The elder of two children (she has a younger brother named Max),1 they were born in the Sutton Coldfield area of Birmingham, West Midlands. Deeley attended Grove Vale Infant School in Great Barr, Birmingham, followed by Hillcrest High School in Walsall, where she played the clarinet in the Sandwell Youth Concert Band.
Modeling career
While attending Sutton Coldfield Grammar School for Girls, aged 14 Deeley entered a regional edition of a BBC competition for The Clothes Show, where she made it to the national finals. Spotted by an agent for Storm modeling agency, she was quickly signed as a model under her nickname of Cat to make it easier for clients to re-book her.2
Aged 16 and having gained nine A-grade GCSEs, Storm tried to persuade her to leave school. But cautious Deeley continued her A-Level studies at Bishop Vesey's Grammar School Sixth Form, where she gained four A-levels.2
Aged 18, Deeley became a full time fashion model, making her first television appearance in 1994 as a model on the British TV Series Kilroy.
