00:00This is Willow.
00:02She fell in love with Rob.
00:05My mom married us after a month of dating.
00:08It was just meant to be.
00:10And their 35-year age gap
00:12means that they often encounter online scrutiny.
00:16They call me the Black Widow.
00:18They're all still alive.
00:19I don't know why they're calling me that.
00:21Sorry, babe.
00:23I may be the first.
00:25No!
00:26Today they will be finding out
00:27what Willow's mom really thinks of their relationship.
00:31How did you feel when I told you about me and Robby?
00:35Honestly.
00:38My mom's smiling.
00:39Look at us.
00:40We're all just so happy.
00:41That's the biggest smile ever,
00:43but now you see where I get my smile from.
00:45It was a great day.
00:46I know.
00:47Look at us.
00:48I'm Willow, and this is my husband Rob,
00:50and my mom married us after a month of dating.
00:53We dated for 30 days
00:55and said, you know what?
00:56When it's right, it's right.
00:58We actually met on Tinder four years ago.
01:02But in a short time, she met somebody,
01:04and I met somebody,
01:05and because we were across the country,
01:07we couldn't get together.
01:08So we pretty much bounced back and forth
01:11with FaceTime and text messages
01:14for, God, almost four years.
01:16This past December, I got booked to do a music video,
01:20and so I came down.
01:21I was supposed to go to bed early,
01:23and I didn't want to,
01:24so I was like, who's in Los Angeles that I know?
01:27He's like, Robbie.
01:28I was actually half asleep.
01:30I was laying down.
01:31I was exhausted,
01:33and I heard her voice saying that she's in L.A.,
01:37and probably the fastest shower and hair blowout
01:40I've ever done in 60 years.
01:45She pretty much moved in
01:47three hours into our first date.
01:49I think it was just meant to be.
01:55Now, there are people on the Internet that were like...
01:58Haters.
01:59Yeah.
02:00They called me the Black Widow
02:02because this is my second or third age gap relationship.
02:06They're all still alive.
02:07I don't know why they're calling me that.
02:10Sorry, babe.
02:11I may be the first.
02:13No!
02:14Our wedding day was incredibly casual.
02:17We were just focusing on pretty much
02:19how we love each other, and that's it.
02:21Focused on her.
02:23We got married at the Beverly Hills Park
02:25in front of the sign.
02:26It was perfect.
02:28I'd been married before,
02:30and my late mother,
02:32while I was going through my divorce,
02:34she said, Robbie,
02:36would you ever get married again?
02:39And I said, Mom,
02:41if I get married again,
02:44hasn't been born yet.
02:46And my mother laughed.
02:48And here we are.
02:49And that was 25 years ago,
02:51and we got married when I was 24.
02:53He spoke that into existence.
02:55Her entire life, I have been single.
02:57Think about it.
02:5825 years, I've been single.
03:00Her entire life, since she was an infant,
03:03I was a single guy.
03:06Before I was discovered musically,
03:08I was a orchestra girl.
03:11I could play the double bass
03:13and the cello and a little viola,
03:15a little violin.
03:16I'd never sang before in my life.
03:18I had, like, a fear of it.
03:20I was terrified, too.
03:21I thought I didn't have a good voice.
03:23She's fabulous.
03:24What can I say?
03:25And then they put me in the studio.
03:27Like, the song that came out,
03:28they wouldn't even put auto-tune on it.
03:29That's just like, I begged them to,
03:31but they didn't,
03:32and now I'm glad that they didn't
03:33because I have more confidence in myself.
03:35A lot of people do assume
03:37that I need him
03:39to take care of me,
03:40or I'm using him,
03:41or he's a sugar daddy,
03:42and that's not the case at all.
03:45My music is taking off.
03:47And, yeah, we have a really healthy,
03:50balanced relationship.
03:51This is my sweet baby girl.
03:54Her name is Genevieve Angeline.
03:56She had SMA type 1,
03:57so she was very sick,
03:58and they told me she had a 5% chance
04:00of making it to 2 years old.
04:02So every single day,
04:04I would start off with Rainbow Lights
04:07and dance music
04:08and she was paralyzed and on a respirator,
04:11and this was during COVID as well,
04:12so we couldn't go outside.
04:14I couldn't take her anywhere.
04:15And, unfortunately, she passed away
04:19about almost 2 years ago.
04:21It'll be 2 years in May.
04:22I gave her the absolute best life
04:25I possibly could.
04:26That's one area of my life
04:28I have no regrets on.
04:30I was a good mom.
04:33Yeah.
04:34Yeah, that's my girl.
04:35That's my bestie.
04:37She's so cute, man.
04:40I know.
04:41I did a good job making her.
04:54Let's call your mommy.
04:55Hey, Mom!
04:57Hi!
04:58How you doing, lady?
05:00Great.
05:01So how did you feel
05:03when I told you about me and Robbie?
05:05Honestly.
05:07Um, I wasn't surprised.
05:10I know that you like someone
05:14who knows what they're doing
05:16and doesn't play head games
05:18and has had experiences in life
05:21and can, you know,
05:23just be themselves around you.
05:26It's like he's just unapologetically himself.
05:29Would you have been happier
05:30with her dating people her own age?
05:33No.
05:34No, not at all.
05:36Why?
05:37I've seen those guys.
05:39Guys her age are very immature and stupid
05:42and they don't really have their life together
05:46and they meander.
05:48And Willow's not a meanderer.
05:51I love meander, by the way.
05:53I remember when meander came out.
05:55I was there.
05:57I have a question.
05:58What?
05:59Would you like to have another child with Rob?
06:03I think at some point in the future, absolutely.
06:06I think it's gonna be in many a year's time.
06:09How many?
06:10I don't know.
06:11I think I would still feel guilty
06:12about loving another child.
06:14Healing takes time, I don't know.
06:15For me, based on my age,
06:18three to four years would be okay with me.
06:21Anything longer than that,
06:22I could probably break a hip changing a diaper.
06:25Why did you decide to marry us?
06:27It was an adventure.
06:29And...
06:30Yeah.
06:31People don't really remember gifts as well.
06:34You will always remember that I married you.
06:38Or she will always hate you
06:40until you die from marrying us.
06:43It could really go either way, you know.
06:45Happy wife, happy life.
06:46He knows the rules already,
06:47which is why I got one that's seasoned.
06:49She trained me well.
06:50No, the last two did.
06:52Okay.
06:53Third time's the charm.
06:55How would you describe our relationship?
06:57Be totally honest.
07:00Um...
07:01Funny.
07:03You have a very fun relationship
07:06and a mother couldn't ask for someone
07:08to love their daughter as much as,
07:10you know, you love mine.
07:12That actually got me a little misty.
07:15That...
07:16I can't cry.
07:17I got a lump in my throat just now
07:19with you saying that.
07:20Alright, I love you, bye.
07:21I love you too, bye.
07:23When I first met you
07:26I couldn't believe it was true
07:31Rob has changed my life for the better
07:33in so many ways.
07:35Now you do all the things that you do
07:39I'm now loving literally every single second
07:41of every moment.
07:43Oh, I'm so happy all the time
07:47And she changed my life.
07:49She's completed it.
07:51I'm done.
07:53And I thank you, babe, for being mine.
