Rife clearly has no problems dating an older woman. He made it clear on social media, writing, "Age is just a number. Find someone you love, and take their breath away..." The post, however, has now been deleted.
Furthermore, the actress' family and friends have no issues with her younger beau. The source reveals that they approve of him.
"Everyone in Kate's circle loves Matt and are so supportive of this relationship. He really is the sweetest guy and makes her so happy! Her entire family thinks he is the nicest and most lovely person," the unnamed source told ET Online. "He is very mature for his age and is a great guy."
Coincidentally, Beckinsale is expected to star in a film called "The Only Living Boy in New York," which is about an older woman set out to attract a younger man.
Rife is best known for his appearance on Nick Cannon's MTV Sketch comedy show on episodes of "Wild N Out."
Beckinsale's romance with the 21-year-old started several months after director Len Wiseman filed for divorce. After 12 years of marriage, the couple called it quits. Wiseman and Beckinsale have no children, but the "Pearl Harbor" star has an 18-year-old daughter with actor Michael Sheen.
