The Olsen sisters, Marry-Kate and Ashley, took Hollywood by storm during the 90\u2019s after they shared the role of cute-beyond-words Michelle Tanner on the TV sitcom Full House.
\nWhen their mom took them to the audition, the producers had already chosen a set of twins for the role that would turn iconic, but just a glance at the cute Olsens made them change their mind and hire Marry-Kate and Ashley instead.\n
\nThe girls would take turns in playing Michelle because it would have been a lot of work for a single child to be filming long hours. The show ran from 1987 until 1955, and audiences from all over the country and beyond fell for the character of Michelle so much that the girls turned acting sensation almost overnight.\n
Being that successful, they started their own company and became CEO\u2019s at the age of just 6, and when they reached 10, they were on the list of youngest self-made millionaires in the history.\n
\nSadly, the year the so much loved series Full House ended was the year when the marriage of the Olsen sisters\u2019 parents finished. That affected the girls and they tried not to think of what was going on in the house by taking new projects and films.
\nIn their private life, the girls were said to be very shy. At school, they were placed in separate classrooms because both their parents and teachers believed they depended a lot on one another and wanted to teach them to be able to function on their own.\n
Speaking of their childhood, Mary-Kate said she wouldn\u2019t want anyone to have an upbringing like she and her sister had. \u201dI look at old photos of me, and I don\u2019t feel connected to them at all \u2026 I would never wish my upbringing on anyone,\u201d Mary-Kate explained in an interview with the magazine Marie Claire. She added how she felt the two were like \u201dlittle monkey performers\u201d in front of the cameras.\n
\nDuring their long careers as actresses, the famous twins played in over 30 movies and released music albums, videos, and a series of books. The last movie that starred in together was \u201dNew York Minute,\u201d which didn\u2019t go well with the critics. After that, the sisters announced they are stepping away from acting and will be pursuing careers as fashion designers.\n
Today, they are running two clothing brands, \u201dElizabeth and James\u201d and \u201dThe Row,\u201d which are known and wanted worldwide.
\n\u201cIf you want things to be perfect or beautiful, it\u2019s a lot of hard work,\u201d Mary-Kate said. \u201cNothing comes easy. That\u2019s just the way we were raised; that\u2019s what we believe is necessary to do something different.\u201d\n
\n
When it comes to their private life, there\u2019s not much that they themselves reveal as they try to keep a low profile. Rumors are that back in 2008, when the whole world was shaken by the death of actor Heath Ledger, Marry-Kate Olsen was dating him. She never confirmed this herself.\n
Today, Marry-Kate was married to French banker based in the United States, Oliver Sarcozy, half brother of the ex president of France, Nicolas Sarcozy. They tied the knot in 2015, three years after they started dating.\n
Ashley married artist Louis Eisner after she was spotted with twice-her-age boyfriends in the past.
\nThe twin\u2019s younger sister, beautiful Elizabeth, is embracing acting as her future career. He sisters are very supportive and attend her film premieres. In 2011, Elizabeth had her major breakthrough in the thriller drama \u201dMartha Marcy May Marlene.\u201d\n
\n
\u201dIt\u2019s always felt as though [Mary-Kate and Ashley] have been women, while I\u2019ve been the kid. But we\u2019re very close and I look up to them a lot. I wasn\u2019t really affected by their fame until I went to college. People would expect me to be partying and all sorts of stuff. It was really strange,\u201d Elizabeth told Daily Telegraph.\n
Although Marry-Kate and Ashley went separate ways, their bond is as strong as day one. They are extremely close and are always there for each other.\n
\u201dOur bond is really beyond words. I know when she\u2019s hurting, I know when she\u2019s going through something,\u201d Ashley told Times of India. \u201cI know when she\u2019s happy \u2013 whether I\u2019m with her or not, I know,\u201d she added.\n
We wish the Olsen sisters the best that life can bring in the years to come.\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
