The adopted girl who was accused of posing as a 22-year-old woman broke down in tears after she found out her real age.

Ukrainian-born Natalia Grace – who has a rare form of dwarfism – was adopted by husband and wife Kristine and Michael Barnett from Indiana, US, back in 2010.

However, the Barnett family claimed she was an ‘adult sociopath masquerading as a child’ who had allegedly made several attempts to kill them.

After the couple deserted Natalia in an apartment in Lafayette, Indiana in 2013 and moved to Canada, authorities pushed ‘neglect charges’ onto both of them, which were later dropped.

Meanwhile, Natalia has continuously denied all of the allegations made against her.

She told her side of the story for the first time in ID documentary series The Curious Case of Natalia Grace: Natalia Speaks, which aired last year.

In the documentary, Grace said: “I want you to know how old I am, I want you to know about my past because I want to know, too. I want the puzzle to be complete.”

During the opening episode, Grace visits TruDiagnostics, where she undergoes various medical and diagnostic tests to confirm her true biological age.

Doctor Halland Chen, from TruDiagnostics, brings Grace in to give her the news.

He explains: “Based on all the studies and everything being analysed, you’re more close to 22, which is pretty close to what you think… you’re almost 20. That’s two years.”

So this means that Grace was indeed around seven years old when the Barnetts adopted her – and not an adult.

After being given the news, Grace comments: “This one little piece of paper throws every single lie that the Barnetts have said right into the trash with a match.”

Grace, who attends the appointment with her adoptive dad Antwon Mans, then breaks down in tears as she adds: “This is so big, because literally this has been 13 years. 13 years of just two people lying their butts off.

“They ruined a kid’s life. They painted me as some big monster when in reality they were the ones.”

With Mans agreeing with his daughter, her voice cracks as she adds: “It just proves that I was not lying about my age. They ignored everything that was pointing to the truth just so they could create this stupid lie.”

The Curious Case of Natalia Grace: Natalia Speaks is available to watch on Amazon Prime Video and Discovery Plus in the UK.
