Who is Torrie Wilson?

Torrie Wilson was born on the 24th of July, 1975, in Boise, Idaho, USA. She is a professional wrestler and model, working with WWE. Torrie competed in cheerleading, dance, and track and field when she was younger, and had a growing interest in modelling. Encouraged by her mother, she went to an agency, but was told she would need to lose weight. Torrie developed anorexia, and then bulimia, which lasted from age fourteen to when she was twenty years old. Torrie then tried her hand at fitness, eating six meals a day and working out. She eventually won the Miss Galaxy competition in 1998, and spent time with the Extreme Fitness Team. That same year, she moved to Los Angeles to pursue acting. In 1999, she went to a WCW show, walked backstage, and was asked to walk to the ring with Scott Steiner. Her career in wrestling took off. In 2001 she moved to the WWF, and regularly teamed with Stacy Keibler. In May 2003, Torrie appeared on the cover of Playboy. In 2005, Torrie took a leave of absence from the WWE, but returned in November that year. In 2003, Torrie married Peter Gruner (screen name Billy Kidman), but filed for divorce in 2006.
