In 2018, De Roey played in 12 LET events with a best result of T22 in the season-ending Andalucia Costa Del Sol Open De España. She also played in 11 events on the LET Access Series and won her first professional title, the WPGA International Challenge, at Stoke-by-Nayland in England. In 2019, she played in 14 LET tournaments and recorded four top-10 finishes, ending 23rd on the Order of Merit.

In March 2020, De Roey started the final round of the Women's NSW Open in Australia with a five-shot lead after rounds of 71, 64 and 66, but faltered on the final nine and shot 75, ultimately finishing second two strokes behind Julia Engström.[4]
