Photos: Popular Model And Actress Quits Career To Become A Nun

As a famous model, Olalla Oliveros took part in glamorous photo shoots, starred in movies, and saw her face on billboards across Spain.

But she has swapped designer outfits for blue sackcloth and a veil after joining the Order of Saint Michael and becoming a nun. She made the decision after an 'earthquake' moment during a visit to The Sanctuary of Our Lady of Fátima in Portugal. She is reluctant to talk about the decision, but told the National Catholic Register: "The Lord is never wrong. He asked if I will follow him, and I could not refuse."

According to the site, Oliveros found the experience strange initially, but later could not shake the image of herself dressed as a nun out of her head. That vision prompted the 36-year-old to quit her job and become a nun instead, changing her name to Sister Olalla del Sí de María.

Though Oliveros joined the order four years ago, she has only recently spoken about the decision.
She is not the first model to swap a busy life on the catwalk for a secluded existence in cloisters.
