The 22-year-old is not only an aspiring model but a talented actress and singer too, and regularly shares updates on her current projects on social media.

Making a mark during fashion week will no doubt have lifted Ella's spirits too, following a difficult year. Just two years after the death of her beloved mother, Kelly Preston, Ella and her family were devastated after Olivia Newton-John passed away in August, who was close to the entire family.
