- She now resides with her mother and grandmother, creating a three-generation household.
- Williams advocates for better disability representation and awareness for people with dwarfism.
Four years after winning The Traitors, Meryl Williams has experienced a profound life change. The 30-year-old, who previously worked in a call centre and at H&M, can now pursue social media full-time. This career shift has enabled her to quit her previous jobs.
Williams now resides with her mother and grandmother outside London, creating a unique three-generation female household. She describes their dynamic as close, akin to sisters, with her grandmother even altering her clothes.
Born with achondroplasia, a form of dwarfism, Williams is a passionate advocate for improved disability representation. She actively campaigns to challenge stereotypes and increase awareness, particularly during Dwarfism Awareness Month in October.
Williams aims to demonstrate that individuals with dwarfism are not limited to specific roles like pantomimes or comedy. She emphasizes their capability to excel in all aspects of life, just like anyone else.
Looking ahead, Williams expressed interest in other reality shows such as 'I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Here!' or 'Race Across the World,' and even 'Celebs Go Dating.' She maintains an open, 'yes person' attitude, believing that opportunities can lead to unexpected paths.
