Patrika Darbo, precisely 5ft 2 (157.5 cm) tall, is an American actress whose petite stature has defined her endearing on-screen presence in television and film. Her compact height perfectly suited her role as the feisty matriarch in Step by Step, where she brought warmth and humor to family dynamics.
In Days of Our Lives, Darbo's 5ft 2 frame amplified her character's bold personality, making her a standout in soap opera drama. She once quipped in a 1990 newspaper interview, "I'm only 5-foot-2," embracing her height as a key part of her relatable charm. Darbo also shone as Rosie in the 2018 film God Bless The Broken Road.
