She performed in beauty pageants across the US, and then spent her tween years modelling for brand such as Toys 'R' Us, Bergdorf Goodman and American Girl.
At the grand old age of nine, Isabella set up her own jewellery brand Glitzy Girl, which made her one of the youngest self-made millionaires in the US.
And now, as she reaches her 18th birthday, she has found success as a model, and through launching her own clothing line.
Isabella, who has recently purchased a new Lamborghini, told Truly: "What I love about being a millionaire is that I'm able to get up and travel anywhere I want in the world — and [the] friends I get to meet.

Isabella said that Gavin is always supporting her at her runway shows, and has even performed himself at her House of Barretti New York Fashion Week event.

She said that the pair "give each other strength where it counts."
However, she added that being in the relationship has been "overwhelming" a times, as both of their mothers are keen for them to stay together.
Isabella knows that her mum just wants what is best for her though, as she knows that her daughter has struggled in the past with being in toxic relationships.
She added that she is grateful to the support of her mother, as she has found it hard to make friends that aren't constantly jealous of her.
Isabella and Gavin plan to merge their strengths for more collaborations in the future, such as jumping back into the realms of reality TV.
