This beautiful Cambodian bride has been slammed online for marrying a 70-year-old Chinese man after she proudly posted images of their wedding online.

The young woman, named as Soda Meng, age not disclosed, was criticised by online trolls after posting touching snaps of her posing with her new hubby, identified as Shi Song Bang from China.

The couple was later forced to delete messages and change the privacy settings on their social network profiles.

According to local media, it is unknown what date the couple’s wedding took place, but is believed to have been sometime last month. They both live in Cambodia as a married couple.

In several touching Facebook posts declaring her love for her husband, including messages such as “I will love only you” and “I’m very lucky to have married you”, many netizens responded negatively, according to China Press.

Social media users called Meng “a gold digger” and ridiculed their apparent age difference.

Following the online backlash, Meng deleted some posts and changed her privacy settings.

Her Chinese husband has reportedly done the same on his online profiles.
