From magazine covers to business mogul: the multifaceted career of Caprice Bourret
In short: Born in California and later becoming a fixture of British media, Caprice Bourret has navigated a diverse career spanning modeling, reality television, music, and entrepreneurship. Beyond her high-profile appearances on hundreds of magazine covers, she successfully transitioned into business, launching her own lingerie and homeware lines while producing independent films.
Born in 1971 in Hacienda Heights, California, Caprice Bourret began her professional journey in the modeling industry, eventually gracing the covers of over 250 magazines, including Vogue, GQ, and Sports Illustrated. Her early career also saw forays into music, with two singles reaching number 24 on the UK charts in 1999 and 2001. By the turn of the millennium, she had pivoted toward television, appearing in various reality shows, soap operas, and documentaries, including a ten-day observation of her life in the 2000 Channel 4 production, Being Caprice.
A significant shift in her career occurred in 2000 when she entered a licensing agreement with the British department store Debenhams. Six years later, she reclaimed the license to establish By Caprice Products, an independent venture through which she designs and markets lingerie, swimwear, and sleepwear. This entrepreneurial spirit expanded in 2010 with the launch of Bedding By Caprice and continued into 2023 with the founding of her production company, JJLove Productions Ltd. These ventures reflect a broader transition from being the face of a brand to controlling the production and creative direction of her own commercial projects.
In recent years, Bourret has focused heavily on film production and acting, particularly in the Christmas movie genre. Since 2019, she has starred in and produced several films, including A Toast to Love and A Scottish Christmas Secret. Her personal life has also been a subject of public interest, marked by high-profile relationships and her 2019 marriage to financier Ty Comfort. Today, she resides in London, balancing her roles as a producer, actress, and businesswoman while raising her two sons.
