She first started noticing that her hips were growing at the age of 22, just after the birth of her first child. Although her waist measures 40 inches, her 100 inch hips hold the record for being the largest in the world. “Some people assume I’ve had surgery to enhance my body shape – but it’s all natural, she insisted.

“It’s the result of having four children but having large hips also runs in the family.”. Mrs Ruffinelli has no plans to lose weight, but she admitted that her size has occasionally caused her problems: If I travel by plane I have to buy two seats because the seats won't accommodate me, so it gets quite expensive.

The 39-year-old's waist measures just 40 inches but her 100 inch hips are as so wide she can't fit through doorways and has to buy two seats on planes and trains.

And after daughters Destynee, 13, Autumn, 8, and Justyce, 7, followed, her weight and hips ballooned further. But despite her curves she stands at just 5 feet 4 inches and has a proportionally small 40-inch waist.

I think that it's the result of having four children, but large hips also run in my family.. Mikel was a normal-sized youngster and even in her early 20s tipped the scales at around 180 pounds. But at 22, she put on more than 50 pounds after having first child Andrew, now 18.
