Natalia Barnett has the entire media talking when questions on her age arose. Some believe she’s a grown, 30-year-old woman and some believe she’s a kid.

The couple claimed and managed to prove that Natalia was actually a grown woman, 22 at that time and tried to kill the family on numerous occasions.
