Biography

Dietz grew up in Saltsjöbaden.[1] In 2017, she gave birth to a son with Jacob Liebermann.[2] The couple got married and were ordained by the Christian Democratic leader and friend Ebba Busch, although the marriage was not legally valid.[3] They separated in late 2019.[4]

Dietz was one of the celebrity dancers on Let's Dance 2018 broadcast on TV4; her dance partner was Alexander Svanberg.[8] In 2019, she became the television presenter of the dating show Hemliga beundrare which is broadcast on TV3.[9]

In 2018, Margaux Dietz started the YouTube channel ”Partitempen” where she interviewed all the Swedish party leaders ahead of that year's election.[10] She wanted to get younger people more engaged with the politics.[11] The idea for the videos occurred to her when meeting leader Ebba Busch Thor who told her about the difficulties of reaching over 400,000 young voters that would be able to vote for the first time in 2018.[12]

Partitempen operated differently to normal TV interviews for the party leaders.[13] In the interviews all the party leaders could voice their opinions about current events.[13]

In October 2022, Dietz filmed and published a video of herself and her son encountering a visibly injured and passed out man outside her apartment, attempting to portray the situation as comical. Several brands distanced themselves from Dietz and withdrew their sponsorships.[14]
