How many times has it happened that you think of an old show you used to love watching and wonder what the actors are doing after so many years? I guess many of you that have seen “Little House on the Prairie” and were eager to see each new adventure of the family living on the farm in Plum Creek near Walnut Grove, Minnesota, would love to know what the actors are up to these days.
Those fans who were fond of the actress playing Mary Ingalls, beautiful Melissa Sue Anderson, were convinced she would continue being part of their life through the small screens, but she had other plans.
Today, she speaks of her decision to leave Hollywood behind and move to Canada.
This actress started her acting career playing guest roles, and had her way into the showbiz when she became one of the central figures of “Little House on the Prairie.” Her acting brought her several nominations for Best Lead Actress in a Drama Series, and her fans knew she deserved it.
Speaking of her experience filming this drama that made her famous, back in 2010, Anderson told Pop Entertainment, “I’m lucky that there even was a character to play, because in the book, there isn’t much of one. Laura [Ingalls, author of the Little House novels upon which the series was based and the story was centered] was a quite older woman when she wrote the books. She was remembering the best of her life. The characters of Ma and Mary didn’t factor in a lot. There was a lot of Laura and Pa and Laura and Jack the dog and Laura and Mr. Edwards, but there wasn’t a lot of Mary. I’m fortunate that they discovered that I could act.”
She tried herself in other minor roles after Mary Ingalls, but then in 1990 she got married to television producer Michael Sloan and moved to Montreal in 2002 with her husband and their two children, daughter Piper and son Griffin.
In 2007, the family became Canadian citizens and with the new life came new commitments, so Anderson decided to let go of the showbiz because she wanted to spend more time with her kids and didn’t want them to feel pressured to pursue acting careers themselves.
In an interview with E-Talk, Anderson said, “I really stepped away for a long time. That was really for the kids so they would have their own sense of who they were as opposed to being with me.”
However, Anderson didn’t step back from acting completely, but took small roles over the recent years. Her life-changing experience of being part in a series like “Little House on the Prairie” encouraged her to write a memoir titled The Way I See It: A Look Back at My Life on Little House.
Former child star, Amanda Bynes spotted out and about with new unrecognizable look
The past few years have not been easy for Amanda Bynes. The former child actress has completely given up on her Hollywood career after experiencing several crises connected to her mental health.
She has since debuted a fresh appearance that has truly taken folks by surprise.
Amanda Bynes used to be one of the most recognizable young people on the globe. But when her battle with mental illness began to worsen, the budding young star ceased making appearances on television and in movies.
The actress has recently been transparent about her struggles with substance misuse. She described her life after acting as “just stuck at home, getting high, watching TV and tweeting,” adding, “I got really into my drug usage and it became a really dark, sad world for me.”
At the time, Bynes said, “I’ve been sober for almost four years now,” and she gave her parents credit for “really helping me get back on track.”
Lynn and Rick Bynes, her parents, agreed with her decision to end her conservatorship. Since 2013, the former child actress has been under conservatorship. In 2017, her guardianship of the property ended.
In a statement provided by her lawyer David Esquibias on March 22, 2022, Bynes stated, “I have been working hard to improve my health so that I can live and work independently, and I will continue to prioritize my well-being in this next chapter.” Regarding taking back control of her life, the actress stated, “I am excited about my upcoming endeavors — including my fragrance line — and look forward to sharing more when I can.”
Judge Roger L. Lund of the Ventura Superior Court ruled to dissolve the conservatorship, stating that there were no longer “grounds for establishment of a conservatorship of the person.”

However, things kind of fell apart last year. The actress called emergency services herself and was put on a 72-hour psychiatric detention. “She hasn’t been in contact with her family for quite some time,” according to a source who was close to the situation at the time.
On March 19, the actress was spotted strolling around Los Angeles’ streets nude. In order to receive assistance, she then flagged down a passing car and dialed 911 for herself.
The actress reportedly explained to the driver that she had been recovering from a mental episode. After that, she was brought to the local police station, where staff members decided she needed to be placed under a 5150 mental hold.
The actress hasn’t made headlines since the 2023 episode until now. It appears that Amanda Bynes has changed, as seen by recent images of her.
The 38-year-old former child star, who had jet black hair and incredibly long nails, was spotted last week.
She had on khaki shorts and an oversized gray t-shirt. She accessorized her ensemble by wearing a crossbody purse on her shoulder.
The former actress, who cut her hair late last year because she was unhappy with how it was “growing out so awkwardly,” announced in March of this year that she was “going to start wearing wigs now.”
She has already discussed how her unhappiness this year caused her to acquire a lot of weight, and she is hoping to reduce more than 50 pounds in order to reach her desired weight goal.
However, other people were offended by the image and the hurtful remarks. “This should never have made it onto the Internet,” one individual commented. This woman is experiencing a severe crisis related to her mental health. You deserve so much humiliation. Give her space.
Another supported Bynes by saying, “My heart hurts for her.” Another person had a similar feeling, writing, “Please stop posting Amanda; she’s had enough scrutiny and hurt in her life. I wish the internet would leave her alone.” She has endured enough suffering.
