    Videos posted by a mother of five who is often mistaken for being a teenager have gone viral online.

    The woman, named Lyn, recently shared a video of her and her husband, along with the years of her pregnancies, on TikTok , shocking other users.

    Despite being 32, Lyn is often mistaken for being a preteen - even though she has a 10 year-old child.

    "I have a baby face, and he's prematurely balding, so people think he's my dad", she jokingly said of her husband.

    The young looking woman said that people often assume there's a massive age gap between them, especially because of their height difference, but the couple are actually just four years apart and have five children together.

    The video has over 1.2 million views and thousands of comments . One person wrote: "You're in your 30s!?"

    Another commented: "I need to know the age gap."

    Lyn put her youthful look down to "genetics combined with delayed growth as a teen" because of intensive ballet training.

    Taking a cue from the reaction, she soon posted another video of her dancing in front of her much taller husband saying: "Guess the age gap"

    She added: "I AM AN ADULT."

    That video, posted on her handle @lynwithoutline , has over 24.4million views so far. A user wrote underneath it: "Are you not 12?"

    Some people shared similar stories. One said: "I also look young for my age I get it."

    Another woman wrote: "A cast member at Disneyland thought my husband was my grandpa because he grew out his beard and looked old."

    Lyn laughed at the comment and said she had similar experience there too. She wrote: "Disney, they did think he was my dad".
