It didn’t take long for the modeling scouts of South Africa to recognize the potential of young Candice Swanepoel. She was scouted when she was just 15 years old.
According to Marie Claire, Candice was scouted while she was shopping. This is a fairly common story. Lots of models-to-be are discovered at the mall or something like that. Model scouts check out public places to see where the next runway sensations may be found. Gisele Bundchen was scouted while she gorged on a Big Mac. Kate Moss was on a family holiday when she got spotted.
Candice is five foot nine. She may not have attained this height at 15, but she was probably already quite tall for her age. Height is important. Kate Moss was a “short model” at five foot seven. Candice’s height was a lucky break for her, as was her naturally slim build. She works out to stay fit but has the right genetics to be a model.
Her Baby Daddy Is A Male Model
Candice could easily have dated a famous rapper, or a troubled pop star, or a womanizing pro athlete. Instead, she chose a man who does the same job that she does. Her fiancee and baby daddy is her long-term partner, Hermann Nicoli.
According to a Glamour Magazine article, her partner is a male model, he’s Brazilian and he proposed to her in the later part of 2015. His nickname for his gorgeous partner is “little cat”.
Candice and Hermann still aren’t married but have a second baby on the way. They are a rock-solid couple. It’s a safe bet that they will tie the knot in the future. If you check out his official Instagram (@hermannicoli), you’ll see a very handsome man with an adorable baby and a stunning fiancee.
