Caprice Bourret
The Caprice we see today is less about fame, and all about being the best mother, business woman, and role model that she can be. Once one of the most photographed women in the world, she still effortlessly stylish and is a great advocate for women, proving you don’t need to lose your sense of style when becoming a mother, as she combines it with her new life as a mum-preneur – juggling the challenges of raising her two beautiful boys, Jax and Jett, with being very hands-on in every aspect of running her fashion and lifestyle brands, By Caprice from her West London offices.In addition, she has become a well-regarded philanthropist, and patron of several charities, for which she has raised hundreds of thousands of pounds. She is also an inspiring speaker, who shares her vision, her passion and her drive for business success with diverse audiences around the world, ranging from university students to start-up entrepreneurs and more.
Whilst some may see her life as gilded, Caprice has had her fair share of hard times. Her success has been hard-won, and along the way, she has battled fertility issues, ill health, and public opinion, which allowed her to capitalise on her beauty, but mocked her ability to be a successful businesswoman. However, underneath the luminous beauty which made her famous, lies a core of steel. All the challenges she has faced, both personal and professional, were met with iron-clad determination to beat the odds, and her reinvention as a savvy businesswoman and a fabulous mother has been achieved through grit, determination, and a burning desire to be the very best Caprice that she can be.
Jessica Lemarie Pires
Jessica Lemarie Pires, is a mother, ex- model, entrepreneur and footballer’s wife of Robert Pires. She is the founder and CEO of ONIRA organics, but also a mother of three. Jessica is also board member of Chain of Hope, a charity that has been working towards ensuring that all children, wherever they are born have access to quality cardiac care in their own countries. Becoming a mother, changed her perspective to life and she became more connected with her health and being there for her children. She stopped modelling to raise her children and started to think about their future in the world. Jessica leads a busy lifestyle, and became determined to develop her own range of luxurious, natural and organic products that restored her hair’s conditions without surrendering to her environmental beliefs. She became a lot more concerned about the future; being there for her children and adopting a healthier way of living. There just simply wasn’t anything on the market that delivered in all areas. So, she resolved to develop her own range and this allowed women like her, the world over, to rediscover the true youth and beauty of their hair.
