love and blessings

Girl, I'm so happy that you're happy.🥳🎉

Love you guys and you look so in love!! You guys are an inspiration!! Thank you for addressing the subject of women having timelines for children. You’re right we shouldn’t worry about that!!

Wishing you two love and happiness ❤️❤️

Another thing you have in common: You both have incredible smiles, like wow!

I love the transparency!! Ya'll are beautiful, both of your stories, the relationship, what you two share, its all so beautiful!! I did not know there was a age gap. It does not matter! I love what your therapist said & I can relate. I always wanted to be with someone that looked like me as well. Wishing you both continued love & happiness :)

Love their banter ... they just get each other 😊

You both look so happy! Hope you can get back to your beautiful house in Sweden soon! 🙌🏽 excited to see your journey together! (Also love the Jesse Boykins III hoodie ✨)

We started vloging our journey as a family and it's honestly the best (especially when you go through marriage, pregnancy, and having children, as those are such cherished memories that are beautifully packaged in a video for you to watch when you want to take a trip down memory lane and get all the warm fuzzies again)! You'll both have all these videos and memories to look back on, and see the love in each others eyes for years to come. Thanks for sharing your journey with us! Hope all the immigration process goes smooth 🙏

Hi, I’m a first time watcher. You guys are so sweet to each other! I liked this video :) thank you for this.

I loved watching them. They are literally best friends. I'm so happy you guys started a new Channel... 😍😍😍

Regarding the age gap, you guys seem highly compatible & Max seems very mature for a 26-year-old, kind of worldly... not a typical 26-year-old here in the States who seems to enjoy just sitting around playing video games. BTW, he has got some beautiful blue eyes!

So Happy you found true love Maya. You deserve it! You’ve taken us through your journey of love and self discovery, and I’m so grateful that you have made it to this point. All the best in your marriage Queen 💕🙏🏾👑

I love this! I would have never guessed the age difference. I just feel like you both complement each other so well. So many people always assume my husband and I are much older, not because of looks but just because they feel we are so “mature

This video makes me feel so inspired and comfortable. Even though I'm only 6 years older, it was freaking me out about the age gap in my own relationship and the fear of being older to have children. Thanks so much Maya and Max.

Loved learning more about your relationship and dynamic. Been loving, laughing, creating and working with my boo for 22 years. It's amazing. So happy for you 3. Max, you done planted that seed man 🤰🏾. Maya, you are ever inspiring. Just love ya lady. Enjoy the harvest you lovely souls. Love from a Canuck (Toronto in da house) 🇨🇦 in Uganda 🇺🇬

lol you look a lot younger than your age Maya! Aging gracefully!

Had no idea there was an age gap! Love this honesty!❤️❤️

Maya is so happy - good to see her so happy - let love rule!

He is an amazing guy, his intellect matches yours. Since he is fully grown physically and mentally , its all good.

Majorly FABULOUS!!! The whole package, Maya baby, giiiiirl! 😁 I haven't updated on your news for about 5 years and now the WHOLE WONDERS I am simply 😃😍🤩🥰🤗 Blessings upon blessings to you, Max and your coming child/children 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 I'd highly suggest for this channel for you guys to consider alternating videos in English and Swedish, this will improve both of your skills!!! ...Uh.Mah.Gah. getting super emotional right now for all the good news from you 🙏🏽🤗🧡✨

Stopped by because this video was a recommendation and I’m so happy KZfaq suggested something GREAT! My partner and I are also 12 years apart. 24F/36M and we can definitely relate to the societal norms...but we are so happy we challenged it. So much fear in the beginning and growing as individuals. Uggghs thank you for sharing this! 💕💕 you guys are perfect!

You guys are my favorite couple/ KZfaqrs! So honest, real, humble, and constantly trying to make this world a better place💚. I’d love to see a video on your love life journeys before finding each other & how God brought you all together📝.

Maya I am so happy for you you have been through good times and some bad times I watched on video. I followed you when shaved all your hair off. And I kept saying look at this woman I have learn so much from you from camera work DYI projects. And now to see you married and in love with Max and having Jackie with you it just makes my heart sing. God bless you and I'll continue to follow you and see your new adventures. And age is not an issue Max you gain wisdom from her and Maya you gain wisdom from him it'll be beautiful.

You guys are adorable together! My now husband and I are 8 years apart I was afraid of all the things you guys say but have realized that it’s more what society puts in our heads no one would care if they girl was younger then him but since I’m older it’s a problem for them. Continue with your happiness

You guys are such an inspiration 🙏😘 I love your videos!

Love looks so good on you Maya!

Great video! Frankly, I didn’t know there was an age gap!!!! I thought you were both the same age, and if anything, I thought your hubby was a bit older, as you look about 24/25 years old. Melanin is magic!!!! Keep doing what you’re both doing.

Really love this guys! Bless you

Hiya Mya....just l💚ve you guys... Have followed YOU for a long time. Max is an emotional Soulmate and it shows..he is calm peaceful and connected. Hugs from Barbados...Judy

Exactly it’s some people’s reality not everyone’s reality

Just started watching. Your a beautiful couple live life and don't let society or other people define you. Have a blessed life🌹

You go girl. You are right about the “unwriting rules.’ Cross those barriers, it helps people to go beyond what is expected. I love it. Be you. Be courageous and show the world you will not be the norm, but you will be true to who you are.🎀✝️✝️✝️💕
