Physique
At 6 feet (1.8 m) tall, Strecker is frequently featured in the press and various men's magazines, primarily due to her incredibly long 37 inches (94 cm) legs — known as the Streckers. "Small girls may have the advantage when young, but tall ones usually win in the end," says Strecker. After implying in a radio interview that she was still Guy Ritchie's girlfriend when he started seeing Madonna, Strecker declared that Madonna "is frightened of me.

Strecker is of Danish (mother) and Argentinian (father) descent.[4][5][6]
Her ex-boyfriends include Alastair Patterson (IT Boy & Entrepreneur) Guy Ritchie, and Robbie Williams.[7][8] Her break-up with Guy Ritchie is the inspiration for the Robbie Williams/Pet Shop Boys song "She's Madonna."[9]
