Valentina was born and raised in Buenos Aires, Argentina, where she began her artistic journey. She has a younger sister named Luciana who has also supported her throughout her career. Outside of her professional life, Valu enjoys spending time with her two beloved dogs, Kyara and Felipe. She often shared moments with her former boyfriend Marcos De Pietri on Instagram, giving fans a glimpse into her personal life.
She has worked as a model in advertising campaigns for brands like Sweet Victorian and Tutta La Frutta. In addition, she received the Kids’ Choice Award for Favorite Villain not once, but twice—first in 2016 and then again in 2019.
