"I'm going to look at things differently. I may be young and wild, but I'm not. I'm engaged now. I have a baby, so it will make me think of life differently and do things right because now another one's looking up to me. I just can't be young and reckless, Aaron, no, more."

Avielle Hernandez is a competitive dancer, a profession she undertook as a six-year-old. Her mother, Jenkins-Hernandez, has shared several of Avielle's dance accomplishments on Instagram.

Moreover, Avielle is a runway model, a career path that will undoubtedly add to her creative resume. She was one of the select few models who walked on the 2022 Rhode Island Fashion Week runway.

The programme was presented by CashMereLux and happened on Sep. 23, 2022. It featured events like fashion week swaps and sips, panel discussions and runway shows. There were designer pop-up boutiques that allowed people to purchase pieces from the resident designers.

Avielle's appearance at Rhode Island Fashion Week marked her professional debut in runway modeling, which is amazing for a ten-year-old.


Avielle Janelle Hernandez is a big sister

Avielle Janelle Hernandez is the big sister to Giselle Guilmette, who was born in 2018.

Giselle Guilmette is the daughter of American boxer Dino Guillemette and socialite Shayanna Jenkins-Hernandez. Avielle and Giselle seem to share a close bond, as their mom regularly shares pictures and videos of them having fun, on Instagram.

Avielle seems to play the role of a doting big sister pretty nicely, and you shouldn't be surprised if Giselle grows up to share some of her big sister's hobbies. Gisele and her mom were present for Avielle's runway debut at Rhode Island Fashion Week. They will most likely be present for more significant events too.

Avielle and Giselle are raised solely by Shayanna Jenkins-Hernandez and are incredibly close to their mother. Shayanna is making significant efforts to ensure that they are raised the right way, and going by her regular social media updates, she seems to be doing a solid job.
