Luxury gifts and viral fame: Ellie's birthday in Thailand
Ellie Liptrot, a 21-year-old Brit, gained fame on social media after showcasing her luxurious birthday gifts from her 44-year-old partner, Mark. The couple spent an exceptional time in Thailand, and Ellie decided to share her experiences from the trip on TikTok.
In her video, 21-year-old Ellie introduced her partner, 44-year-old Mark. She also announced that she would show what she received for her 21st birthday. And although it wasn't a trip Ellie financed out of her pocket, Mark showed her many gifts. One thing is sure: he did not hold back.
She talked about how he spoils her
One of the first gifts Ellie received was a ring from Gucci. Mark also gave her ฿15,000 Thai baht CAD 550 so she could enjoy shopping during the trip. Among the gifts was the "Good Wife Guide" – a guide on how to be a good wife, which Mark thought was a particularly fitting idea.
Ellie also received a new charm for her gold Nomination bracelet, symbolizing her 21st birthday. Mark didn't forget about her favourite cosmetics, either. Among them were the luxurious Rich Cream by Augustine Bader worth CAD 380 and makeup products from Charlotte Tilbury and Huda Beauty.
The gifts also included cosmetics from Space NK's collection, collectable Bearbrick figures, and two new Jellycat stuffed toys. Ellie also received a box of chocolates and a promise to purchase a Ninja Creami CAD 280 upon returning home.
Reactions from netizens
Ellie's video on her @elli3liptrot TikTok account quickly went viral - garnering thousands of views, likes, and comments. Commenters had varied opinions on Ellie and Mark's relationship and the gifts she received.
More like a father. Happy birthday, the most important thing is that you are happy.
Definitely not with him for the money.
Why do you always have to announce his age?
Very caring, you are very lucky - we read in the comments.
Ellie and Mark's story sparked a lot of emotions and discussions online, showing that age differences in relationships still provoke controversy but also curiosity.
By the way, do you believe in true love that spans such a large age gap?
