29-year-old Cassia ‘Sia’ Shells is obsessed with mermaids so much that she thinks she is a real-life mermaid and swims in a tail.
Cassia, who lives in Toronto, Canada with her fiancé Adrian, has always loved mermaids and used to collect mermaid dolls when she was a child.
Cassia told Barcroft TV: “I think what I really love about mermaids is that they are rebels because they own their own space, and they won’t let anyone take that away from them. And they’re also really beautiful and mysterious.”
“I definitely believe I am a mermaid. I don’t have a medical tail but I have silicon and fabric tails that I can play around with and swim with and that’s when I feel my best.”
Cassia, who is a musician and influencer, has blue, glittery items in her house and even has two mermaid tails and her fiancé totally supports her.
Adrian said: “You know what, after being together for almost a decade now, it’s been infused into my life. It’s nothing more than just putting on a pair of pants or I guess in her case, a pair of fins each morning.”
“The way I relate to her obsession, I’m very big on the ocean.point 282 |

She said she learned how to swim in the tails and when she first time put on a tail, she felt like a dream come true.
Cassia, who is going to marry her fiancé Adrian soon, says her wedding is going to be mermaid themed.
She said: “My wedding is going to be very mermaid themed. Adrian doesn’t know because obviously, it’s bad luck to see the dress. But even the dress is mermaid looking, so I’m very excited. I was even thinking of taking shots in the water. Like having everyone go in the water, and take underwater shots that might be fun.”
“I might even bring my mermaid tail to take some nice shots of him rescuing me on the shores.”
“I definitely think mermaiding and mermaid life is going to be part of my every day for the rest of my life.”
