Career and background
Duque moved to Medellín to pursue modelling opportunities and greater independence. In her first extensive SoHo interview, she described attending castings while studying and working. Her earlier education had taken her to Nashville, and she subsequently continued administration studies through a virtual university as travel made a fixed classroom routine difficult.Source: SoHo ↗
Her July 2026 cover feature presented her professional ambitions alongside her personal story. She explained that controlling what she publishes is a deliberate choice and that she wants her work to stand independently of her relationship. The interview and subsequent broadcaster coverage provide a more substantial account of her life than the earlier speculation around her appearances at football matches.Sources: SoHo ↗ · Caracol Televisión ↗
