Height difference has been a major issue for couples especially because of people like us who judge them for their choices.
We agree that the height doesn’t matter when you are choosing a partner for life. Such minor things can be worked out at a later stage. So, we are here with some freshly brewed content on couples with major height differences.
Shakira and Gerard Piqué
You know when it is “love”. Your petite structure or your partner’s giant muscles don’t bother your equation. The Latino pop sensation, Shakira and a Spanish professional soccer player, Gerard Piqué have such a love story. It’s been a decade and the two of them have been going strong.
Gerard, 6’4” towers over Shakira who is just 5’0”. This couple with a height difference of 16 inches have two sons together, Milan and Sasha. The two share their birthdays on February 2, the only difference is that the two of them are 10 years apart, Shakira being the older one.
Jay Cutler and Kristin Cavallari
A former Chicago Bears quarterback and a petite actress sound like a cute couple. With a bumpy road, in the beginning, this struggled to stay together. However, things fell in place after they got together in the fall of 2011. Jay Cutler who stands tall at 6’3” and Kristin Cavallari is just 5’3”, with a height difference of a foot, you can see the couple looking at each other with the brightest smile.
The couple got married in 2013 and have three gorgeous kids, Camden Jack, Jaxon Wyatt, and Saylor James.
Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher
When we talk about on-set romance, these two are the first one who makes us feel all gushy! Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher have been a favorite for most people and their oh-so-perfect romance is phenomenal. Going back to 1998, these two were in the same sitcom. They used to explain their bonding as that of a brother and sister.
Well, they couldn’t pull that off for a long time and ended up falling in love. And trust us, the 10 inches of difference in height was not an issue for them. Mila being the lady at 5’4” and Ashton who dwarfs her at 6’2” make a perfect couple.
Sacha Baron Cohen and Isla Fisher
Comedian Sacha Baron Cohen and actress Isla Fisher had to be on the list. With a height difference of one foot, the couple looks gorgeous together. What is with the charming gigantic men getting all the petite ladies?
The two met way back in 2002 in Fisher’s home country, Australia. There has been no looking back since then and they are still going strong. Fisher didn’t even think twice before converting to Judaism just to get married to Baron Cohen in 2010. The couple has three beautiful kids, two daughters, Olive and Elula, and a son, Montgomery.
Lisa Bonet and Jason Momoa
This smokin’ hot couple is not just 14 inches apart but they are also 12 years apart, Lisa being the older one. Jason who turns out to be 6’4” leaves his wife at 5’2”. Lisa has a daughter, Zoe Kravitz with rocker Lenny Kravitz.
Zoe is just nine years younger than her stepdad. The couple makes us feel jealous of all the hotness. The couple has two kids together, a daughter Lola Iolani Momoa, and a son, Nakoa-Wolf Manakauapo Namakaeha Momoa. These kids are going to have a tough time with the complications of this hot couple.
Reese Witherspoon and Jim Toth
The big star of the golden scree, Reese Witherspoon never looked this tiny to us. However, in front of her husband, Jim Toth, she looks like a dwarf, with a height of 5’1”. The two of them have a height difference of one foot. Her husband is a talent agent and is not as famous as Reese’s ex-flames like Ryan Phillippe and Jake Gyllenhaal.
The two of them met at a pub when Jim’s drunk friend harassed her and Jim got the situation under control. Not a fairy tale but who cares about such incidents when you get your ‘forever’ out of fit.
Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith
When we talk about power couples Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith are the ones who come to our mind. This stunner couple is goals. Do you remember Will’s sitcom, Fresh Prince of Belair? Well, Jada had auditioned to be his wife. However, the show makers thought that she was too short to be his wife.
We are glad that Will had no insecurity about it in real life and was okay with a height difference of 14 inches between him and his wife. The two have two kids together, a son, Jaden, and daughter, Willow.
Jessica Simpson and Eric Johnson
The former pop star, Jessica Simpson and her husband, NFL player Eric Johnson have a difference of an entire foot. We couldn’t believe that until we saw her standing with her husband. We think the little pop stars and the massy sports stars definitely have some spark between them. This couple stands at a difference of 12 inches in height, Jessica being just 5’3” and Eric stands tall at 6’3”.
This ideal couple has a perfectly adorable family. We are glad Jessica got out of that marriage with pop star Nick Lachey of 98 Degrees. We cannot un-see their appearance on the show ‘Newlyweds’.
Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard
This couple has been together for more than 12 years and even the difference in their height is just an inch more than 12 inches. Two of them met for the first time at a hockey match and they have been going strong since then. Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard are still obsessed with each other.
When your “forever” strikes at the door, nothing can stand between you two, at least not a petty height difference. Dax has always given the credit to his co-star Jason Bateman for the motivation he needed to propose to Bell.
