Lauren Cohen, nearing her sixtieth birthday, welcomed twin babies in 2006. This should have been a joyous occasion for the Paramus, New Jersey resident. However, she never foresaw her elder daughter's surprising response.
Lauren's romantic journey began in 2002 when she encountered Frank Garcia during a dance session in New Jersey. She had been single for two years following her divorce. The spark between them was immediate, even though Frank was two decades her junior.
Lauren recalled, “I was taken aback that someone so much younger showed interest in me. His dance skills were impressive, so I invited him for a dance, and he accepted.”
Love blossomed, leading them to marry in 2002. Shortly after, Lauren recognized Frank's deep desire to have children. They opted for in vitro fertilization, but their initial endeavors were hampered by medical professionals' concerns about her age.
