That same year, she landed the lead role in a Leucan commercial, before joining the cast of Les Enfants Roy in 2014. At the same time, she won several singing competitions, where she made a name for herself with a song written for her, called Raconte-moi encore.

In 2016, Depeault began her career in television, participating in the series L'Échappée in the role of Claudie. She acted in various short and feature films including Le dernier jour (2018) and Vacarme (2020).[2]
