She appeared in Balamory as a child, alongside her only sister, Heather.[1][6]

In 2012, Diamond posed for comic book artist David Mack, who portrayed her as Echo in the Marvel Comics miniseries Daredevil: End of Days.[10] In 2013 she posed for photographer Terry Richardson.[11]
Diamond has also dabbled into the music industry with her 2013 song/music video, "Sex in a Slaughter House".[12]
