Caroline has made a name for herself in recent years as a fashion blogger, under the name Caro Daur - and has even been given the seal of approval from Victoria Beckham herself already.
Victoria has longtime been a fan of Caroline's and in 2018 her Facebook page reposted a snap of Caroline wearing one of her designs.
Caroline has also attended several of Victoria's fashion shows.
She is proud of the fact she is 'self-made', previously stating: 'I don't have an agent, manager or assistant. I do everything by myself.'
The social media star first achieved prominence in the 2010s when she launched her blog Carodaur.com, and now boasts 4.6 million Instagram followers, with a further 1.1 million on TikTok.
Caroline - who studied business in school - worked for a headhunting company while building up her brand but is now a full-time influencer and model with a net worth of €4 million.
By 2016 she had become the first German blogger to achieve more than one million Instagram followers and went on to land the cover of Japanese Vogue as well as walking for Dolce & Gabbana during Milan Fashion Week.
Caroline also started branching out into other forms of media, appearing as a guest judge on Germany 's Next Top Model, and launching her own series of online workout videos.

In 2019, Caroline - who is the daughter of lawyer Harald and manager Monika - was mentioned in Forbes 30 Under 30 list.
The blogger previously revealed that she only sleeps four to five hours a night because her mind 'is always somewhere', and this year revealed she'd been diagnosed with ADHD.
Detailing her diagnosis, she said: 'It didn't surprise me – and it didn't surprise anyone around me either. The diagnosis came late, but it explained so much.
'My brain is like an internet browser with 47 tabs open. Sport is the only way I can calm it down. This morning I worked out at 7am, even after a short night. Without it, I just don't function.'
Of her ability to make it as a blogger, she mused: 'My success came from consistency and treating my work seriously. I didn't just smile in front of the camera – I planned, negotiated, edited, and built a business.'
Caroline is also set to make her TV debut, having landed a role in German Netflix series She Said Yes which filmed last year.
As a result of her newfound fame, Caroline has found himself moving in several high-profile circles.
She is believed to be currently single after an on/off relationship with podcaster Tommi Schmitt.
The pair were last linked together in February, with friends of the couple claiming they split because of their 'different views on a shared future.'
She is followed on Instagram by the Beckham clan, as well as Romeo's ex Kim and Brooklyn's wife Nicola Peltz.
Victoria Beckham has longtime been a fan of Caroline's and in 2018 her Facebook page reposted a snap of Caroline wearing one of her designs.
Caroline has also attended several of Victoria's fashion shows.
After Romeo was spotted with the stunning influencer in Paris on Saturday night, it was claimed the pair had bonded over their love of tennis, with both attending the Men's Singles Semi Final at the French Open on Friday.
The model jumped into a car with Caroline and other pals after enjoying an evening together, keeping the fun going as they went on to party Julia nightclub in the French capital into the early hours.
A source told MailOnline of the outing: 'Romeo was in town for work meetings, Roland Garros and also caught up with friends.
'He had dinner with his three friends one of whom is great friends with Caro so she joined the group. It was a casual dinner in a group setting throughout the evening.'
Despite the casual group outing, the pair appeared keen to not be snapped together as they left the venue separately before climbing into the same car alongside mutual friend, French Vogue Culture Director Dan Sablon.
Dan recently styled Romeo for his French Vogue fashion story.
Romeo cut a casual figure for the outing, opting for a black sweater teamed with dark tracksuit bottoms and blue trainers.
Meanwhile, Caroline dressed to impress in a strapless little black dress teamed with knee-high black boots.
Friends say that things remain 'amicable' between the Romeo and ex Kim, and that their parting is 'nothing to do' with Kim being blamed by Nicola Peltz for being the catalyst for the feud that has ripped the Beckham family apart.
One said: 'Romeo and Kim are both young and they had a lovely time together but at that age things don't always last forever and they decided to split up.
'They have been friendly since and have even been at the same venues. It's a huge shame, particularly as David and Victoria really adored her and thought she made Romeo happy but it wasn't to be.
'It happened a couple of weeks ago and relations have remained friendly between them.
'David and Victoria would hate for the view to be that they split because of Nicola and Brooklyn because that simply isn't the case.
'The fact is that Kim has got a really busy career as a DJ and Romeo has a busy work life too, there is lots of travelling for both of them at having a relationship at this time isn't all that conducive to their lives.'
Kim attended several of David's birthday celebrations. She was present at the former England captain's party at the end of March at Cipriani restaurant in Miami.
She also joined David, Victoria, and Romeo's younger brother Cruz, his girlfriend Jackie Apostel and sister Harper on their trip to France where they visited a vineyard in Bordeaux and a restaurant in Paris.
Kim was also at the big dinner at Core restaurant in Notting Hill, West London.
She has been at the centre of the rift after Nicola, 30, claimed that she felt uncomfortable around her, with sources close to the US heiress saying that Kim had dated Brooklyn when they were teenagers.
