Katyucia and Paulo, who stand at 35.2 inches and 34.8
inches respectively, hope to enter the Guinness book
of world records once they tie the knot – thus
becoming the world’s shortest married couple.
The title currently belongs to another Brazilian couple:
46-year-old Douglas Maistre Breger da Silva and 43-
year-old Claudia Pereira Rocha. They measure 35
inches and 36 inches respectively and got married 18
years ago.
The couple who are from Brazil met on social media

genetic condition called diastrophic dysplasia
dwarfism.
‘I found her very beautiful from the first moment I saw
her,’ he said.
Paulo is a legal secretary while Katyucia owns her
own beauty Salon.
Katyucia is said to have started shopping for a
wedding dress ahead of their big day.
