Mini-Me and girlfriend go splitsville

LONDON, Aug. 12 (UPI) -- The London Mirror got an exclusive this week: Mini-Me star Verne Troyer is breaking up with Genevieve Gallen after a three-year relationship.

Troyer -- who starred in the popular Austin Powers films -- is just 32-inches high. Gallen stands 5-foot-9-inches in her heels. He barely reached her kneecaps.

But the 29-year-old model from Detroit told the Mirror to make no assumptions about her sex life with Troyer: "I am a very satisfied woman. I have dated a few celebrity men, and Verne has a larger heart and a larger personality than any 6-foot actor I have ever met. He is the most amazing man to be held by."

Troyer, born in Centreville, Mich., first appeared as a stunt double for a 9-month-old child in "Baby's Day Out" in 1994. Aside from the Mini-Me role, he's also appeared in Harry Potter and Men in Black movies.

Gallen told the Mirror she still has hopes of becoming Mrs Mini-Me. "After me, Verne has said he could never imagine loving another woman. And I believe him."
