Abby Champion- a look at model’s life

Abby Champion, a model from Alabama, has not only captured Shawarzenegger’s heart with her beauty but also with her down-to-earth Southern charm. Growing up in Birmingham with her three siblings, Baskin, Josh, and Luke Champion. Abby’s journey from a quiet street in Alabama to the high-fashion runaways of the world is nothing short of inspiring.

Champion’s modeling career began when she was signed by Next Models Worldwide in 2014. And it took off when a recruiter noticed her at the 2014 Miss Teen USA event, where Baskin was representing Alabama. It was the beginning of a remarkable road to success. Both sisters were signed to agencies around the same time. Both sisters shared the spotlight in a photoshoot for Aeropostale and walked the runway together at Birmingham Fashion Week in 2015.

Furthermore, her portfolio boasts prestigious brands such as Prada, Ralph Lauren, Chanel, and Givenchy. In a 2021 interview with V magazine, she recalled the spark she felt for modeling at her first fashion show, describing the adrenaline and power she witnessed in the other models and her aim to become a professional model.

The turning point in her personal and professional life

After the successful show at Birmingham, her life turned around, when she decided to move to Los Angeles, California. This was a significant chapter in her life, as she pursued her modeling career, and met the love of her life in the name of Patrick Schwarzenegger.  Despite being busy with her hectic modeling career, she found time to visit her family in Alabama. She often posts her visits to family emphasizing her strong bond with her family. Her values also played a crucial role in her love life with Patrick Schwarzenegger.

In one of her old interviews, she expressed that her upbringing instilled values of good manners,  the importance of faith and family, and a love for good food. Her values are somewhat similar to Schwarzenegger’s as he was also taught discipline, respect, and the importance of family while growing up.  The demanding nature of her career motivates her to stay fit and healthy. She showcased her dedication through diverse workout routines like boxing and training with a personal coach she has a passion for maintaining her strong persona and prefers longevity over shortcuts.

Despite being present on Instagram she remains private. Her approach is quite different as she uses social media for only work purposes. Beyond the glitz and glamour, the Next model is an outdoor enthusiast, with hiking being her favorite activity. The other common interest that resonates with Schwazeneggers, is her love for nature and having pet animals. The couple seems to be inspired by South Korean culture where lovers often wear matching clothes.
