Vanessa has many half-siblings from various relationships of her parents, including David Toscan du Plantier, Troy Garity, Natalie Vadim, Ariane Toscan Du Plantier, Vania, and Christian Vadim.
Growing up, Vanessa didn’t have a perfect childhood, as her parents were actors who were always away for work. This led to a troubled youth, and she was involved in drug addiction and several police arrests. Her parents had been married for eight years before divorcing in 1973.
