About Estella Warren

Estella Dawn Warren (born December 23, 1978) is a Canadian actress, former fashion model, and a former synchronized swimmer.

Warren was born in Peterborough, Ontario, the daughter of Esther, an elementary school principal, and Don Warren, a used car dealer. As a synchronized swimmer, she represented Canada at the World Aquatic Championships. She moved to Toronto at the age of twelve to train with the national synchronized swimming team, and after becoming the senior national champion at seventeen, Warren had the chance to move on to the 1996 Summer Olympics. She is a three-time Canadian national champion, and the solo bronze medallist at the 1995 Junior World Championships.

During a high school fashion show, a talent agent sent a Polaroid picture of her to a New York City agency, which triggered the start of her modelling career.
