Summer Monteys-Fullam, 22, has opened up about her relationship with Paul Hollywood, 52, revealing that their 30-year age gap doesn’t bother her.
In her first ever interview, Summer said: “I’m fine and I’m enjoying life. I’m not upset… I’m happy. Why should it [the age gap] bother me?
“There are many other people in the world with age gaps, and marriages and kids and everything else and I’m fine,” she continued to the MailOnline.

Summer met Paul when she was working as a barmaid at The Duke William, his local pub in Kent. They are said to have met when he organised a birthday party for his estranged wife Alexandra there.
But Summer has claimed that her relationship with Paul started “way after his marriage ended”.
They apparently began dating in November 2017, and Paul even reportedly took summer on holiday at a £1,000 a night Mauritius resort.
It was recently revealed that Summer has Paul saved as a very, um, odd name on her phone.
