Jessica said: "People judge our relationship because he has the same name and age as my dad.

"I think my attraction to Alan grew over time as far as physical attraction, but I was attracted to everything else immediately.

"His success, the way he carried himself, the way he was a host, the way he pursued me immediately. He was a gentleman. He used to wear cowboy boots and big cowboy buckles and cowboy hats."

The pair met after a mutual friend invited Jessica to come to Alan's for a get together and the pair began dating immediately.
