After going through a lot of online controversies Shauna Rae has finally decided to date other men.
In past, 23-year-old Shauna was in a relationship with a handsome blogger, Dan Swygart from Wales.
During the shooting of her TLC reality series named I Am Shauna Rae, they two made a strong friendship connection.
However, when the video went viral on social media, netizens started criticizing the couple, and the majority criticized Dan, for being in a relationship with a woman who physically looks like an 8-year-old girl.
Some people could not stop themselves to go too far and called Swygart a pedophile for dating Rae.
However, Dan came forward and made a video where he called out their haters who criticized them for their relationship and asked them to respect Shauna.
In December, Dan uploaded a video clip on his social media account and shared that Rae used to suffer a lot and didn’t have a happy and peaceful childhood.
He told that he had nothing to do with her physical appearance because his connection with Rae was based on the kind of human she is, and she is an amazing person.
It was also revealed by Dan that, after watching Rae’s emotional strength in her show he felt so inspired by her and decided to surprise her by sending flowers along with a card in which he wrote, “Go live your best life. Wishing you all the happiness you deserve.”
He further added that he already knew that after the show they will going to get some hate, but it was not really matter to them.
“It’s very important to remember that Shauna is an incredible 23-year-old woman who has a disability,” he said. “So as you are building a connection with her, it’s important to acknowledge her disability and look past that and build it with who she is an individual.”
He added, “She’s this incredible, inspiring 23-year-old woman who just happens to be a little bit short.”
According to the travel blogger, Shauna is a great human being with an amazing personality, who deserves to have a relationship and friendship with anyone she wants.
Before meeting in person, the duo used to talk on the social media, and then after sometime Dan came to meet her for the very first time in her hometown in Long Island.
“As soon as you say that she can’t have a real-world connection with someone else, you dehumanize her, which is absolutely disgusting,” he said.
For the people who are curious about Shauna Rae’s real age, she is currently 23 years old. But, because of her physical appearance she looks like a child.
Rae’s height is just 3 feet, 10 inches tall and only 50 pounds. Someone who does not know her real age could think of her as a third-grader.
When Shauna was a baby she had to battle brain cancer and because of this her brain growth was stunted. She went through several treatments for good health, and became better but it stopped her growth.
Despite having a difficult childhood, Shauna didn’t lose hope and never let her disability stop her achieving milestones in her life. However, there is one department where she couldn’t get more progress, which we call ‘love’.
Rae received tons of hate and negative comments from people on the social media, and now she revealed that her relationship with Swygart has been ended and she is happily moved on in her life.
Recently, in a I am Shauna Rae episode, she was ready to go on a blind date, but at the last moment the date was cancelled, and then the 23-year-old Rae decided to spend some quality time with her sister and dad at home.
“I was relieved when he canceled,” she told in the video. “It just kind of showed all of these characteristics I don’t want in a person in my life.”
“Even though it was supposed to be a date, I probably enjoyed it better this way with my family than I would with a complete stranger,” she further said “I’m still open.”
