She was born Lenuța Petrescu into a peasant family in Petrești commune, Dâmbovița County, in the historical region of Wallachia. Her father worked as a ploughman.

She joined the Bucharest branch of the Romanian Communist Party in 1939 and met 21-year-old Nicolae Ceaușescu.

Their relationship was interrupted by Ceaușescu's frequent stints in prison, but they finally married on 23 December 1947.
