The story went viral after a clip from Channel 5’s “Millionaire Age Gap Love” resurfaced on TikTok, garnering nearly two million views in just 24 hours. In the footage, Sir Benjamin enlists his staff member Jess to navigate the world of online dating as he searches for a younger woman to settle down with.
Despite having no children from his previous marriage, Sir Benjamin believes he’s “not too old” to become a father and has taken precautions by freezing his sperm. With characteristic humor, he admitted his unfamiliarity with dating apps: “Everyone these days is on these dating apps, and so I don’t know anything about it except that I read the newspapers and it’s nothing but trouble”.
The internet’s reaction has been overwhelmingly positive and humorous, with comments ranging from “What’s his Tinder name? I want to see something” to “I have my c-section in June and after that, I’m free”. According to reports, Sir Benjamin did become a father at age 75, though it remains unclear if he found his match through Tinder.
As of May 2025, women have reportedly been lining up to woo the now 78-year-old millionaire on Tinder as his search for love and an heir continues.
