Breaking Amish’s Kate Stoltz, 23, continues with her racy lingerie modeling career

Racy lady: The New York-based 23-year-old landed her first major modeling job with men’s magazine Maxim

Making headlines: Miss Stotlz also appeared in the New York Post, when the newspaper covered the 100th anniversary of the brassiere

‘After
school I’d take care of the calves, I make dinner for the family and
spend about six hours at a time just out in the fields raking hay.’

But in 2012 the Miss Stoltz turned her back on her ultra-strict upbringing to appear in TLC’s reality TV show Breaking Amish.

The series followed a group of Amish and Mennonite youngsters as they had their first taste of modern life in New York. After appearing on the small screen, Miss Stoltz’s life changed overnight.

Her good looks caught the attention of Major Model Management and she was immediately signed up by the European and U.S.-based agency.

Now the 5ft 8in beauty sets pulses racing with saucy underwear shoots.

Stripping off her inhibitions: Growing up Miss Stoltz was even forbidden from having her picture taken fully-dressed because of traditional Amish beliefs

Talking about her move from rural Pennsylvania to Manhattan, Miss Stoltz recalled: ‘I actually found it really hard to get used to New York because it’s so loud and there’s so many people.’

And the bishop’s daughter had to deal with the disapproval of the community she left behind.

‘I
mean my dad’s a minister in the church, he of course does not approve
but then again he also knows that he can’t control my life.’

Lingerie modeling wasn’t the first time Miss Stoltz had broken the rules of her strict faith.

During Breaking Amish, she was forced to admit she had been arrested for a DUI before the show.

Blogs
also revealed she had previously submitted images to modeling agencies -
which is at odds with the Amish stance against photographs, believing
they represent ‘vanity’ which they deem a sin.

Online
records show that Kate posted a photograph on exploretalent.com to
enter a Best Smile contest in 2010 – years before she claimed she gave
up her Amish life to move to the city.

Despite the radical change in her lifestyle, Miss Stoltz is still very close to her family.

She said: ‘Even though they don’t approve of my lifestyle they’re always telling me to come back home.

Leaving the past behind: Miss Stoltz says she has no desire to return to the Amish way of life

‘I couldn’t ask for better parents or better brothers and sisters.’

With
no desire to return to the Amish way of life Miss Stoltz is making plans for
her future and will appear in a second TLC spinoff series called Return to Amish this June.

She said: ‘I actually have really big hopes and plans for the future.

‘I
want to be on a billboard in the middle of Times Square and I want to
be the first person in my family to ever have a college education.

‘Now
that I’m outside of that I realise the world is so large and the only
thing that matters is who you are and whether or not you’re happy.’
