Since getting together, the pair have received negative backlash from other people around them.
But taking to her TikTok page @krystlekayture, Krystel has revealed the pair have since been married for seven years.
The step-mum uploaded a sweet video of her dancing with Ben, and wrote: “Seven years ago I married my boss who was 20 years older than me.
“Everyone said we wouldn’t last. Look at us now.”
Krystel, who has over 334,000 TikTok followers, received nearly 1,000 comments on her video which showed the pair expressing their love for one another.
Many had mixed feelings about the couples relationship.
One wrote: “my good friend is 78, her husband is 99. It’s not fun anymore.”
Another added: “Period secure the bag sis.”
A third wrote: “Hospice husband.”
Someone else said: “Make sure you go to an attorney for estate planning, make sure he lists you as his sole beneficiary as well as power of attorney for medical as well.
“Twenty years is a huge age gap.”
Previously speaking Love Don’t Judge, Kyrstel revealed that she didn’t initially like her husband when they first met.
Krystle revealed she initially found her now-husband “rude” and ignorant.
In fact, she was actively looking for another job before they eventually got together.
She said: “One day I came in dressed up with makeup and my hair done and he couldn’t stop looking at me.
“I think that was when he fell in love with me.”
Kyrstel added: “Our age gap is 20 years and my family and friends thought I was crazy.”

He even revealed that he doesn’t “disagree” with those who call his step-mum a “gold digger.”
He said: “When I first found out that my dad and Krystle were dating, I was definitely surprised.
“Would it be my first choice? Probably not… The age gap brings a lot of attention. Krystle likes attention.”