That was the reason the couple gave for not attending any of David's celebrations.
However, in fact she enjoyed a romance with his close friend Rocco Ritchie, the son of Guy Ritchie and Madonna.
Kim, is the well-heeled granddaughter of renowned post-war sculptor and painter William Turnbull, while her father Alex Turnbull and uncle Johnny were part of the post-punk band 23 Skidoo, formed in 1979.
Kim and Brooklyn were undeniably close for a brief period – as photographs of them together at the time show - but suggestions that they were ever an item are wide of the mark, according to well-informed sources.
That Kim has now been 'thrown to the wolves' as the reason behind the family row is 'deeply upsetting' to Brooklyn's parents and brothers.
In fact, younger brother Cruz, 20, personally shut down the gossip recently when he responded to an Instagram post showing a picture of Romeo and Kim together.
In a now-deleted message, one user commented: 'It's appropriate to date your brother's ex too? Cool.'

The European MMA promotion selling out 60,000-seater stadiums before the UFC
Who is watching MMA if it's not the UFC? In mainland Europe, it seems they all are. Dana White 's combat goliath is synonymous with the sport. To the ever-lucrative casual audience, the UFC equals MMA. Such brand dominance can often spell doomsday for competitors, unable to get a foothold in the wider perception. However, one promotion is proving you don't need to be the UFC to blaze the trail in the industry. When Pavol Neruda and Ondrej Novotny founded Oktagon MMA in 2016, they dared to dream big. After all, they had to. Lofty ambitions were a requirement to do what they were seeking to achieve - cultivate mainstream fandom for a sport in a part of the world that previously didn't exist. Starting out in Czechia and Slovakia, the immediate priority was break new ground in the region. Little did they know Oktagon would take MMA, as a global entity, to brand new heights. Fast forward eight years and Oktagon have taken the consumption of MMA to the next level, one that the UFC have yet to touch. They have mastered the art of the stadium show. 'We changed the landscape totally in this area,' Neruda told The Independent. 'How people consume the sport and the perception of the sport. It was an underground sport. Nobody liked it and we were so desperate to change this to how people look at it.' In that pursuit, they have been resoundingly successful, and the events of 12 October 2024 were indicative of that feat. That night, the promotion smashed the UFC's all-time attendance record for a single event. A staggering 60,000 fans packed into Deutsche Bank Arena, the home of Bundesliga side Eintracht Frankfurt, to experience an almighty fighting spectacle. Neruda could hardly believe it, even as the showpiece got underway. 'I rented this colosseum for a few days, how crazy is that? I was waiting for the moment it would hit me, to digest the whole experience. You pray for this moment.' Angst may have consumed him on fight night, but when the dust settled, Oktagon had its place in history. While the UFC may lean on its admittedly dwindling starpower to draw capacity crowds, Oktagon go a different way to get fans of this sheer number through the door. 'It's a lot of entertainment, not just sport,' Neruda asserts, revealing there is far more to Oktagon's events than what goes on inside the cage. You only need to look back to Frankfurt to see a glimpse of this, with British singer-songwriter turned DJ John Newman - of ' Love Me Again' fame - taking to the decks for a wild half-time show. But when it comes to the fighters, Neruda is also acutely aware of the importance of storyline and cinema to attract an audience beyond the hardcore combat fans. There is a WWE-esque 'sports entertainment' aspect to the Oktagon's product, something that gets people in their seats from the first fight. 'That's the difference,' he says. 'Our events are full from the fight number one because people are involved in the stories of the fighters. They want to see them and they have a connection with everyone on the card.' Many of Oktagon's top stars are from mainland Europe. Czech sensation Karlos Vemola has captivated the attention of his homeland and beyond, with his 2019 clash with Attila Vegh - sold domestically as the 'Match of the Century' - and his 2023 rematch with Patrick Kincl breaking viewing records for the promotion. The likes of explosive Belgian featherweight champion Losene Keita and German middleweight titan Kerim Engizek, whose victorious debut ended in a 99-second knockout, are among other major continental draws for the company. The promotion has a penchant for virality, with Frederic Vosgrone, nicknamed 'The German Neanderthal', taking Oktagon by storm after just one fight. Looking like a jacked-up Paddy Pimblett, his chaotic, unforgiving fight style has made him a must-watch attraction, with a clip of the undefeated BJJ black belt getting dragged across the cage while refusing let to go over his opponent's leg doing the rounds on social media. Vosgrone went on to put him to sleep. However, Oktagon haven't been afraid to stray to the British Isles to locate some of its largest personalities. Shem Rock, fighting out of Dublin, is one of the promotion's fast-rising stars - a man with a backstory like no professional fighter on the planet. The Liverpudlian spent seven years on the run in Asia after being wrongly accused of burglary with violence and assault in 2014, fleeing the country at the age of 20 as he feared he'd be jailed for a crime he didn't commit. It was while a fugitive that he started training MMA and discovered his talent. He was eventually arrested upon his move to Ireland, with his burgeoning combat career leading the authorities to him. But in 2022, having spent six months on remand in custody, he was found not guilty by a court and acquitted. Now without a criminal shadow casting over him, Rock has fast established himself as a leading draw both at Oktagon and potentially beyond - with his contract up with the promotion at the end of the summer. 