Early Life and First Steps

Caroline Receveur was born in Épinal, a town in France. Her dad, Jacky Receveur, used to be a soccer player. From a young age, Caroline dreamed of becoming a model. When she was 14, she got her first chance to try out for a modeling job.

After finishing high school at 17, she moved to Paris. There, she signed a contract with a modeling agency. However, the modeling jobs she got weren't enough for her to live in Paris full-time. She also worked as a waitress in a nightclub in Metz. She couldn't become a full-time model because she wasn't tall enough for professional modeling.

Caroline's TV Journey

In June 2008, Caroline joined the second season of a TV show called Secret Story. Her secret on the show was that she was a couple with another contestant. She left the show after two weeks.

In 2010, she returned to reality TV. She appeared on shows like La Maison du bluff and Les Anges de la télé-réalité.

Later, in 2012, Caroline became a main actress in a TV series called Hollywood Girls. She played a character named Caroline Valès. She also hosted the second season of La Maison du bluff in 2013. She left Hollywood Girls in 2014 after three seasons. In 2014, she also co-hosted a show called Le Mag for a few months.

In 2016, Caroline was a contestant on Danse avec les stars, which is the French version of Dancing with the Stars. She danced with a professional partner named Maxime Dereymez. She wanted to dance to honor her father, who had passed away earlier that year. She was eliminated from the competition in November 2016.
