Tyga and Kylie Jenner: 8 years
Eight years isn’t a huge age gap for a couple in their 20s or 30s, but Tyga and Kylie were rumoured to be dating already when Kylie was just 16 and he was 23… Kylie’s big half-sister Khloe Kardashian defended Kylie’s choices. “I think at 16 I was probably f**king someone that was in their 20s, for sure,” Khloe confessed. “I wouldn’t say I was even dating, probably just sleeping with them. But again Kylie is not a normal 17-year-old.” Khloe justified Kylie as unusual, saying “You’re not gonna say, ‘Hey, so what are you doing this weekend?’ and have her say, ‘Having a slumber party at my girlfriend’s,’ or ‘Going to prom.’ That’s not what Kylie does,” she said. “Kylie is taking business meetings and bought her first house, or she’s going on a private plane with Karl Lagerfeld to take a meeting. That’s not even what people do in their 30s. It’s a rare circumstance, so let’s treat this as a special case.”
