Austin Jones and his amazing wife encountered some criticism about their love story. Some doubters implied that they stayed together solely because of a “substantial disability payment.” Yet, Austin and his wife, Muckala, responded in a way that truly warmed our hearts.
Austin Jones and his wonderful wife, Muckala, faced some skepticism regarding their romantic relationship. Haters believed that their love story was based solely on Austin’s disability payment.” However, Austin and his wife, Muckala, responded in the best manner possible.
Austin Jones, born in 1996, manages a business while grappling with spinal muscular atrophy with respiratory distress (SMARD), a rare condition that renders him unable to walk. This illness also gradually weakens his muscle strength, making it difficult for him to move and work normally. Despite numerous hurdles, Austin takes pride in building a resilient family, establishing a thriving business, and is currently nurturing a joyful marriage. However, individuals on social media decided to pick on his relationship.
At seven years old, Austin was close to death’s door when he suddenly stopped breathing. Luckily, thanks to the support team around him, he eventually recovered. Since that day, a ventilator and a wheelchair are attached to him everywhere.
Though some people believe Austin has difficulties with his wheelchair and ventilator, he doesn’t see it that way at all. According to Austin, they “gave him a life and a perspective he could have never imagined.”
However, not everyone is happy for the young man.
Despite Austin facing unique challenges related to his disabilities, he has triumphantly explored 38 states, pursuing his dreams alongside his lover. During his travels, he endeavors to make a positive impact on people’s lives.
Austin now recognizes the importance of cherishing life’s value and strives to create lasting memories. From a fragile little boy who was expected to live only two years, he has grown into a gentleman and defied all the odds, embracing a life brimming with adventure.
Having fully known the meaning of life, Austin cherishes every moment, and is always grateful for his wife, daughter, and adorable twins who complete his family.
Yet, it’s disheartening that many people decided to pick on Austin’s life instead. In August of this year, Austin’s brother shared TikTok videos of Austin’s wedding to extend the joyous occasion to their followers. However, the post garnered a diverse array of reactions.
While some comments expressed support, a large number cast doubt on the authenticity of the relationship. People were asking why Austin’s wife would choose to marry someone with such health challenges, and speculations were raised about her motives.
Varied opinions were formed, suggesting that maybe she married him for his wealth, or that she was aiming for the monthly disability payment that Austin received. While some extended congratulations to the couple, others discerned perceived discontent in their videos. Questions even arose about Muckala’s parents’ perspectives on the marriage, thus making the couple extremely uncomfortable.
Nevertheless, love prevails.
Regarding the unhealthy rumors surrounding his marriage, Austin fought back the hate by sharing screenshots of negative comments on Facebook. “I didn’t know it was possible to be as miserable as the people in these comments,” said the 27-year-old.
Austin’s brother also took to TikTok to clear things up about his brother’s marriage. He emphasized that Muckala wasn’t with Austin for his money, highlighting that they weren’t that rich to begin with. They reside in an old and cheap farmhouse from the 1800s, and that their finances are far from extravagant.
Presently, Austin and Muckala are leading a happy life with their three children, despite all the negative comments out there.
The spouses joyfully celebrated Thanksgiving in 2023 with their twin children. They shared a heartwarming TikTok video, expressing their affection for each other. There was an overflowing output of love and encouragement in the comments, sharing the family’s joy.
Several also pointed out the striking resemblance of the twins to their father. “They look like [their] daddy!! Beautiful family,” said a TikTok user. Many others echoed these sentiments, showing the family with love and respect.
Usually, the wives become the pillar of strength for their husbands with disabilities. However, the role can be vice-versa in the Jones’ relationship. Austin would often become Muckala’s beacon of hope whenever she faced challenges, especially when she was in labor.
