Wendy Winters
Wendy Winters was born on January 1st 2002, she is the youngest of three children. Her parents are English and Spanish playwright Derek Winters and French Egyptian model, Ámalie Blanc. Winters was born in Paris and spent her early years living on a farm in the south of France until the family relocated London in 2006 when Wendy was five. She has described her early years as being the happiest days of her life, however tragedy struck the family in 2010 when Amalie was in a fatal car accident, leaving behind her two sons and Wendy. The incident made a then eight year old Wendy reserved and confused: "I couldn't wrap my head around the fact that she was there in the morning when I went to school and gone forever by the time I got home. I just didn't understand how a person could vanish that easily". Her father Derek Winters opened up in his 2018 autobiography that he turned to alcohol after his wife's death and admitted to abandoning his children. At just eight Wendy would walk herself to and from school, while her oldest brother Sebastian left home to join the army and her fifteen year old brother Peter battled addiction. In his autobiography Derek wrote that Amalie's death "tore the family apart". In June 2013, Peter Winters committed suicide by hanging in the family home after years of struggling with drug addiction. Wendy discovered her brothers body hanging from the shower head and according to her father, "she silently fell to the ground and didn't move an inch for two days, then she never mentioned him again". The incident made Wendy become a tomboy, she only wore her brothers clothes and stopped attending school altogether, however she continued to dance ballet four times a week at a local dance studio. Her ballet teacher nominated her to audition for the Royal Ballet school of London, in which she was successful and earned herself a scholarship. Wendy boarded at the school, however she struggled to make friends and felt like an outsider. It was while studying at the school that a twelve year old Wendy was scouted by casting agent Kate Lip for game of thrones. Despite the shows success, it only made her more of an other at school. She was expelled at age fifteen for smoking in her dorm and skipping too many classes. From there, Wendy moved in with her aunt in France and bought a home in LA where she starred in a string of successful movies, including Pulp Fiction and Taxi Driver. For the duration of her career, rumors of Wendy suffering from anorexia have surfaced the internet due to her significant weight loss over the years, however Wendy has never commented on the allegations. She does not share a close bond with her father, the two fell out after Derek published a play titled 'The Difficult Daughter' which told the story of a young girl who blames her father for her mothers death, they have reportedly not spoken since the plays publication in 2017. Wendy currently resides in London with close friends.
