She raised $1.5 million in round-one investment, and in 2019 reported an annual revenue of $10 million.[12] In 2019, Miller secured $9 million in series A funding, which was led by Waldencast's Michel Brousett.[13][14] Miller also secured funding from Unilever, but remains the largest shareholder in The Nue Co., with her husband rugby player Charlie Gower.[3]
