Lamers, a Gelderland native, was born in Driel in 1995. Lamers expressed her gender nonconformity early in life, beginning her gender transition early in her childhood. At the age of 10, Lamers was featured in a 2005 documentary by Charlotte Hoogakker titled "Van Lucas naar Luus" (From Lucas to Luus), which focused on her transition. Lamers underwent Sex reassignment surgery at the age of 18, two years before her appearance on the Dutch adaptation of "Top Model".
