Christopher Lloyd is facing heavy criticism after marrying his fifth wife, Lisa Loiacono, with a huge age difference.
In a Valentine’s Day post, the 87-year-old American actor shared a photo of himself holding his 55-year-old wife Loiacono.
Gushing over his fifth wife, he added a caption that read, “It’s the sweetest love. My Valentine.”
The photo, which shows Lloyd in a black leather top and distressed jeans tied with a Gucci belt, was flooded with criticism, with many focusing on the 32-year age difference between the pair.
A source close to the Back to the future star said Radaronline that the response has been ‘devastating’.
“Christopher finds the focus on their ages hurtful. He posted something upbeat and heartfelt, and it turned into a debate about numbers,” the insider revealed. “He is very happy and very much in love.”
He and Loiacono “have built a life based on friendship and a shared history. The criticism does not reflect the reality of their relationship,” the source said.
Lloyd and Loiacono’s first interaction was in 2012, when she was working as a real estate agent and was responsible for the sale of his Montecito home.
The Addams family star was single at the time, having split from his fourth wife, Jane Walker, in 2005, whom he married in 1992.
It is pertinent to mention that Lloyd’s first marriage was to Catherine Boyd from 1958 to 1971, his second marriage to Kay Tornborg lasted from 1974 to 1987, while his third marriage to Carol Ann Vanek lasted from 1988 to 1991.
