With the poise of a queen and the glow of a woman twice-blessed, Jasmine Tookes opened the 2025 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show on October 15 with undeniable grace, proudly showcasing her baby bump as she strutted down the Brooklyn runway. The 34-year-old supermodel, pregnant with her second child with husband Juan David Borrero, was nothing short of ethereal in a netted one-piece paired with gilded angel wings.
Culture is shifting.

“I’m a big planner,” Tookes revealed in Vogue, discussing how baby number two came as a (joyful) surprise. She added:
Having another baby was something that my husband and I always wanted to do. It was just a matter of timing and when it made sense—when we both weren’t traveling as much.
The couple, who already share daughter Mia Victoria (born February 23, 2023), first shared the news of baby no. 2 back in July with an elegant white-themed maternity shoot on Instagram. At the fashion show, Tookes’ makeup was understated, her lips kept nude, her eyes soft, and her signature brunette locks flowed freely with a middle part, catching the wind as cameras flashed. Her glowing skin? That was thanks to her own Brunel Golden Hour Glow Body Oil, applied by makeup legend Pat McGrath (per PEOPLE).
Tookes, who first graced the Victoria’s Secret runway in 2012, confessed to Us Weekly in 2022 what the brand meant to her:
We had the best time ever traveling all over the world… What I love most… is the relationships that I’ve made. These girls are some of my best friends and even were in my wedding as bridesmaids! I really appreciate the career that Victoria’s Secret was able to give me.
When asked about her fashion muse, she didn’t hesitate: “I love Rosie Huntington-Whitely. Her sense of style is just so clean, timeless and chic. And I feel like I sort of have a similar style so I always look to her for fashion inspiration.”
Jasmine Tookes Net Worth, Nationality, and Sources of Income Explained
Born in Huntington Beach, California, Jasmine Tookes is not only a high fashion powerhouse but a self-made millionaire. As of 2025, her net worth stands tall at $10 million, accumulated through modeling contracts, brand endorsements, and entrepreneurial ventures like her beauty line Brunel.
Here’s a quick snapshot of Tookes’ journey to fortune:
Jasmine Tookes is American. Her background is a beautiful mix; her mother is both African American and Caucasian, and her father is African American.
Her path began early. Tookes was discovered at one of her mother’s styling appointments, where fate took a fashionable turn (per NY Mag). From gymnastics and volleyball to glossy magazine covers and global campaigns, her evolution has been consistent and determined.
She credits authenticity as her secret to success on social media. “People are on my page to see certain things and just to keep it really real and refreshing and exciting,” she told Us Weekly.
Who Is Juan David Borrero? Everything About Jasmine Tookes’ Husband And Their Kids
Behind every luminous queen is often a quietly powerful king. In JasmineTookes’ case, it’s Juan David Borrero, a Stanford grad and Director of International Markets at Snap Inc (via Vogue). The couple began dating in 2016 and got engaged in 2020. On September 4, 2021, they tied the knot in a jaw-dropping ceremony at the historic Iglesia y Convento de San Francisco in Quito, Ecuador.
Their love story has since expanded into parenthood:
Despite her demanding career, Tookes keeps a strict fitness regimen, mixing Pilates with weight training. “I really like to build muscle, build my butt size a little bit and just really form nice curves and shape,” she told Us Weekly, highlighting a disciplined yet balanced lifestyle.
I love doing Pilates and I typically for lunch I love doing like a grilled chicken with rice and veggies and a fresh mixed green salad for breakfast.
Her diet ranges from detox smoothies (Miranda Kerr-approved) to juicy steaks and tacos.
I never really watch what I eat too much because I do like to enjoy myself and enjoy life and never restrict myself from too many things.
Here’s a glimpse of her wellness routine:
Tookes’ return to the Victoria’s Secret runway and with a baby bump, no less, isn’t just a fashion moment; it’s a cultural reset. She shattered outdated standards and reminded everyone watching that motherhood and modeling aren’t mutually exclusive.
With an impressive net worth, an influential husband, a thriving brand, and another baby on the way, Tookes is undeniably cementing her legacy. Anyway, can we expect Jasmine to launch her own full-blown maternity wear brand next? Could baby number two mark a turning point in her business empire?
