She’s now one of the world’s most famous models, but Cara Delavigne’s career path didn’t become clear until she was in her teens.

These days the supermodel, 22, positively oozes self-assurance on the catwalk for designers including Chanel and Burberry, but claims she lacked confidence as a youngster:

“I never thought people would actually want me to be a model.” she said. “I was a very weird gremlin, awkward-looking child.”

Speaking to The Sun, the model added:

“I was a feral kid, a big tomboy. Beauty wasn’t important at all and it still isn’t in a way.”

Cara regularly makes fun of herself on social media, posting adorable family photos to her Instagram account.
