In 2014, Spanish model and actress Olalla Oliveros stunned the fashion world by giving up her successful career and entering religious life — she became a nun.

While Oliveros made the actual decision four years before that, she waited to discuss her decision publicly and said it was a visit to the shrine of Our Lady of Fatima in Portugal that prompted her vocation. In an interview with the newspaper El Diario de Carlos Paz, the model explained she felt an increasing dissatisfaction with her life and experienced “an internal earthquake” when she was in Fatima. “God gave me a role, and chose me, and I couldn’t say no to him,” she said.
 
She joined the semi-cloistered Order of St Michael. Great choice.
