Grandmother Hattie Retroage is single so naturally, she has joined Tinder.

The 83-year-old isn’t looking for grandfather type matches. She wants younger men.

‘Younger men, they get off on getting a woman off – very different from when I was younger,’ Hattie explains.

The New York-based mum-of-two and grandma is in tune with her body and sexuality.


A former dancer, Hattie was married for over 25 years and says she and her ex-husband had a ‘wonderful sex life.’

Missing the intimacy and embracing the casualness of modern dating, Hattie exclusively goes out with men many years her junior.

‘I screw, I sleep with, I make love with many men and not one of them has said, “I want you for my life”,’ she says.

Hattie says that she is often referred to as a ‘cougar’ but is trying to reverse the negative preconceptions attached to the lifestyle.

‘Cougars, as I see them, are not beasts of prey, they are an exquisite animal,’ she says.

‘I’m never on the prowl. I never approach a man, men always approach me.’

Hattie has a steady selection of casual lovers she connects with through dating apps such as Tinder.

Since she began using the app eight months ago, she claims to have met close to 50 men.

Her Tinder bio reads: ‘Hattie, 83, fascinating older beauty. Seeking a steady younger friend/lover for a shared life of adventure and passion. No pro-Trump and no players.’

The youngest man she has been with was aged 19, although she insists she believed he was older.

Hattie is currently dating Shaun, 33, making him 50 years her junior.

After the split with her ex-husband, Hattie put an advert in the newspaper seeking younger men to sleep with.

She claims she was inundated with messages and had to ‘audition’ the potential partners.

When she began dating, she had hoped to find a meaningful connection with another man.

But now she is just enjoying the carousel of different suitors.

‘I’m not agonising,’ she adds. ‘I’m grateful that at this age and this stage that I have as many lovers as I want.

‘My life goal is to change the awful, decrepit view of ageing – view and experience, and turn it into something exciting. A life-loving adventure.

‘The depth of life, you can’t avoid it. But the shallowness of good sex, that’s what is good enough for me.’
