La Grange was born in Pretoria, South Africa. From 1994 until 1996, she served as a typist for Mary Mxadana, private secretary to Nelson Mandela, the elected post-apartheid President of South Africa. In 1996, she was promoted to assistant private secretary, and in 1999 she was again promoted to Private Secretary to the Office of the President. She was a founding staff member of the Nelson Mandela Foundation which served as post-Presidential office for Nelson Mandela. On 17 January 2015, La Grange stated on her official Twitter account that she felt that President Jacob Zuma was making white South Africans feel unwelcome in the country by saying that all of South Africa's problems started when Jan van Riebeeck arrived at the Cape in 1652. Her tweets on the issue prompted a significant public backlash, including a reaction from Zuma, leading her to issue an apology later that day.
