Anna Camp Opens Up About Age Gap with Girlfriend Jade Whipkey Amid Social Media Backlash

Red Carpet, Real Talk

Anna Camp, best known for her roles in Pitch Perfect and True Blood, has never shied away from the spotlight. But last week, it wasn’t a new film or TV project that put her center stage—it was her relationship with stylist Jade Whipkey. The couple made their red carpet debut at the Bride Hard premiere, instantly drawing attention not just for their chemistry, but for their 18-year age difference: Camp is 42, Whipkey is 24.
 

Online Backlash, Unfiltered Response

As headlines and social media feeds filled with commentary about their age gap, Camp took a direct approach. She responded publicly on Instagram, addressing the criticism with clarity and candor. “I’ve dated men exactly my age and Jade is FAR more mature than any of them,” Camp wrote, emphasizing that their bond is rooted in shared interests and open communication—qualities she says surpass any number on a birth certificate.

Camp didn’t stop there. She acknowledged everyone’s right to an opinion, but made it clear she’s wishing everyone well, especially during Pride Month—a time she sees as a celebration of authenticity and love in all forms.
 

Relationship Timeline: From Hints to Headlines

The couple’s romance first surfaced in February, when Camp hinted at her new relationship in a playful TikTok video. When asked what she expects from a man on a first date, Camp quipped that she no longer has expectations—because she’s dating women, and “it’s great.” The video quickly made waves, and soon after, Camp began sharing glimpses of her happiness with Whipkey on Instagram.

Their relationship went public in a big way at the Bride Hard premiere, where the couple’s debut was met with both celebration and scrutiny. For Camp, this new chapter comes after two high-profile marriages—first to Michael Mosley, then to Pitch Perfect co-star Skylar Astin.

Pride, Perspective, and Moving Forward

Camp’s message is simple: connection matters more than convention. She’s found more in common with Whipkey than with anyone she’s dated before, and she’s not letting public opinion dictate her happiness. As Pride Month unfolds, Camp’s unapologetic stance is resonating with fans who see her as a champion for living—and loving—on your terms.

In a world quick to judge, Anna Camp is choosing joy, authenticity, and a relationship that feels pitch-perfect to her.
