I'm 40 and my daughter is 19 but people think we're sisters - so, can YOU tell who is younger?
A 40-year-old mother has claimed men mistake her and her teenage daughter as sisters or friends at gigs. Lynsey Schofield, from Blackpool, Lancashire, said people often think she's 20 years younger than she is, with her daughter admitting it's 'annoying' when young lads hit on her mother. Lynsey was just 21 when she had her daughter, Melody Heslop, 19, and the two are now best friends. The lookalike pair go to concerts and festivals together and have seen Liam Gallagher, The Prodigy, Chemical Brothers and most recently Oasis together. The mother-of-two said fellow concert-goers have been shocked to learn she is a mother when they see her in the crowd and doubtful bouncers have even asked her for ID on the door. Meanwhile, daughter Melody admitted it does get 'a bit annoying' when lads her own age want to chat up her mother. Lynsey said: 'We were at The Prodigy concert last year and were just speaking to someone and they thought I was her friend. I was like, "oh no I'm her mum!" 'It's quite flattering, I'm quite happy for people to think I'm younger than I am. None of us want to get any older do we? 'When I went to The Prodigy, it was at Warehouse Project and they asked me for my ID, which I was more than happy to provide. It has given me a bit of an ego-boost.' Youthful Lynsey does not follow an extensive beauty or workout routine but, outside of her job as a support worker, she works as a sound healing practitioner and claimed this helps her stress levels. After they saw Oasis on their reunion tour, Lynsey posted photos of them together at the concert on Facebook. Those in the comments were in disbelief that the duo were mother and daughter, saying the pair looked like sisters and describing Lynsey as 'supersonic'. She mentioned that a few overly eager men have attempted to contact her privately via direct messages on Facebook. Lynsey said: 'The amount of friend requests I've had from random men is unbelievable. '[The Oasis reunion] was a big thing for us because we'd spoken about it since she was little and I promised her when she was 11 if they ever got back together we would go. 'I put it [the picture of us both] up because I was buzzing about being at the concert. 'I wasn't expecting so many comments. I was surprised at how many people made the comparison to be honest. It's nice for people to think I'm younger than I am.' Teenager Melody was not surprised by the comments on the post and said she gets flack about her young mother from lads her age. Melody, who works as a waitress, said: 'We get it a lot so it's something I'm used to. I find it quite funny sometimes. 'We've had it since I was younger anyway. Through all of my teenage years we've been compared as sisters.

Love Island bombshell Billykiss Azeez reveals the one couple she believes stands NO chance of staying together beyond the show - and could split before it's even over!
Former Love Island contestant Billykiss Azeez believes each remaining couple stands a realistic chance of winning the show as it nears its climax - except one. The Dublin based content creator was eliminated from the Majorcan villa on July 23, just days after making her entrance as a resident bombshell. And having already left the Spanish island behind, Azeez, 28, has had plenty of time to reflect on the four remaining couples and their odds of winning the grand finale on August 4. Currently seven couples are vying for a place in this year's final, but only four will make it to the end - and lines are already open for the public to vote for the next one out. Matters have been further complicated by the unexpected return of Helena Ford and Blu Chegini, with the couple re-entering the villa on July 22. But according to Ezeez, they stand no chance of staying together beyond the show, or winning its £50,000 prize money. Asked if any of the remaining couples might stay together once cameras stop rolling, she told Daily Mail: 'As it stands, all of them, as they are right now, in this current coupling. I've said before it's questionable, but now [it's different]. 'Apart from Blu and Helena, they're not going to last, let's be honest. They won't even last past this experience here.' On Tuesday evening, Love Island fans went wild as Helena's parents entered the villa and came face-to-face with her former boyfriend, Harry Cooksley. After greeting him with 'hello villain,' mum Jasmine and dad Phil went on to claim that Harry 'wears his d**k on his sleeve' as they chatted on the day bed. The footballer had been coupled up Helena from the start of the series, went exclusive with her little more than a week ago, then decided to make a complete u-turn and get back with his ex, Shakira Khan. During Sunday's episode, the pair ended their romance for the second time after Harry admitted to still having feelings for Shakira. The split came after a very explosive night at The Grafties where Harry came under fire for expressing interest in Shakira just days after going exclusive with Helena. Following a row at the firepit where Helena said she was 'done', the pair later had an emotional chat where they confirmed their romance was over and hugged it out. Later in the day Harry was seen crying in the bedroom and Helena asked if he was okay before giving him another intense embrace. But viewers were sceptical of the scenes and criticised producers for laying sad music over their conversations. Viewers said they 'weren't buying it' when it came to the 'sad edit', as they felt it was an ill-judged attempt at a 'redemption arc' for Harry.

But the couple have now decided to split, with Tommy already reuniting with his villa ex in a TikTok video, leading fans to speculate that they're back on. Tommy and Emily Moran enjoyed a brief fling while in the villa, before he dumped her for Lucy after getting to know the blonde beauty in Casa Amor. But in a TikTok shared on Tuesday evening, Tommy and Lucy looked cosier than ever as they glammed up for an evening out. Then, in a cryptic move, Emily sang along to the lyrics 'Daddy's Home' by Usher, as Tommy appeared in shot. Lucy posted a TikTok of her own yesterday too, which saw her strutting her stuff in a pink top and shades to the lyrics 'don't you wish your girlfriend was hot like me.' Fans have flooded the comments of both posts, questioning what has happened between Lucy and Tommy. One person wrote: 'Are they together or is he with Lucy?!' while a second questioned: 'have you and Tommy split xx.' The Sun contacted Tommy's rep for comment, and Lucy's representative chose not to comment Love Island fans slam dumped villa boy as they spot moment his 'mask slipped' in 'nasty' rant Earlier this month, the pair joined Maya Jama on Love Island Aftersun to address the infamous voicenote that has gone viral on social media. Lucy explained: "So obviously, like, we've probably all done it... sent voicenotes to friends and obviously I really did trust that friend and with the Tommy situation, I was obviously saying he's a very nice boy and that's why I wanted to get to know him. "I did say till the end, but it weren't the final, I meant the end... I would like to be with him in the future. "Someone with really good morals and also before going on the show, my dad did say to me he's the kind of boy he'd like me to bring home because he's very respectful." The Liverpudlian then apologised for her "rude" comments about Megan after she branded her a "f**king little slapper". Lucy continued: "Obviously to talk about Megan as well, I should never have commented on someone I'd never met before, so I do really apologise about that because I'm not that type of girl and it was very rude of me to do that as well." Tommy then tried to defend Lucy following the backlash she's since received. He told Maya: "You said as well, at the time, we're all just characters on the screen to her. "I know you were very excited to be going on one of the biggest reality show's in the country... emotions were high and you were speaking to one of your close friends. "I think it's been blown out of proportion a little bit because I've said things to my friends in group chats, which if got leaked, it might have made me look like a bad person, but it's just to your mate, you never expect everyone to listen to it." Maya insisted: "That's definitely not a good friend, I hope you blocked her after that." Lucy admitted she's no longer pals with the person who leaked it. 5 5
