She was born on January 24, 1977, in the Swiss town of Sorengo. Her mother, Ineke, is originally from the Netherlands, and her father, a Swiss citizen, worked as a painter and a hotel manager until his passing in 2001 due to a heart attack.

During her childhood, Yvonne's family moved to one of the suburbs of Bern in 1983. Following her parents' divorce, Yvonne and her mother relocated to Zollikofen, where she struggled to cope with the separation. In 1993, they moved once again, this time to Bologna. Yvonne had a passionate dream of becoming a translator, so she diligently studied languages such as Italian, French, German, and Dutch at a local college.

After another move to Milan, Yvonne decided to pursue a modeling career at the age of seventeen and sought the services of renowned agent Riccardo Gay. She quickly gained recognition, working with well-known brands such as Armani, Rocco Barocco, La Perla, Colmar, Fuerte Ventura, Lovable, and Swish.

Simultaneously, she honed her creative skills and studied choreography under the guidance of experienced choreographer Susanna Beltrami. In 1998, Yvonne made her TV debut in the series "La Forza dell'Amore" after being offered a role by Italian director Vincenzo Verdecchi.

In the late 1990s, Yvonne also worked in German television. In 1998, she co-hosted the Goldene Kamera awards with famous presenter Thomas Gottschalk. A year later, she headlined the "Michael Jackson & Friends" show in Munich and appeared on German TV multiple times. In the early 2000s, Yvonne made her first appearance on Italian television and was later awarded the Italian TV Oscar in the "Opening of the Year" category.
