In April last year, when the celebrity Instagram gossip account @Deuxmoi posted a video compilation of American Horror Story actor Evan Peters cosying up to a woman during Lana Del Rey’s set at Coachella Weekend 1, the internet gasped.

Comments flooded in, ranging from, “Evan and I made eye contact on the street two months ago, so personally, this is very hard for me”, to, “She won. Kissing Evan during Lana?!?! 2014 me would pass away.”

Born in October 1996, Natalie Engel, 28, developed a passion for writing early on. She studied journalism, media studies and communication at San Diego State University and completed various internships in the media industry, taking on editorial and digital roles at magazines and e-commerce websites.

“My whole life I wanted to be a journalist,” she shared in a 2019 blog post for Create & Cultivate, where she worked as an editorial assistant after graduation. “For as long as I can remember, I felt that writing was far more than an academic endeavour. Rather, it was something I was passionate about and wanted to pursue professionally.”

She later worked as a social media manager for various companies and is now a digital strategist for supermodel-turned-entrepreneur Karlie Kloss’ non-profit organisation, Klossy.

This is not her first relationship with a celebrity
