Danielle Lloyd Biography

Lloyd was born in Liverpool, England in 1983, the daughter of Jackie and Arthur Lloyd, a bank manager and engineer respectively. At the age of three months, Lloyd contracted whooping cough, resulting in damage to her lungs, this leading to her developing asthma. She attended Haileybury school from 1995. Lloyd claims she was bullied in school however, the headmaster of one of Lloyd's old school, St Hilda's, Chris Yates said, 'There's no recollection of her ever being persecuted, she is lying and no teacher can ever recall any incidents where Danielle was bullied. In fact I've been lead to believe by her former friends that the opposite is true.'

At the age of 16, Lloyd began modeling, frequently entering competitions in and around Liverpool. Upon finishing school, she decided to pursue a dual career in modeling and as a beautician specializing in massage. She is a qualified nail technician.

Just as she was beginning her modeling career, Lloyd was brutally attacked by her boyfriend of the time. She was dragged from her moving car after an argument with him, suffering terrible abrasions and severe bruising to her body and losing most of her hair. Lloyd later said of the attack:

Deep down you can't forget what's happened no matter how much counseling you have. You blame yourself and tell yourself you deserve it - I was given help when I most needed it and I want to be able to help others now. Too many women (1 in 4) suffer domestic violence at some time and support centres such as Women's Aid aren't able to answer all of the calls due to being under resourced. I'll always do all that I can to help raise awareness and help people. Being in a violent relationship, you are constantly living in fear - and that's no way for anyone to live their life.'
