Bullied: Annie Hawkins-Turner, who has the world's largest natural breasts, told UK TV show This Morning of the cruel taunts she has suffered since childhoodThe rising number of breast augmentations may indicate that many women want bigger chests. But for Annie Hawkins-Turner, having large breasts has caused untold suffering.
The 52-year-old, from Atlanta, Georgia, who has the world's largest natural breasts according to the Guinness Book of World Records, has revealed in an interview today how she has been bullied since childhood.
Speaking to UK breakfast show This Morning, she admitted that she is taunted daily by strangers.
She told hosts Phillip Schofield and Jenni Falconer: 'When I go out of my house I have to think about what my day is going to be like and who is going to attack me today.
Uncomfortable: The mother-of-two would be a 102ZZZ in regular bra sizing'I'm just blessed in different ways than other people. It affects my son very badly because people stare.'
Ms Hawkins-Turner, who today makes a living as a glamour model under the pseudonym Norma Stitz, said that the bullying over her chest size began when she got her first bra at the age of ten.
'I don't know what size I was. I was just big,' she recalled. 'The only thing I remember about those bras is they were cotton and they stuck out just like footballs and that's when I knew I was different.
'Kids are some of the worst people in the world when it comes to picking on people. I was teased a lot.'
The mother-of-two says the size of her chest means that she struggles to perform everyday tasks, such as driving a car.
Daily struggle: Ms Hawkins-Turner's breasts hinder her ability to complete everyday tasks, such as driving a car She admitted she was devastated to learn that she couldn't even breastfeed when her children were born, because the size of her chest meant there was no comfortable way to place the baby against her chest.
Ms Hawkins-Turner also discussed her late husband of 13 years, Alan, who died six years ago.
'He turned my whole life around,' she said of the retired Air Force officer.
'He treated me like a queen. He loved me and he loved my kids. He was my angel, it wasn't just sexual.'
Ms Hawkins-Turner's chest weighs eight stone, and in terms of conventional bras,would require a size 102ZZZ.
But, she says, she will never get breast reduction surgery.
She explained: 'Every time I get a new doctor they offer me surgery but I don't need surgery.
'I've got a strong back and have never had back ache. I've had therapy on how to hold myself so I won't hurt myself.'
