Do you remember the name, Mason Reese? He was huge in the 1970s for being the most popular commercial kid of that time period. He is a former child actor and appeared in several commercials that you might remember, from Underwood Deviled Ham to Post Raisin Bran, and Dunkin' Donuts. Recently, the 57-year-old, who is only 4ft 10in tall, had his heart broken when 27-year-old adult webcam model Sarah Russi broke up with him after three years of dating. The reason? His claim on the Love Don't Judge webseries that of the lovers he's had, she was not the best. For her part, Russi spoke to Femail and commented, "It's been messy. He's said mean things to me and I've said mean things to him, but our relationship sadly just became like roommates." While they were dating, many claimed that he was her sugar daddy, though the two of them denied that money had anything to do with their relationship. They also said that because of the obvious height difference, they often got stares when they went out in public, which they eventually got used to. Meet Mason Reese and Sarah Russi Mason Reese and Sarah Russi / Barcroft Media The two explained that their relationship was mainly based around common interests, mutual respect, and a similar sense of humor. “Truth of the matter is I don’t see myself as being in her league, so when I look at a beautiful young 26-years-old adult model I don’t think, ‘Oh she is gonna be in love with me’," Mason says. “When she first expressed interest in actually being in a relationship with me I think I was just shocked as anybody," he said, “A lot of people have come out and been like, ‘Really, you are with that dude? Why? Is it for the money? Is it because he is your sugar daddy?’” Mason Reese and Sarah Russi / Barcroft Media Sarah has allegedly worked as a sugar baby before, but she said that, again, her relationship with Mason had nothing to do with money. “The idea of being a sugar baby is it can be fun sometimes, like getting paid $300 for dinners, but ever since I started talking to Mason I just decided that I don’t want that anymore. I feel like I’m happy to be in a relationship with him," she said before things went south. Mason has also confirmed that she'd never asked him for a single penny. “I am really happy with Mason. I don’t need to be with him for his money,” noted Sarah.
