But their huge age difference didn’t deter them from each other, in fact, Sav revealed that she purposely went looking for an older man.

Recounting how they met, Sav said: “We met on Tinder. I had my settings as high as I could go.

“I was after my Robert Downey Jr from New Zealand.”

After initially starting a conversation on the dating app, they moved to Facebook where they communicated on and off for nine months.

Sav reveals that the couple had no intention of meeting in person, but fate had other plans for them.

She decided to go to the club with her friends one night, something she rarely does.

While she was there, her friend nudged her and let her know that there was a man who kept staring at her.

To Sav’s surprise, it was Mars and the couple danced the night away before heading to the following bar.

Afterwards Sav couldn’t come home and she stayed at Mars’s, being a true gentleman he let her have the bed while he stayed on the couch.

In the morning, she gave Mars a kiss on the lips and immediately knew she had to be with him.
