The woman with the world’s longest nails has answered the one question she’s always asked.
Diana Armstong, from Minnesota, U.S.A., hasn’t trimmed her exceptionally long talons since 1997.
The last time her nails were measured, they were collectively 42 feet long and 10.4 inches.
Armstrong refuses to cut her talons for a heartbreaking and sentimental reason.
The mom hasn’t trimmed her nails since the tragic death of her 16-year-old daughter Latisha, who died from an asthma attack in 1997.
Opening up, Armstrong said (per the Daily Star): “That was the worst day of my life.
“The day before, she’d spent time polishing and filling my nails, so after that, I just couldn’t cut my nails off.”
Latisha would manicure her mom’s then-average-sized nails every weekend before her passing.
The mom said she kept the reason why ‘to myself for years,’ adding: “My nails are a part of me. I can’t ever imagine cutting them off.”
