People stop Ed Brown, aka Big Ed, on the street all the time when they recognize the '90 day Fiancé' star. But even before he started appearing on the TLC reality series, Brown was used to drawing attention from strangers for a different reason. 'Since I was a young child, young adults and kids especially, they would always stare at me. They just have always found me kind of interesting. And I think it was due to my physical characteristics,' Brown tells TODAY.com.
Big Ed and growing up with a neck condition As a child, Brown experienced his fair share of bullying over his appearance — “They would call me ‘neckless’ and ‘no neck’ and ‘no neck Ed’ and everything under the sun, and it was very hurtful,' he says — but he also discovered one silver lining. “I always have had a lot of upper body strength. So I was, I was able to use that to my advantage. And so I became a kind of a bodybuilder at a very young age,' he says.
