Eilish's relationship with the 31-year-old musician immediately sparked a lot of talk when the pair were first spotted together.

Fans noted that the 11-year age gap is made worse by the fact that Rutherford has known Eilish since she was 15 years old.

It seems that the couple decided to get in on the joke with their Halloween costumes this year.
