Charli Worgan, 27, 4ft 2in made acquaintance with her husband Cullen Adams at a World Dwarf Games and tied the knot last May. They formed a lovely and warm family with a two-year-old daughter and a baby yet to be born.

The family has received many positive comments online since they shared their daily life photos. But Worgan added that: 'I have learned not to retaliate and just ignore and block anyone that insults us.'

Despite being small, the family enjoyed their lives like anybody else: 'We might all have dwarfism but our lives are full of fun and happiness. 'There's no limit to what we can do together and we love nothing more than enjoying lunch and days out in the sunshine.'

But the parents do have to face some problems concerning the children. As she and husband suffer different forms of dwarfism, she explained: 'Our children could have inherited both forms which generally results in a fatal outcome.'

Fortunately, the girl inherited mother's form even she may have spinal issues. Worgan is currently pregnant with her second child and will have a planned caesarean.

She always has optimistic view of life: 'We haven't yet experienced many problems related to our conditions and always ensure we keep ourselves fit and strong by working out in the gym or at home.'

Ex-husband charged in murders of Ohio couple

PHOENIX (AP) — The ex-husband of an Ohio woman was charged with the murders of her and her husband, according to court and county records.

Michael McKee, 39, was booked Saturday and is currently being held in Illinois, according to the Winnebago County Sheriff's Office. He is alleged to have shot and killed the couple, Dr. Spencer Tepe, a 37-year-old dentist, and Monique Tepe, 39, in their Columbus home. There were no county court records in Ohio reflecting whether McKee has an attorney yet.

Dispatchers first received calls of concern, including from Spencer Tepe’s boss, when he didn’t show up for work, which the boss said was “out of character.” Columbus police discovered the Tepes on the second floor of their home on Dec. 30 with gunshot wounds when officers conducted a wellness check. Their two young children were in the home and unharmed, police said.

Police had released security footage earlier this week of a person of interest in a dark hoodie and light colored pants who was walking in an alley near the couple's home between 2 a.m. and 5 a.m. — the window of time in which investigators believed they were attacked.

Official reports from the Franklin County Coroner’s Office won't be completed for several weeks, but a spokesperson said in a Tuesday email that the couple died in an “apparent homicide by gunshot wounds.”

McKee and Monique Tepe married in 2015 and filed for divorce two years later, according to records from the Franklin County Clerk of Courts. McKee's address is listed in Chicago.

Monique and Spencer Tepe married in 2020, according to the couple's obituary.

Family members described the Tepes as extraordinary people and proud parents with joy-filled lives. Monique Tepe was a caring and bubbly stay-at-home mother, and Spencer Tepe was passionate about dentistry and taking care of his family. The couple hosted many gatherings of family and friends.

McKee's next court date is set for Monday.
