Woman once dubbed 'most beautiful girl in the world' explained health struggles as she's pictured aged 24
A woman who was once referred to as the 'most beautiful girl in the world' opened up about her health struggles while growing up.
Thylane Blondeau started modelling for the likes of Dolce & Gabbana, Versace, and Hugo Boss when she was just four years old.
The French beauty queen - who is the daughter of former Premier League footballer Patrick Blondeau and TV star Véronika Loubry - was a very sought-after child model when she was younger, walking for Jean Paul Gaultier and gracing the pages of Vogue all before her tenth birthday.
She was later named as 'the most beautiful girl in the world' in the TC Candler’s annual 100 Most Beautiful Faces of the Year list. The title she was given, however, never seemed to resonate with her on a personal level.

Blondeau told The Telegraph in 2018: "People are like, ‘You know, you’re the most beautiful girl in the world’, and you’re like, ‘I’m not, I’m just playing with my iPad'.
"Even today, people are like, ‘You are the most beautiful girl’, and I’m like, ‘No, I’m still not, I’m just a human being, a teenager'."
In 2022, she revealed on social media that she had a large ovarian cyst removed.
“This year I saw three different gynaecologists, I’ve seen more than four radiology centres in Paris and all of them said the same thing, ‘Don’t worry, you have nothing, it’s all in your head,’” she wrote, adding that she is 'finally feeling better, I’m finally feeling free'.
Now aged 24 and still modelling, Blondeau turned heads at the Miu Miu show during Paris fashion week on Monday (6 October).
The businesswoman - who is also founder of beauty and hair care brand Enalyht - struck a pose outside the Palais d’Iéna, showing off her effortless style in a brown wool suit paired with a cream V-neck sweater and matching pointed-toe heels.
She completed the minimalist look with clear glasses which complemented her long brown hair.
Now, in a recent Instagram Story post, Blondeau hit out at people who accused her of having work done.
“I know that in this generation people tend to do things very early, but I’ve never touched anything,” she wrote.
“You can look at photos of me when I was younger nothing has changed.
“People love to compare and make things up but just because I wear makeup or use a lip liner doesn’t mean I’ve had my lips or face done.
“At some point we need to stop with that.”
Back in 2019, she topped TC Candler’s annual 100 Most Beautiful Faces of the Year list again, writing on Instagram: “I just can’t believe it myself … thanks so much @tccandler and everyone who voted. I’m thankful to all of you.”
