Overview

• Natalia Grace, a Ukrainian orphan with dwarfism, was adopted by Kristine and Michael Barnett in 2010, who later claimed she was an adult posing as a child.
• The Barnetts successfully petitioned to change Natalia's legal age to 22 in 2012, later abandoning her in Indiana while they moved to Canada.
• A 2023 DNA test confirmed Natalia was a child at the time of her adoption, contradicting the Barnetts' claims and reigniting public interest in her story.
• Natalia now resides with the DePaul family in New York, focusing on her education, pursuing her GED, and aspiring to become a teacher.
• Hulu's 'Good American Family,' featuring Ellen Pompeo and Imogen Faith Reid, dramatizes the events from multiple perspectives, highlighting issues of trauma, bias, and conflicting narratives.
