Although Barrett created a successful career for herself, modeling left her feeling intellectually and creatively unfulfilled. “At first, modeling was OK, but I got sick of it,” she said in a 2007 interview with theLos Angeles Times.

In the early ‘90s, Barrett briefly stepped away from modeling and moved to Germany to learn the language for six months. She eventually settled down in Paris.

Barrett’s journey to obtaining her pilot’s license was documented on the reality series, and the Australian model quickly became a fan favorite among viewers. Her stint onThe Real World: Londonreignited her love for performing, so she decided to press pause on flying and pursue acting full-time.
