Meet the long-lost KFC chicken heiress and Instagram star with her own lingerie label
Meet Kaila Methven, the 27-year-old heiress to a KFC chicken fortune.
Methven would not confirm to Business Insider what she inherited from her family's success but says that she spent her early years in Beverly Hills before moving in with her father in France.
But her wealth came with some challenges. "As an 'heiress' I feel like any other person, just with more financial responsibilities and more stress. As with most people, the more money you have, the more problems you attain," she told Business Insider.
She says she has found her own success by running two lingerie brands: Madame Methven and LBKM.
Madame Methven is a high-end lingerie label with bras that can cost anywhere between $273 and $853. Bodysuits can cost up to $3,000. It also has its own atelier that offers bespoke designs for customers.
One corset is being sold on the website for an eye-watering $7,000.
The brand has been worn by the Kardashians and Demi Lovato.
Then there's LBKM, a more affordable brand, which Methven says is designed to be her "every woman" line.
Methven has almost 500,000 followers on Instagram and uses social media to flaunt her latest designs.
She also uses it to document her glamorous lifestyle.
She would not confirm to Business Insider how successful the brand has been, but said she is expecting to reach between $6 million and $10 million in profit in the next five years.
"I see an exceptionally bright future for myself, my team, and my brand. Madame Methven is here to take lingerie to the next level," she said.
