Social media stars aged 82 and 70 prove it’s never too late to become influencers
Robert and May Leong have been posting online since 2022, with their quirky dance and comedy reels finding wide appeal
Since married retirees Robert and May Leong started their Instagram and TikTok accounts in July 2022, they have learned to keep a straight face.
For the fun-loving pair, it was not easy. But as they got the hang of it, to their surprise, they discovered their content had wider appeal than they expected.
Three-and-a-half years on, the couple, who live in Sydney, Australia, have thousands of followers who cannot get enough of their entertaining and often funny reels – what they describe as their “social media shenanigans”.
Robert, who is 82 years old, and May, 70, are showing the TikTok generation how it is done, proving that age is no barrier when it comes to being social media stars.
