“Even though I have spent most of my life in the city, I have a deep passion for show jumping. My family doesn’t know where this passion came from, but I’ve been riding since I was 3 and can’t imagine my life without it,” she told Australian Gold Coast Magazine.

In addition to modeling, Sienna was also a graduate of the University of Sydney in psychology and English literature. She recently said she plans to move to the UK to be closer to her family and invest in her career.
