Francesca Reale is an American actress best known for her popular roles on the Netflix show Haters Back Off and Stranger Things as well as for her supporting role in the award-winning Napoleon Dynamite. She has also appeared in a number of films such as Antichrist, Marie Antoinette, and Love Actually. Reale was born in Buffalo, New York and is of Italian and Jewish descent. Her most notable feature is her height which is 2.6 inches which is a very common feature among the Italian-Americans of that time. However, it was not until recently that people would realize that she might have been a member of that ethnic group. Her parents were both born in Italy and her paternal grandfather was a chef who came to live in America when he was young.
At the age of 16, Reale’s family had the foresight that they should look after her in America and so they sent her to live in Buffalo, New York where she became known as Francesca Reale. From there she continued to gain work as an assistant to chefs and later began performing on stage and film work, finally finding success with her role as the love interest of Dr. Helen Sander in the movie Napoleon Dynamite. Since then, she has gone on to star in other successful films such as The Secret Life of Shopaholic and Just Go With It, which made her one of the best-known and sought-after actors in Hollywood.
Over the years Reale has maintained a relatively high height for an American woman, standing at a respectable seven feet tall. This is particularly remarkable considering that in modern times it is not uncommon for women to be shorter than seven feet. However, the reason for Reale’s particularly great height remains a mystery. Some doctors believe that it has to do with the structure of her bones, while others think it has to do with her unusually good posture. Whatever the case may be, it seems clear that Reale has definitely put her career and her image ahead of her height.
