People Think My 4ft 3 Wife Is My Daughter | LOVE DON’T JUDGE

A MARRIED couple with a 2ft height difference get mistaken for father and daughter. Nanette Kilmer, is 4ft 3, while her husband Richard is 6ft 2. Despite being 37-years-old, it’s not uncommon for people to assume Nanette is Richard’s daughter. The couple met through a dating website – when Rich was based out of Afghanistan for work and Nanette lived in the Philippines, where she was born. After speaking on the phone regularly, the couple took it to the next step meeting in person at the airport. And although Richard knew Nanette was petite he didn’t realise the extent of the height difference until that moment. The couple have also had to contend with assumptions about Nanette being a mail order bride – even though after marrying the couple settled in the Philippines for a few years. Richard and Nanette now live in upstate New York and have one daughter who simply knows her dad is tall and her mum is small. Richard told Truly: “We've had people take pictures, we've had people yell across the street, we've had people who actually approach us, but anybody who ever meets Nanette, instantly forgets that she's as small as she is because she's so much larger in life.”
