This star’s life began in a small town, but she, along with her mother, Judy, moved to California and risked homelessness while she auditioned. But even after finding fame, her life wasn’t easy. She took a break from her career, found love after several failed relationships, and lost loved ones. Now her life is full of joy.

Growing Up
This actress’s early years were spent in Bellingham, Washington, where she lived in a trailer park. She often reflects on how some of her classmates were told not to associate with her because of where she came from.
“Yeah, I don’t know – they didn’t want their kids playing with me. I don’t know. I know it’s stupid. It’s so silly,” she said in an interview with CBS News.
However, she wasn’t discouraged by the prejudice she faced. Instead, it fueled her determination to succeed. In fact, as she returned to her hometown years later, she encountered those same classmates who now claimed they had always believed in her success. She told them candidly, “No, you didn’t.”
