Early life
Biggs was born in South Africa and emigrated with her family to Perth, Western Australia when she was 8, where she attended St Mary's Anglican Girls' School.

This certified her with a place in the Miss Universe pageant, held in São Paulo, Brazil on 12 September 2011, where she finished in the top 10.
Career
After competing in Miss Universe, Biggs began working with the Seven Network in Melbourne where she was a reporter for sporting events broadcast on Seven Sport and daily travel show Coxy's Big Break until two years later, when she returned to Perth.
