Brazil’s loftiest teen is set to become the world’s tallest bride after her compact fiancee popped the big question.
Aspiring model 18 yearold Elisany da Cruz Silva – who is a staggering 6ft 8ins tall – has been dating 5ft 4ins Francinaldo da Silva Carvalho for more than three years.Despite a massive 1ft 4ins between them, Francinaldo had no problem increasing the�distance�by dropping to one knee after a romantic stroll along the beach.
The newly engaged couple have not always seen eye to eye and Francinaldo had to work hard to get the ring on Elisany’s finger.

‘When we met I had already turned 16,I was still a bit childish and so I was just playing around with him for a while and I got so annoyed with him – as if he was a rival that I hated.I just didn’t like him and wanted to hit him every time we met.’I told him many times, ‘do not ask me to marry you because my answer will be no’ – I think that’s what he was thinking.I was so nervous when I saw him there. I don’t even know how I coped.’

�But little�Construction worker,Francinaldo has a big heart and remembers their meeting a little differently.
He said:…

�’The first time I saw her I went to get some bread and I noticed her from a�distance.I checked her out and she also checked me out straight away.Then I just thought, “I need to be with that girl”. I always found her beautiful.’am always boasting about being with her.Everyone thinks she is beautiful – my friends think she is beautiful.They always ask me to take her to meet them but she won’t go because she’s embarrassed.She is a person that is very different and I know I can make her happy.Our relationship is special because she understands me and I understand her

And the hate eventually turned to�love for�Elisany when she became jealous of Francinaldo’s prowess with the ladies.

‘He was talking to another girl and I was jealous,’ she said.He intrigued me – I wanted to know more about him.’

Despite the pair being completely in love, not everyone is as happy about the new engagement.Elisany’s mother, Ana Maria Ramos, said: ‘

I don’t know how this could�happen�- this�proposal.It was a surprise – no-one was expecting it In spite of everything she is still a very young girl with a lot ahead of her.She is sometimes a bit difficult to him but I’ve never seen him treating her badly.He has been an excellent person.’
