Early Life
Vanessa Marie Harper was born in Dallas, Texas on December 17, 1989. She has one elder sister named Michelle Harper who was born in 1985. Growing up on a farm in Texas, she learned to love the way of the country at a young age. She keeps those roots close to her heart. When Vanessa was ten her parents divorced and she stayed in Dallas with her father, George Harper while Michelle moved to Austin with her mother, Annabelle James. Her father was a simple farmer, but always kept food on the table for her and animals out back to keep her busy. Vanessa maintained top grades throughout school, graduating at the top of her class with a 4.0 GPA and an invitation to Harvard. However, Vanessa declined and decided that she would stay on the farm and help her "pa". Michelle eventually moved back with George and Vanessa once she turned eighteen when Nessa was only fourteen. Watching wrestling, Michelle eventually got into the sport and then trained Vanessa.
