She is the daughter of Maïté Foret, the fourth child of a family of five.[1] She started modelling at the young age of 12[4] with the Newmodels agency in 2003. At age 13, in 2004, she became famous in Belgium for a backless picture which was displayed as a gigantic poster for the Levis paint brand (100 m by 20) on the Madou Plaza Tower in Brussels.[5] At the same age, she went on the catwalk for Armani in Italy.[6]
