Almost 50-Year-Old Mom Looks So Young

A 22-year-old man has left social media followers shocked and confused after posting a series of photographs of his age-defying mum.

Jonathan Nguyen from Los Angeles posted the images on Facebook, explaining his mum’s diet and exercise regimen are the secrets behind her youthful looks.

“Having a young Asian mum is great until you see someone your age shooting their shot at her,” he wrote.

And followers were utterly stunned, with several explaining they thought the woman in the photograph was his sister — or even girlfriend, The Sun reports.

One commented: “Woah. She’s beautiful. Thought she was your girlfriend.

“I said to myself ‘what a beautiful couple’.”

Another agreed, begging to know her secrets.

“Your mum looks like your sister, what’s her secret?” they wrote, while others referred to the mum as “goals”.

The post has since racked up more than 14,000 likes and nearly 8000 comments, with Jonathan revealing “lots of fruit and working out every day” also contributed to his mum’s good looks as well as a low carb, high fat (Keto) diet.

Again hundreds of people instantly responded, asking the secrets to her youthful looks.

“Need to know her secret of staying young and beautiful!” one woman asked.

“Holy sh*t she’s young,” another said.

But despite sharing the images, Jonathan refused to reveal her age, explaining “it’s a secret” only revealing she’s “in her 40s”.

“To cut to the chase my mum is in her 40s,” he told the Daily Mail Australia.

“WTF that’s your mum??!” said another shocked follower.

Jonathan explained that his mother’s secret to “not ageing” was simply “dieting and exercising”. “She also has a skin care routine that I’m not too aware of,” he added.
