A boy aged five has been banned from a church-run club because he wears princess dresses.

Romeo Clarke has a collection of 100 gowns and eight pairs of high-heel shoes which he likes to wear.

But the St Marie’s Catholic Primary School in Rugby, Warwickshire, told him he was ‘upsetting and confusing’ the other children.

His mother Georgina, 36, has lodged a complaint with the church claiming they are discriminating against her son.

The mother of four said: ‘I was so cross when I was told, I was speechless. All I could ask was ‘‘why?’’ Wearing the dress is his choice and if wearing it makes him happy it’s fine with me.

‘This is not a case of him being trapped in a girl’s body.

‘He’s normal but because he has three big sisters, he likes wearing dresses. What’s wrong with that?’

His father Winston Morris, 42, a builder, added: ‘I don’t care if he wears the dress. He can be whatever he wants to be.’
