A woman who is constantly mistaken for Cara Delevingne said she ‘loves’ being compared to the model but admits she struggles dating, because men obsess over her being their ‘celeb crush’.
Reilly Harrison, 25, from Dallas, Texas, has revealed she gets told daily that she looks like the British supermodel, and that she finds the comparisons ‘flattering’ and loves her striking eyebrows.
She said that she used to struggle with her bushy brows, but is ‘grateful’ to Cara for making them ‘cool’ after wanting to get them waxed or plucked when she was 16.
Now strangers tell her she looks like the star and Reilly herself can see that she shares similar features and mannerisms – such as the same shaped mouth – with the catwalk legend.
But Reilly admits she finds the comparison ‘irritating’ when she is trying to date – because she often gets ‘fetishized’ for looking like the model.
