Jessica Pardoe : Britain's Tallest Teens Girl Now Become Tallest Celebrity 6 feet 11 inch tall

Jessica Pardoe : Britain's Tallest Teens Girl Now Become Tallest Celebrity 6 feet 11 inch tall

Jessica Pardoe, 21, from Wrexham, North Wales who is 6ft 9in in bare feet touted as Britain's Tallest Teens Women, reports Dailymail on Monday (7/25/2011).




Jessica height may be inherited genes from his family. Father, mother, and siblings alsohave a height above the average British society. While Elisany not have ancestors orfamily superhigh. Elisany parents do not have enough money to find out the cause of the growth of abnormal height.
Beyond the advantages of having a tall body, Oxford University study showed a correlation between height and cancer. People who have more height, has the potential of contracting cancer.







Helen Porter, of the Tall Persons’ Club of Great Britain, said: “At 6ft 9in this lady is exceptionally tall. I have checked our records and ­currently our tallest ­female member is 6ft 8in.
“We certainly believe she must be the tallest teenage girl in Britain.”





Jessica weighed 8lb 10oz at birth and measured a long, but not unusual, 53cm from head to toe. But at 18 months she was much taller than other tots.

By the age of 11 Jessica was ­already 5ft 8in – 3in taller than the average British woman. “We think she has stopped growing now – she’s been the same height for 18 months,” says her mum Lisa.

If teenage girls are often hassles with high-heeled shoes worn in order to maximize the appearance, not so with Jessica Pardoe.





Because in the new age of 18 years, Jessica has a height of up to 6ft 9in or 205 centimeters, so that he no longer need to wear high heels.

Jessica's long legs that reach 38in or 98 centimeters and size 11 feet, often makes it rather difficult to get shoes or trousers according to size, so he had to order it specially.

“I adore my long legs but they cause problems buying clothes,” she says. “I can get away with wearing skirts and dresses as minis, but no high street ­trousers, jeans or shoes fit. I can get them online but they are much more expensive.” Jessica says

 “I’m single now but I’ve had a few boyfriends and go on dates,” she says.

Even so, Jessica admitted proud of her height.

"I'm proud to have a height like this. It makes me a lot of people talk about. But I do not take headaches if I looked different from teenagers in general. Many of the benefits I get, "says Jessica.

The advantage is one of them was when he was at music events, she was not covered with the heads of other spectators.

Jessica height that exceeds the average girl is due to his age factor genes from the father and mother. Her mother, Lisa, 41, is just over 6ft and her father, Andrew, 43, is 6ft 7in. Brother Niall, 17, is an inch taller than her at 6ft 10in, while stepbrothers Liam, eight, and Ethan, six, are 5ft and 4ft 8in.