'The fighters from UK and Ireland, they are crazy,' Neruda says, who will be savouring Rock for as long as he's got him. His brash showmanship is what has won him over with the fans, wearing a 'Dana' mouthguard to the cage at Oktagon 71 as he prepares to become one of the hottest free agents on the market. 'Everyone wants to be entertained, right?' It's this entertainment factor that has proved pivotal in Oktagon's ability to sell out these 'colosseums', as Neruda puts it. The promotion is among the forerunners in the western world to hone the stadium extravaganza in MMA, following the path first trod by now-defunct Japanese giant Pride, just over two decades on. They go roofless once again this weekend at Slavia Prague's Fortuna Arena, as Vemola and Vegh clash once more in their crucial trilogy bout. It'll be their third football stadium show in the space of 12 months, something which has fast become their niche. But despite the prospect of being lauded as the company that changed the MMA game should other promotions - namely the UFC - begin to follow suit, Neruda is a businessman at the end of the day. And as such, he wouldn't mind it if Oktagon's niche stays just that, even if such a world is unrealistic. 'I would be happy if it would be just us (doing stadium shows) because it's comfortable,' he admits. 'I'm just being honest. It's nice to be able to grow and fulfil your dreams and whatever you wish to create. I'm always trying to stay two or three steps ahead of others - not sleep and wait until someone else who was maybe inspired by your actions to become better than you. 'I wish for as long as possible to be number one, but I know there will be new promotions somewhere hungry to achieve something big, watching what we are doing and dreaming to do it in their own way, just better. It's kind of good because it makes us push to be better and brings the sport better conditions for fighters, for fans, for everyone. It's exciting, but makes tension. You cannot fall asleep.' As things stand, Oktagon doesn't look close to dropping off. The company has endured a mesmeric rise in the past couple of years especially, with Neruda valuing it at a staggering €250m after closing a broadcasting deal with RTL+, the leading mainstream broadcaster in Germany. Next year will be 10 years since Oktagon's inception. The plan is to keep going bigger, with aspirations of hosting mega-events at Champions League final-calibre venues now no longer a pipedream. 'I can imagine doing it at the Allianz Arena,' Neruda says. 'It's possible, with proper fights and promo, it's not that much of a crazy idea.' In these parts, MMA is underground no more.

'Seriously ill' rock legend rushed to hospital as band make heartbreaking show announcement
A 'seriously ill' rock legend has been rushed to hospital with the band making a heartbreaking show announcement on Wednesday. James Prime, 64, co-founder and keyboardist of Deacon Blue, is currently undergoing care. The band, made up of vocalists Ricky Ross and Lorraine McIntosh, James, drummer Dougie Vipond, guitarist Gregor Philp and bassist Lewis Gordon, confirmed that their shows would still go ahead. It is unclear why James is in hospital, although he is currently in intensive care. In a statement shared to Instagram, they explained: 'Dear friends, we wanted to share some news with you about our brother, Jim.' From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. The band continued: 'Unfortunately, he is seriously ill and undergoing care in hospital. We would like you to join us in wishing him well and to share our love with him. 'We spoke to Jim yesterday about Deacon Blue's plans for the rest of the year, and he encouraged us to continue with love in our hearts and with his full blessing that the shows go ahead, even if it means replacing the irreplaceable James Miller Prime for the time being. 'Together with Jim's family, we want to thank all the nurses, doctors and ICU staff for their ongoing care, professionalism and compassion. 'With love, Ricky, Lorraine, Dougie, Gregor, Lewis and Tom.' Deacon Blue are set to head of on their tour, The Great Western Road Trip, in September. They are set to play Liverpool Arena on September 19 before rounding off the 15-date run in Glasgow on October 11. The tour follows their latest album of the same name which was released back in March alongside a small run of theatre dates. It marks 40 years since the band first formed and follows their 2021 album, Riding on the Tide of Love. Ricky said in a press release ahead of tour: 'I love the idea that a circus coming to town is a temporary existence, a little bit of magic suddenly appears in the middle of a town or a village and then it goes away. 'It's very similar to what you do live. The live experience is so ephemeral, at the end of a show people lose all their inhibitions, and then it's over. You have to be there. That's what's magical about it. 'There will be two different shows, we're curating a show that changes and evolves, pulling out little surprises every now and again. 'The theatres are more intimate and give us a chance to bring out one or two things that we wouldn't do in the arenas. They give us a chance to play songs from the new album and songs from other albums that we have never played before.
