And while 64-year-old Randy admits he knew her intentions were financially motivated, he set out to change her priorities.
With Randy hoping for love and Carrie simply seeking a sugar daddy, he joked that they would "see who comes out on top".
And as it turns out, Carrie was able to "get the bag" while also falling in love.
"Randy started off as my sugar daddy and now we're in love so I'm finally marrying my sugar daddy," she explained on the Truly Show.
The couple first met on Tinder five years ago, with Carrie openly seeking financial help and Randy, fresh from a 25 year marriage adament to never marry again.
Thinking they were both in the relationship for a fun time, not a long time, Carrie admits: "My first intention was to milk him dry."
But when Randy told her to give him a month to change her life, she decided to take a chance.
Randy claims he fell in love with his fiance within six months, and soon changed his mind on marriage.
And despite people calling Carrie a gold digger, Randy said her honesty about her financial situation only attracted him more.
Now, she calls him her "first and last sugar daddy", joking that she gets him a pack of gum for special occasions while he lavishes her with whatever she wants.
I'm 32 years younger than my man - his son's only 2 years older than me & trolls call me a gold digger but we're in love
Randy revealed that the most expensive thing he has ever purchased for Carrie was her engagement ring, popping the question in Vegas.
And while he originally intended to elope on that same trip, the couple are now planning a big wedding with no budget.
With no wedding date in place as of yet, the couple are enjoying the engagement phase, with Carrie already having signed a prenup.
Randy shared that his bride is already in his will anyway.
And when it comes to haters, the couple said they don't care as they are "having a blast".
A-list age gap relationships that have stood the test of time Kris Jenner & Corey Gamble - 25 years
The Kardashian matriarch, 69, met her younger man, 44, at a mutual friend's 40th birthday party in Ibiza. They've been together since August 2014. Sam & Aaron Taylor-Johnson - 23 years
The director, 57, and actor, 34, reportedly met at a film audition in 2009, and were married by 2012. The pair share two daughters and Sam has two children from a previous marriage. Rosie-Huntington-Whiteley & Jason Statham - 20 years
The model, 37, started dating actor Jason, 57, in 2010. They were wed in 2016 and have since welcomed a son and a daughter together. Catherine Zeta-Jones & Michael Douglas - 25 years
Catherine, 55, was introduced to Michael, 80, a film festival in 1996 and engaged three years later. Shortly after their engagement, the couple welcomed a son and married in 2000.
The judgement is mostly from online trolls, with most people in real life simply mistaking them for father and daughter.
Randy joked that he often gets a thumbs up from other men when they realise the nature of their relationship.
He added that he loves the attention they receive when they walk into a room.
More on age gap relationships
Another woman met her husband when she was 19 and he was 41, and now they have a family together.
And a 25-year-old woman shared the backlash she receives for dating a 76-year-old man.
A woman who is dating a man 32 years older than her revealed that she is often called a gold digger.
Plus, a couple with a 21-year age gap shared an insight into their relationship.
People say how another age gap couple met is a red flag but they disagree.

Emmerdale confirms pregnancy story for Charity

Sarah Sugden (Katie Hill) celebrates the successful embryo transfer next week in Emmerdale, but Charity Dingle (Emma Atkins) is secretly in turmoil… Sarah's baby journey has had a mother of a rocky start. Due to her fanconi anemia diagnosis, it became apparent that surrogacy agencies would almost certainly be unable to help. After an attempt to convince Victoria Sugden (Isabel Hodgins) to act as a surrogate, Charity stepped up for her granddaughter, vowing to aid her in her bid to become a mother when all other options seemed exhausted. The first embryo transfer failed following Charity suffering a fall while out on a walk with partner Mackenzie Boyd (Lawrence Robb). After discovering she was bleeding, Charity later confided in ex Vanessa Woodfield (Michelle Hardwick). To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video Next week, Cain Dingle (Jeff Hordley) offers to pay for another transfer using funds he's been hiding from his wife Moira (Natalie J Robb). More Trending Sarah is grateful and the embryo transfer goes ahead. The following day, Charity is confirmed pregnant. As an elated Sarah plans a celebration in the Woolpack to announce her news, privately, Charity secretly sinks into despair. What's troubling her?

Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 Fronting Netflix's Love Is Blind UK seems to have eclipsed his band's success Credit: Netflix Matt said with a laugh: 'Busted did a tour at the end of last year, we did Australia, Japan, Mexico and Brazil. 'And we had a few people turn up and go, 'We didn't know you were in a band. We know you from Love Is Blind, so we thought we'd come and see your band'. 'I was like, 'Cool, welcome'. I love it.' Matt and Emma are back to present a second series of the show that ­follows singles who try to find their perfect partner, sight unseen, to get engaged and marry on the show. It is Emma's first big project on screen since undergoing keyhole surgery earlier this year to repair a hole in her heart. Love Is Blind UK was filmed last year and now she is well enough to be out promoting the run. She said: 'It's really nice to be back. It was nice to have a little time off to recover and focus on what I needed to do. But now it's full steam ahead and back to work, which is nice.' Two couples from series one are still happily married, so are Matt and Emma worried about delivering on series two, which drops on Netflix from August 13? Emma said: 'We filmed it straight after the reunion for series one so the characters from season one were so fresh. I was like, 'How are we ever going to match that?' ' Matt added: 'Watching it happen, being part of the show, you're just rooting for them.' Love is Blind UK podcast gets a new host Despite the trend for shows to have celebrity spin-offs, Emma doesn't think that could ever work here. She said: 'You'd constantly be trying to guess who it was, wouldn't you? 'There'd be certain people that you'd absolutely know who it was. Imagine if Rylan was in there, or Alan Carr. 'You'd be like, 'That's f***ing Rylan!' '
