Chloé Henry was born 5 March 1987 in Corpus Christi, Texas, and lived in the United States until she was eight years old, where she started artistic gymnastics. She moved to Belgium where she started her international artistic gymnastics career. She participated in a number of European Championships and one World Championship. She was also selected to compete at the 2007 World Championship, but dislocated her elbow prior to the championship, which took her out of the running for the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing, China. In 2006, she was the Belgian Champion. In 2008 she refocused her objectives to pole vault.

After five months in pole vault she received her first medal at the National Championship, when she jumped over 3m35 to take home the bronze. In 2012, she became for the first time Belgian indoor Champion, a title maintained in 2013, 2014, and 2015. In 2012, 2014, and 2015 she also became the Outdoor Belgian Champion.

Henry holds the indoor and outdoor National Record. She bettered a 10-year-old national record with a jump over 4m22 in December 2011 in Sittard, Netherlands, Belgian indoor record. In 2012, 2013, and 2014 she increased the record to 4m29 at the KBC Nacht, 4m33, 4m41, and 4m42 respectively national record. During an official competition in Brussels, Belgium she also jumped a Belgian record at 4m26, which was later not recognised by the Flemish Federation.

Henry was the first Belgian female pole vaulter to ever qualify for a European Championships when she jumped the qualifying standard, 4m40, on 21/04/2016 in Chula Vista, CA, USA for the 2016 European Championships in Amsterdam.
