Amanda Cronin

Cronin was born in Britain and was scouted as a model as a teenager. She lived in the Mediterranean, Monaco, and the Swiss mountains before settling back in London; she has said she lived in Monaco for 12 years, where her interest in fashion developed.⁠[1][1][1][1]

In 2022 Cronin founded Amanda Caroline Skincare, a skincare brand focused on anti-ageing, and serves as its chief executive. She also runs The Amanda Caroline Secret Door Clinic, a beauty and wellness clinic in Belgravia, London, offering specialised treatments for the face, body, and more.⁠[1][2][1][2]

In 2025 Cronin became one of the six main cast members of The Real Housewives of London, the first original reality series from the streaming platform Hayu; a launch photocall for the show was held at the Corinthia Hotel in London on May 29, 2025. She had previously appeared on Channel 4’s The Millionairess and Me.⁠[1][1][1][1]

She has said the show is the biggest platform and franchise for business and profile, and that she hopes her story will inspire other women to “really just go for it.”⁠[1][1]

The Venture Room interviewed Cronin on Bond Street in London. She introduced her skincare brand, her clinic, and the reality show, and said that almost everyone had doubted her and that she overcame the doubt through her faith.⁠[3][3][3][3]

Asked about the secret to building a beauty business, she said it comes down to “hard work and determination and focus,” and that sometimes “you have to go through the fire to come out the other side” (at 02:08 in the video).⁠[3][3]

On building wealth, she said “it’s not a bad thing to be wealthy or to grow wealth,” and that wealth in the hands of good people can be used to do a lot of good (at 02:41 in the video).⁠[3]
