Two housemates with a 51-year age gap say they have "lots" in common - they do most things together and never argue.

Ella Wilson, 22, moved in with 73-year-old retiree David Cox in Manly, Sydney, in September 2024, after backpacking around Australia.

She found his room through word-of-mouth - after a customer at the cafe she works in introduced the pair.

Despite their generational difference, Ella says David is the “best housemate she’s ever had” - and the pair cook together, go running together, and eat ice cream together.
