Romee Strijd was born on July 19, 1995 in Zoetermeer, Netherlands. She is known around the world for being a beautiful and successful model. She was first approached with a modelling contract when she was out shopping with her mother in a shopping district of Amsterdam. The model recruiter was struck by her stunning appearance and was very interested in signing her a competing company could obtain her talents. Romee declined the offer because she was surprised by it and was not ready to dip her toes into the world of modeling. Her hesitation would not last long as she later became interested in modeling and decided to accept the offer. That contract was her first step on her rise to fame in the modelling industry.

Personal life

Romee was born to very supportive and loving parents. Her parents always inspired her to live the life of her dreams. Some parents can get caught up in forcing or molding to children into pursuing what they want for their children. Romee’s parents were the opposite, they just wanted her to be happy as she pursued whatever she had passion for.

Romee only has one sibling, a sister named Ise Strijd. Romee and Ise are as close as loving sisters can be. Romee’s Twitter account was full of positive sentiment for her sister when she came to visit Romee in New York. The two pretty sisters light up any room they walk in to.

Romme’s boyfriend is a very lucky man for multiple reasons. He is lucky to be dating such a wonderful and beautiful model. But he is also very luck that Romme is a loyal and committed girlfriend. With all the temptation and distractions that come from success and fame, Romme has remained a steady and devoted lover. The two have been together since their teenage years. They share a similar story to the famous lovers of the popular young adult drama Dawson’s Creek. On that show, the two main characters were lovers that took their love from childhood into adulthood. Romme and her boyfriend, Laurens van Leeuwen met each other during their teenage years when Leeuwen’s sister introduced him to Romme. It would be the best encounter of his life.

The two have been together for such a long time, it’s natural for the media to ask her questions about marriage and starting a family. Romme is not shy about their future plans. She said the first step is that they’ve both agreed to live with each other. They’ve also begun to have serious talks about their long term future. Romme has publicly stated in interviews that she wants to marry Laurens and also have his children. WIth a beautiful model ready to start a family with him, Laurens needs to be careful not to mess anything up. He can’t question her commitment because of how long they’ve been together. He just needs to make sure that moving in together is what pushes them towards marriage and not what pushes them away.

Social media is one of Romme’s main tools in maintaining and updating her fan base. Social media platforms are full of amateur models but Romme is a real professional. Her reach and follower count dwarfs the amateurs that try to live up to her accomplishments. Romme is mainly active on Instagram and Tumblr because of their focus on photography. Romme’s assets are her body and looks, traits that don’t translate as well on platforms like text heavy Twitter. Romme has millions of followers on Instagram which is quite impressive for a pro model. Romme’s modeling career has been for lucrative for a young woman in her 20s. It is estimated that her net worth is around 1.5 million dollars. Her husband, Laurens would be an insane fool to ever do anything that would cause Romme to leave him and end their relationship.

Laurens doesn’t just hang back on the sidelines while his trophy girlfriend does all the work. With her increasing popularity, it was clear that Romme would need more than his love, she would need his help and assistance. Laurens became a business consultant to help Romme with her administrative tasks, things that a model should never have to deal with and stress over.

Career

In 2011, Romme signed a deal with the New York based DNA Modelling Agency. In 2014, she got a huge break as she was selected as one of the newcomers in the famous Victoria's Secret fashion show. She made quite an impression at the show which resulted in many fruitful projects for her. In 2015, she was chosen to be one of the Victoria's Secret Angels along with nine others when Victoria's Secret decided to increase the number of their angels from the previous five to ten. Even though the field was larger and thus less competitive, it was still huge for Romme to be selected as a Victoria's Secret Angel. The exposure and attention that a model can get from being a Victoria's Secret Angel is priceless.

Romee has worked with many prestigious brands such as Prada, Burberry, Calvin Klein, Louis Vuitton, and DKNY. Any model that can boast an impressive lineup of clients like Romme won’t have a hard time finding future work. Just having Prada alone on her list of credits makes her an attractive prospect to most companies around the world. Working with these high end brands has given Romee a certain type of modeling persona. When a photographer or art directors needs a woman that can be sexy and elegant, they reach out to Romee because they know she can fill that role with grace.

Romee has also been featured in editorials of the Vogue U.K. and Netherlands. She can also be found in pages of the French and Dutch Elle and the famous Spanish Harper’s Bazaar. She also works with two other modelling agencies, VIVA Model Management (Paris, London and Barcelona) and the Milan based Why Not Model Agency. She is too big for just one modeling agency to house her talent.
