OFFICIALLY A @victoriassecret ANGEL! I don’t know where to begin but I’ll try: I never thought it would happen and it has exceeded all my expectations. I’m very excited to announce that I’m officially a @victoriassecret ANGEL! Thank you for believing in me. There were times where I let my own thoughts hold me back and it was a hard climb away from those but my family, my team, Ed, and everyone at VS they were always there to support me and uplift me. I am proud to represent Hungary, and most importantly, all of you in this new chapter of my life! Thank you all so much again ♥️♥️♥️

The "angels" are models who represent the Victoria's Secret brand and need no additional casting to participate in fashion shows. The models who don't have this title must pass a two-stage casting before taking part in the show.
