On her way to compete at the NPC Nationals last year, Capucine Leconte realised she had forgotten a crucial hair accessory and turned her car around to go back home.
Having spent nearly a decade away from the stage, 2017 had been the year she had rediscovered her passion for competition. She'd qualified for the Nationals by winning her class at the New York State Grand Prix, several cuts above the competition found at such regional shows, and her appearance there jogged memories on the forums. I found her a year ago but had kind of forgotten about her since then, wrote one enthused poster. Didn't know she was going to compete. WOW! She's amazing!
An exotic beauty indeed. And ripped to shreds (as they say) - which, apparently, is never the problem in Figure that it seems to have become in Physique! (Just saying).
So anyway, back to that day of the Nationals...
Capucine arrives home to get her hair accessory. And I believe she found it, but she also found her fiance (of four years, now ex-fiance) in bed with another woman!
The shock would have floored most (the stuff about men who cheat on women who most of us would give up an organ - but not that organ - to be with is not our concern today), but Capucine, back in her car, decided to head for the show anyway.
By this time though, she was somewhat behind schedule, and arriving at the venue late she was initially told she had been disqualified. However, she was given the chance to go on when a judge (presumably an important one) noted how incredible she looked.
She did, indeed, look absolutely incredible, but there must have been so much going on in her head as strutted onto the stage. Happily, she managed to keep her composure and all the judges agreed - class winner. Capucine Leconte was now an IFBB pro.
She made her pro debut in Chicago recently (looked incredible, didn't place!), and these days there's a fella who regularly turns up in the background of some of her Instagram posts - hardly surprising she didn't stay single for very long.
She'll be at the Tampa Pro at the start of next month. I'm looking to make a strong comeback after I learned a lot from this last [Chicago] show, she says. Had a lot of great advice from others, but everyone is asking me about my abs!