Carmelo Anthony and La La Anthony
Well, we won’t say La La Anthony is petite. She stands at 5’6” and is a gorgeous woman with a great height. However, her husband, Carmelo Anthony’s 6’8” make her look like a dwarf in front of him. Though Carmelo is considered short according to basketball players’ standard height but he is way too taller than his wife already.
Their relationship has been through rough roads but is currently working on their love life. The 14-inch difference in height has nothing to do with the difficulties of a relationship. The two have a son together, Kiyan Carmelo Anthony.
Chris Hemsworth and Elsa Pataky
We couldn’t expect any less from the ‘Thor’. There is no girl who could match up to his charm other than his wife, Elsa Pataky. These two join the ‘one foot’ club as the height difference between the two of them is 12 inches. Elsa, who stands below the average height of women at 5’3”, is the girl who got to be with the charming Chris Hemsworth.
These two have a perfect family scenario with three kids. Together they have a daughter and twin sons.
Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze, Jr.
This couple from the 90s is way more refreshing than any couple from this generation. Their romance started blossoming on the sets of “I Know What You Did Last Summer”. However, they didn’t start dating before the 2000s. Their height difference of nearly a foot is not noticeable due to the chemistry they share.
Their daughter, Charlotte, and son, Rocky are as beautiful as their love story.
LeBron James and Savannah Brinson
Who could have thought that your excellent height could be one major issue in finding a suitable partner? Well, LeBron thought he would not find anyone who could match up to his personality. However, his high school heart stuck by him and the difference of 13 inches in height didn’t stop them from having their forever.
LeBron, who is 6’8” in height and his wife who stands at 5’7” got married in 2013. They have three kids together, LeBron James, Jr., Bryce Maximus James, and Zhuri Nova James.
Peter Dinklage and Erica Schmidt
This one pair is the definition of uniqueness. The husband, Peter Dinklage cannot stop himself from praising the love of his life, Erica Schmidt. Dinklage measures to be 4’5” and his wife is 5’6” in height. This couple is private about their love life and is focussed on their family.
They got married in 2005 and they haven’t revealed the name of their daughter who was born in 2011. Their privacy got to another level when they refused to reveal the gender of the second baby who was born in 2017.
Ashley Tisdale and Christopher French
Most of us have seen High School Musical during our teenage. The star from the movie is married her musician boyfriend, Christopher French in 2014. When you see their pictures, you know that they are head over heels for each other.
The difference of 13 inches in their standing posture doesn’t make a difference in their feelings. There are only a few couples who know what they want from life and they are one of them. They got engaged one year after being in a relationship. Ashley Tisdale defines the word ‘petite’ perfectly by standing at 5’3” and her husband’s height is 6’4”. They have seemed to sort their height differences!
Khloé Kardashian and Tristan Thompson
Kardashian sisters have been in the limelight for their show “Keeping Up With The Kardashians”. The sisters are currently ruling the social media world. One of the clan, Khloé Kardashian dated Tristan Thompson. She is an exception to the petite clan. Standing at 5’10”, her partner has managed to dwarf her by standing at 6’9”.
Tristan is 11 inches taller than the Kardashian. The basketball player has been revealed as a cheater in a relationship but the couple has decided to stay together.
Shaquille O'Neal and Laticia Rolle
Why would God do this to you? It is freaking tough to find love with same height level and then God gives you a height of 7’1”, what are you supposed to do then? Shaquille O'Neal was in the same situation. Like all other basketball players, he had a major height issue. He looks taller even in front of his fellow players, so it was going to be tougher for him.
He did find his love in his now-fiancée Laticia Rolle whose height is 5’6”. They connect on a way higher level, so the 19 inches difference of height doesn’t really matter to them.
Hafþór Björnsson and Kelsey Henson
This guy was given the name ‘mountain’ for a reason in the series Game Of Thrones. This mountain found his snow in Canadian waitress, Kelsey Henson. The couple has received a lot of attention due to their huge height difference. The petite girlfriend (5’2”) is dwarfed by her boyfriend who stands at 6’9”.
Their pictures are just admirable as their height difference is worth taking a look at. This human version of Hulk has fallen in love with a Tweety and they seem quite happy with each other.
Vanessa Hudgens and Austin Butler
Another Musical star is on this list. Vanessa Hudgens and Austin Butler have a height difference that is stark. Despite a difference of about a foot, these two look adorable together. Their social media is filled with gushy posts and it is cute to see them showing off love for each other in this era where celebrity couples are trying to hide their relationship status.
Vanessa who is as tiny as 5’1” is drunk in love with her beau Austin Butler and their social media is proof.
Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth
This merry couple is not bothered by their height difference and it is because of their perfect romance. One of the Hemsworth brothers, Liam is dating a star who is way more popular than himself, but let’s face it, there are not many people who are more famous than Miley Cyrus.
Liam looks almost gigantic in front of Miley and it is due to their height i.e. 6’3” and 5’5”. Even after a rough road in the relationship, they have managed to stay together.
