But at 32 years old, having grown against a backdrop of extreme size
prejudice, he finally found love – with a woman almost 2ft taller than him.

threat of being disowned by her family.

first child together.

He said: "I feel like God took something away and now he has given
something back. I have got a reason to live my life. God has given me what I
wished for."

The couple met in a mobile phone shop three years ago and both say it was
love at first sight.

more independence.
