- Renée was an insecure child because her parents
were hipies and always busy
- Nothing comes easy to Renée
- She was born on the living room sofa when her parents were
19 and 22
- Her parents left the church and were communists when they
were young
- Her mother worked as a nurse and had night shifts and her
father wasn´t interesed in the children so he left her and
her sister alone at night
- Her sister used to scare Renée when they were
alone at night by telling her that "the Majesty" was coming for her.
Renée didn´t konw who/what the Majesty was, but
she was really scared and ran out of bed and hid in a corner
- Her childhood hero was Pippi Longstockings
- When she was older she began to rebel against her
father´s rules
- Her childhood was poor. The family lived in a hippie
community, then moved to a small apartment and didn´t
have much money
- When she was 13 she got her first part-time job in a bakery
and then later in a greengrocer´s
- When she was 16 she moved in with a friend who was a model
and she learned tips and tricks from her
- She didn´t care about fashion, it
didn´t mean anything to her - all that mattered was the money
and every time she was offered a modelling job her first question was
"how much?"
- She said no to becoming a Bond babe and then stopped her
modelling career
- Her first marriage failed because they were too different
and fought a lot
- She first met Thomas Helmig when he saw her in a shop, and
he walked up to her and asked for her telephone number. Later he then
came to visit her and after 1 1/2 minutes they had their
first kiss
- Now she is older and she has finally spoken to her dad
about her childhood and they are friends
