As much as Daryl Dixon fans love Norman Reedus, the recent unveiling of his 20-year-old model girlfriend Cecilia Singley seems to have hit a nerve.

Recently at the Z100 Jingle Ball 2013, Norman Reedus and girlfriend Cecilia held hands as they walked the red carpet, confirming rumors of the relationship which had been circulating since April of this year.

Just how curious are Norman Reedus fans over his girlfriend situation? There is a 100-page forum thread entirely dedicated to the topic.

A particularly controversial topic is the fact that Norman Reedus is 44 and Cecilia is allegedly only 20, having just graduated high school in 2011 from Ben Franklin High School in New Orleans.

"I had some photos done with one of New Orleans' most talented photographers, Megane Claire. Her website was discovered by Ford, who asked her to shoot their girls," said Singley regarding the start of her modeling career. "She asked them to take a look at the pictures she had just taken of me, and I got a call and a contract that very same day."

"When I got my first contract, I was in a very serious relationship with someone who did not approve of my career choice; he thought I was being exploited for my looks. Some guys have a really hard time letting their girlfriends be in front of the camera... I dated someone after that, but then I had to move to Paris, so it was long distance thing, and that didn't work out either. I am really trying my best to stay single... it has been hard, I am a lover, I fall in love quickly!”

And what does the Internet think of Norman Reedus and his girlfriend Cecilia Singley?
