Personal Life
Wieringa was outspoken in her support for Liberal party leader Justin Trudeau in the 2015 Canadian federal election, especially on social media. She was also criticized for comments on Twitter about 2016 American President-elect Donald Trump.
In 2014, she was one of the victims of the celebrity iCloud leaks when photos from her phone were leaked online. There were a range of photos ranging from consuming alcohol underage whilst in her school uniform, and compromising photos of her in a nightclub bathroom with an unknown white substance. Although not explicitly confirming the photos' authenticity, she took to Twitter with the message "like you haven't done anything wild in your lives. grow up xo".
After finishing her schooling in Montréal in 2012, she moved to Los Angeles to be closer to her parents who had moved there the year previous.
