Marques Houston's Age Gap: A Mystery Wrapped in an Enigma... Kinda
Marques Houston, the smooth R&B singer who soundtracked our teenage crushes, has been in the news lately, but not exactly for his latest hit (though, can we get a revival of "Clubbin'" please?). The topic at hand? The age difference between him and his wife, Miya. Buckle up, because this is one for the history books... of slightly dramatic celebrity gossip.
They met when she was... 17?
Here's where the plot thickens. According to the internet sleuths (and let's be honest, haven't we all morphed into one at some point?), Marques met Miya when she was a mere 17 years young. Marques, himself, was 41. Now, hold on before you reach for your fainting couch. Marques insists that things weren't romantic until she was 18, but that age gap still has tongues wagging faster than a gossip blogger on a double espresso shot.
Age Ain't Nothing But a Number... But Also Maybe a Number That Raises Eyebrows
Look, love knows no age, they say. And hey, maybe Marques is onto something with that whole "women my age are independent" thing (although, side note: strong women come in all vintages, Marques). But that 19-year age difference? It's enough to make you wonder if they listen to the same music (although with Marques still belting out hits, maybe that's not such a bad thing).
So, How Old is Miya Exactly?
Miya is currently a youthful 22 years old. Marques, bless his heart, is holding steady at 41 (though, with that youthful energy from his much-younger wife, who knows how long that will last). They even have a beautiful daughter together, so clearly, things are working for them.
The Verdict: Age Gap? Sure. But Let's Not Break the Internet
At the end of the day, Marques and Miya seem happy. They're living their best lives, making music, and raising their kid. Do we need to dissect their age difference under a microscope? Probably not. But hey, it is fun to speculate, analyze, and maybe even raise an eyebrow or two. Just remember, folks, as long as everyone involved is happy and of legal age, who are we to judge? Now, if you'll excuse me, I have a sudden urge to listen to "Crash" on repeat.
