Marine Vacth (born 9 April 1991) is a French actress and model.
Life and career
Vacth was born on 9 April 1991 in the 12th arrondissement of Paris.[1] She grew up in the Paris suburb of Maisons-Alfort. Her father is a truck driver and her mother an accountant.[2] Her surname is of Lorrain origin.[3][4]
She was educated at the Lycée Eugène Delacroix in Maisons-Alfort.
She practiced judo in her childhood, until she reached the brown belt.[5]
Vacth began her modeling career at the age of fifteen after she was scouted in an H&M store.[1] She notably became the advertising face of Yves Saint Laurent's perfume Parisienne, the French jeweller Chaumet,[6] and the ready-to-wear brand Chloé.[7] Although she worked in this field for several years, she later indicated that fashion did not align with her personal aspirations.
She started acting at twenty. She played "Tessa" in Cédric Klapisch's film My Piece of the Pie.
In 2011, she succeeded Kate Moss as the face for Yves Saint Laurent perfumes[8] and the Chloé brand.
She is signed to Traffic Models.
She has worked with Leonardo DiCaprio for Oppo mobile and appeared in a music video for DJ Cam's "Swim".
Personal life
As of 2014, she was living in Paris with her boyfriend, photographer Paul Schmidt, and their son Henri, born in that spring.[9][10]
