Alex Mariah Peter

Alex Mariah Peter, a 27-year-old transgender woman and winner of 'Germany's Next Topmodel' in 2021, has openly discussed her challenging childhood experiences. From a young age, she felt different from her peers, particularly during childhood games where she preferred to take on traditionally female roles. Growing up, she often felt isolated due to her family circumstances, as her mother and stepfather were frequently busy with work, leaving her without playmates. Peter has expressed a longing for familial connection and has fond memories of her interactions with the show's host, Heidi Klum, whom she regards as a supportive figure.
