The official story is that they met in 2005 but that's not true, it's just the PR story created for them. It's pretty common conspiracy theory in Finland that he is her godfather. I even remember downloading a Civ2 scenario in late 1990s where the plot was that Niinistö had married his goddaughter Haukio and that caused a civil war in Finland.
Ah, I take it you're from Finland (or nearby) and know much more about this than I would. I was not aware of this, thank you for adding a bit more context. I got the impression this was just a meme randomly seen on social media and reposted here. Anything is possible with these people and she is 28 years younger than him so in that sense it seems entirely plausible.
Jenni Haukio's grandfather Toivo Haukio was also quite influential politician in the National Coalition Party and Sauli Niinistö is from that same party. They're also blood related 10th cousins.
Godparents are not typically related by blood. On the surface it seems like incest when it’s really more pedo-like. Either way it’s gross
