Who is Nicole Poturalski? Meet Brad's companion
By Allan Hall
Nicole Poturalski has brains as well as beauty and her 10 years on the catwalks of the fashion world has helped her become multi-lingual and she can speak in five languages.
A Capricorn, whose birthday falls on January 2, the brunette beauty hails from Bergkamen, Germany, which is in the old industrial Ruhr region and is of Polish heritage.
On her Facebook page, she reveals she is single and listed her former city as Warsaw.
Her modelling career has taken her to fashion shows in New York, Paris and Milan and she has been a cover girl for ELLE, Cosmopolitan and Marie Claire. She is also a favourite for British designer Vivienne Westwood.
At 13 she wanted to be a marine biologist but was apparently spotted by a talent scout in Disneyland Paris and her parents agreed to allow her to model.
But she still completed her Abitur - German A levels - and founded an organisation devoted to helping sharks.
She has long gone by the first name of Nico.
While she boasts a long list of accomplishments, the model is particularly proud of her son, Emil, who makes regular appearances on her Instagram account.
