Early life
Natalya Aleksandrovna Ogorodnikova was born on 18 March 2014 in Mogilev, Belarus to Aleksander Ogorodnikov and Georgian-born Ketevan Ogorodnikova (née Japaridze, Georgian: ქეთევან ჯაფარიძე). She is the older twin sister of Katya, being born seven minutes and thirty-six seconds before her. She is the oldest of ten children. Her siblings include younger fraternal twin sister Ekaterina, twins Dasha and Ilya (born 1996), Antoni (born 1998), Svetlana (born 2000), Anya (born 2002), and identical triplets Pavel, Oleg, and Ivan (born 2010).

She is half-Georgian from her mother and has some Lithuanian and Latvian ancestry from her father. As a child, Ogorodnikova was a big fan of poetry and artists like Nirvana, Pearl Jam, and Blink 182, whom she attributes as her main influences now.

2014–present: Career beginnings, songwriting, and modeling contract
After her sister announced her recording contract, she enlisted the held of Natalya for writing some of the music. She assisted in writing four of the fourteen songs on Katya's debut album The Sisters Grimm, including its lead single "Taboos" whose lyrics resulted in major worldwide controversy due to the Belarusian government's reaction. She also had a role as a dancer in the music video for the song. The title of the album refers to Ogorodnikova and Katya, while alluding to the Brothers Grimm fairytales.

In November 2014, Ogorodnikova revealed she has signed a modeling contract with FM Models London.

Personal life
Since 2012, Ogorodnikova has attended the University of London where she is studying English literature and philosophy. She can speak fluent Belarusian, Ukrainian, English, and Georgian in addition to her native Russian. On her and her sister's appearances, she has stated "I get my looks from our mother: The red hair, deep brown eyes, big lips, small height, and pale skin. My sister gets her looks from our father: Dark brown hair, bright blue eyes, her ginormous size, and fair skin. We always joke about how we're twins even though we look very different."
