Irina Lazareanu (born 8 June 1982) is a Canadian model. Romanian-born Lazareanu got her ?big break? through her acquaintance with supermodel Kate Moss. At age 5 Lazareanu emigrated to Canada from Romania, settling into the Montreal suburb of Saint-Hubert, Quebec with her Romanian parents.[2] At the age of 13 she moved to London to study ballet until she was derailed by a broken knee. She met Pete Doherty at the age of 15 and became something of a muse for the musician, whom she later dated briefly and was engaged to.[3]
