Jalen Green and Draya Michele’s relationship has come under intense scrutiny due to their age difference. Michele responded to TikToker Boujeebrownskin, who shared a clip from a couple’s quiz she and Green took.The quiz prompted the TikToker to sarcastically remark that their dynamic felt more like a “mother and son” rather than partners, owing to their 17-year age difference.“It’s the fact that you are aware that he is significantly younger than you, and you think that it’s a joke,” Boujeebrownskin said in the video. “It’s clear you are leaning into this intentional age gap that y’all have, and I think that’s pretty f***** weird.”Michele didn’t hold back in her response as she labeled the critique an “ageist.”“One more thing… this is ageist. No different from being homophobic. You can’t be woke about one thing… and not the other. Discrimination is discrimination. Imagine if somebody told you couldn’t love who you wanted to because they felt like it was ‘wrong.’” View this post on Instagram Instagram PostJalen Green and Draya Michele were first linked in August 2023.
