Sir Patrick Stewart

Although he is not particularly short, standing at 5ft 10in, Sir Patrick Stewart is annoyed that he has shrunk with age.

Speaking to The Observer, the 83-year-old actor said he and his wife Sunny Ozell, 44, had noticed he was not standing as tall as he used to.

He shared: "Somehow I’ve lost two inches over the past two years. I don’t know how the hell it’s come about. My wife, who’s younger than me, significantly, has said, ‘Well, it’s aging – you shrink.’ When will it stop!"
