Anna Camp defended the age gap between her and girlfriend Jade Whipkey after the couple made their red carpet debut last week.
Camp commented on a post from PinkNews on Instagram, which highlighted an 18-year age gap between the actor and Whipkey.
“Thought I’d jump on here since I follow @pinknews and just say I’ve dated men exactly my age and Jade is FAR more mature than any of them,” Camp wrote. “We have more in common than anyone else I’ve ever dated and can literally talk about anything and everything ♥️ Everyone is entitled to their opinion, and I’m wishing everyone well 🙂 Especially this Pride month 🌈”
Camp, 42, appeared on the red carpet for her new film, “Bride Hard,” alongside Whipkey on June 18. Camp wore a blue sleeveless gown, and Whipkey sported a light gray suit, white T-shirt and sneakers.
The “Pitch Perfect” star shared several photos from the night on Instagram, including pictures with Whipkey and her “Bride Hard” co-star, Rebel Wilson.
“Thankyou @rebelwilson for being my bride or die and to my girlfriend @jadewhipkey for being my date and for making me glow,” Camp wrote in the caption, adding three heart emoji.
Whipkey commented a message of support for her girlfriend: “You crushed it honey, congrats🔥 I’m so lucky to be by your side.”
The couple were first spotted together earlier this year, and fans began to speculate if they were together after they appeared in a joint interview posted on TikTok in February, in which they discussed the worst dates they had been on.
In the interview, Camp referred to Whipkey as “babe,” and when she was asked what she expects from a man on a first date, Camp replied, “Well, I don’t expect anything. Not anymore, because I like women, and it’s great.”
Whipkey appeared in a March Instagram post from Camp, and earlier this month, Whipkey shared several photos of herself and Camp while they attended an event celebrating Camp’s cover of Palm Springs Life magazine.
“You are the easiest person to celebrate and the sweetest to love ❤️ See you on the cover of @voguemagazine next,” Whipkey captioned the Instagram post.
