In a world obsessed with image, Matt Montgomery and Brittany Jacques are proving that love has nothing to do with size and everything to do with connection.
For most of her life, Brittany struggled to feel accepted. At 23, she’d endured a string of unhealthy relationships where she was either pressured to lose weight or objectified for her curves. Tired and hurt, she finally decided to stop chasing love—and start valuing herself.
Then, in August 2020, fate intervened. She met Matt on Facebook. He was lean, gentle, and instantly drawn to her. Despite their physical differences, their bond was immediate.
At first, Brittany was hesitant. “I’ve had men tell me they’d leave if I didn’t go on a diet,” she admitted. “It broke my confidence.” But Matt was different. He didn’t try to change her—he simply loved her.
As their relationship deepened, the criticism started. Strangers left cruel comments online. People stared in public. Matt’s masculinity was questioned. But they stood strong—because they knew what they had was real.
In January 2022, Matt proposed. Through it all, they’ve embraced their love publicly, hoping to inspire others. “You deserve love—fully and completely,” Brittany wrote on Instagram. “What we have is proof that real love has no size.”
Now, they’re proud to show what a “mixed-weight” couple really looks like: happy, loving, and entirely authentic.
Their story is a reminder that love doesn’t need society’s permission. It just needs two hearts brave enough to believe in it.
