Marine El Himer is a French reality television star, model, and influential social media personality, born in July 1992 (some sources suggest 1993) in Bordeaux, France—of Moroccan-Egyptian descent. She first gained public attention when she and her twin sister Océane entered the popular French dating show Les Princes et les Princesses de l’Amour, later appearing on Les Marseillais vs. le Reste du Monde. With a strong following across social media platforms—over 1.5 million followers on Instagram—Marine excels at sharing glimpses of her fashion-forward lifestyle and personal evolution.
In a deeply meaningful and public declaration, she revealed her conversion to Islam in November 2022, calling it “a choice of soul, heart and reason” and marking one of the happiest days of her life as she embraced her newfound spiritual identity. That same period saw her proudly obtain Moroccan citizenship—celebrating her roots and asserting her identity as Franco-Moroccan. Based in Dubai, Marine continues to thrive as an ambassador for Fashion Nova and is represented by Bareface Model Agency, in addition to running her own fashion platform, @maryam.online.couture. Her journey—from reality TV stardom to cultural and spiritual affirmations—illustrates a dynamic blend of personal transformation, fashion influence, and identity.
