A superfit gran has shared how she is often mistaken for her daughter’s sister – with younger men giving her attention causing a rift between them.
Andréa Sunshine, as she is known online, regularly hits the headlines with her fitness tips – and steamy dating life.
The 54-year-old previously admitted to meeting her “secret admirer soulmate” after bedding over 800 people.

Now, though, the bodybuilder has revealed that she often gets mistaken for her daughter’s, Jannah, 28, sister.
And the mum’s interest in younger men leaves her slightly annoyed.
“We don’t necessarily argue, but we’ve had disagreements because I enjoy the attention,” Andréa, who works as a life coach and fitness influencer, from London, told What’s The Jam.
“She finds it inappropriate due to the age difference, but it makes me proud of my achievements.
“Sometimes, if someone is attracted to me, they’ll ask her for my number or a way to get closer to me.

“She gets quite angry about this and says that I’m old enough to be their mum.
“Jannah has always been protective of me since she was very young.
“I remember at a music festival, she kept interrupting a conversation I was having with a young man, saying: ‘Did you know she is my mum?’ and he replied: ‘I don’t believe it.’

“I laughed because she was furious with that response.”
Andréa claims the pair have been mistaken as sisters their whole lives, but this has intensified only recently.
Often, they’re approached by men asking for a double date with two sisters – which the mum finds “disgusting”.
She said: “I’ve had a few messages in my inbox from men saying they’d like to date us both.
“It makes me so angry, as the fantasies involving two sisters or mum and daughter together are absurd.
“I’m very conservative about it and family for me is sacred – it should be respected.”
Despite the awkward encounters, Andréa and Jannah are very close friends, regularly doing anything and everything together.
She added: “We understand and respect each other.
“As a mum, I sometimes have to be more firm, but we’re always spending time with one another.
“We go travelling, shopping, and share the same beliefs, as well as holistic practices.
“I try whenever I can to get her out of the house and to the gym with me, but she thinks I’m addicted to working out.
“I love her, and no matter what, no man will ever come between us.
“I don’t mix my private life with my family life; it’s too special.”
