Dwarfism is a rare condition that affects between 1 in 15,000 to 1 in 40,000 people. Those living with it often face discrimination, but many are now sharing their stories to challenge prejudice.
Charli, an USA woman with achondroplasia, married Cullen, who has achromic dysplasia, in 2012. Both dreamed of building a family, even though doctors warned of risks. In 2015, Charli became pregnant, and despite fears, their first daughter Tilba was born healthy with achondroplasia.The couple shared their journey online, quickly becoming an inspiration to thousands. They welcomed two more children in 2018 and 2020—one with dwarfism, and one of average height.
Today, Charli and Cullen are raising their three kids with joy and determination, showing that love, family, and happiness are not defined by size. Their story continues to inspire people worldwide to embrace diversity and acceptance.
