The woman from Los Angeles whose name is Mikel Ruffinelli has the world’s biggest hips, which are an amazing eight feet around. The 39-year-old is 420 pounds and 5 feet 4 inches tall. She is very sure of her health and has no plans to lose weight.
Mikel was happy to say, “I love my body and I don’t see any reason to lose weight because I don’t have any health problems.” She is proud of her body and says, “I love my curves, I love my hips, I love my attributes.” She doesn’t plan to change what she eats, but she works out and keeps her waist 40 inches, which is smaller than her hips 99 inches.
Even though Mikel is sure of herself, her unusual body size causes her daily problems, such as making it hard to use the shower and getting unwanted attention from other people.
“Men don’t fancy skinny girls,” she said, but she thinks many men like her unique shape.
Her husband, Reggie Brooks, and she have been married for about 10 years. When asked about Barcroft TV, Brooks said, “She had a sweet personality that really spoke to me.” “Every time someone asks, I like to say, “I have a license and can work with my heavy tools.”
Still, Ruffinelli’s 100-inch-wide hips make it hard to do normal things. The World Record Academy says the plus-size model has to drive a truck and stay in a chair that is made to fit her body at home. A close friend said that she faces problems every day, like trying to fit through doorways and sleeping in a bed that is 7 feet wide.
Ruffinelli began to gain weight after having her first child when she was 22 years old.
“I blame being pregnant,” she said. “But I eat a lot, so I don’t see why the weight would go to my hips any other way.” Every day, “lots” has about 3,000 calories.
“Many years ago, I felt bad about my hips,” Ruffinelli said. “My body taught me to love it as I aged, and now I’m not ashamed to show it off in public.”
