Thirty years of discord

On February 8, Tobey Maguire, actor known for playing the role of Spider-man in the early 2000s, was seen in the stands during the Super Bowl final. What is talking is that the American was accompanied by his girlfriend, Mishka Silva, 30 years younger than him. In fact, the actor is 50 years old and his partner… 20 years old.

Time for a career

When commenting on the couple’s images, Internet users don’t mince their words. Some say they are “disappointed” with the actor while others call Mishka Silva a “brat”. It must be said that between her and Tobey Maguire, there is enough of a gap for the actor to have had time to achieve notoriety even before his partner was born.

“She wasn’t even born in the first Spider-man,” notes a subscriber. Indeed, the first part of the Spider-man saga, which made Maguire famous, was released in 2002, 3 years before the birth of Mishka Silva. The actor was 27 years old at the time. The second part, simply titled Spider-Man 2, released in 2004, also had time to come out before the model saw the light of day. The icing on the cake is that Tobey Maguire has a 19-year-old daughter, only one year younger than his girlfriend. Are you feeling nauseous? Us too.
