A 2FT 10in exotic dancer has told of how she's judged for her relationship with her 5ft 7in boyfriend over both their height difference and 13 year age gap. Cassee, 32, who holds the title of the world's smallest stripper, met Blake, 19, via Facebook dating last summer. She recalled: "A glitch meant that Blake's age had mistakenly shown up as 37, so I messaged first, a jokey message saying, 'You look pretty good for 37'." Though neither had been in an age gap relationship before, the pair began chatting anyway. Realising there was a spark, they soon fell for one another, moving in together after just one month. Unfortunately, since going public with their relationship, they have had to deal with a lot of judgment - both on and offline. Cassee, who was born with a condition called cartilage hair hypoplasia, which has affected her stature, said: "Someone screenshotted a photo of us I had shared and posted it all over social media. That led to lots of comments that were very unkind." The whirlwind nature of their relationship also had some loved ones worried. "Some friends were concerned about Blake's age and maturity level," said Cassee. However, the pair continue to go from strength to strength and are happier than ever. By speaking out, they hope to prove that their relationship is not something to be judged. Cassee concluded: "I want people to know that you're not disgusting or wrong for being in a relationship with a little person. But also, my height doesn't represent all of me. Why can't Blake just want to be with me because he cares about me or finds me beautiful?" Follow Cassee on social media at https://www.instagram.com/sasseecassee89/
