Biography
Nathalie Kelley was a Peruvian-Australian actress who was best known for her recurring roles on the TV shows "unREAL" (Lifetime, 2015- ), "The Vampire Diaries" (The CW, 2009-2017), and "Dynasty" (The CW, 2017- ). Born in Peru, Kelley immigrated with her family to Sydney when she was two years old. She would spend the remainder of her formative years in the cosmopolitan Australian city. A curious young girl, Kelley became interested in acting at a very young age and convinced her parents to send her to acting school. She soon began taking classes and before long had honed the basics of the acting craft. Ever one for a new adventure, Kelley moved to Brazil as a teenager, where she embarked on a career in modeling. She soon returned to Sydney, however, to study political science at the University of New South Wales. Kelley had every intention on finishing her studies and earning a bachelor's degree, but, as luck would have it, fate soon intervened when she was offered a part on a CW pilot called "Mermaid." The series was never picked up, but the experience brought Kelley to Hollywood, where she intended on pursuing her acting dream in earnest. She soon landed her very first film role in "The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift" (2006), and quickly followed that up with roles in "Loaded" (2008), "Take Me Home Tonight" (2011), and "The Depraved" (2011). In 2011 Kelley nabbed her first recurring TV part on the series "Body of Proof" (ABC, 2011-2013), in which she appeared in 10 episodes. Then in 2015 Kelley nabbed her breakout role on the acclaimed Lifetime series "unREAL," playing Sybil in 10 episodes of the series. She followed up her work on "unREAL" with recurring parts on "The Vampire Diaries" and a reboot of the popular 80s soap opera "Dynasty." "Dynasty" premiered on The CW in October of 2017.
