Meet Irvin Randle, the trendiest grandpa on the internet right now.
Randle, or “Mr. Steal Your Grandma,” has taken the internet by storm with his smoking good looks. The 54-year-old started taking photos with his selfie stick about a year and a half ago and posted them to his Instagram page not really thinking much of it, but his page quickly took off and has now reached over 125,000 followers.

Randle had to be told about his fame from his daughter who saw that he was all over Twitter and being called “#MrStealYourGrandma.”
“My daughter called me from California and she said, ‘Dad, you’re on Twitter now.’ And I said, ‘No, Jessica, what are you talking about? I don’t have a Twitter,’” Randle shared with KHOU. She meant that Randle was going viral on the micro-blogging site.
And is it any wonder? Randle is super stylish and on top of his fashion game.

“I’ve always had this type of ability for fashion and when I was younger, I’d look in the GQ Magazine and say, ‘I want to dress like that,'” he shared with KHOU.
Along with being fashion-forward, Randle spends time working out and with his grandchildren.

Since going viral, Randle had to quickly adjust to the fame and attention he was receiving. He made an appearance over the weekend at the Essence Festival where he was able to do a meet and greet with several online fans.
