"You guys look so much alike. Enjoy your time with your mom," a fan wrote. "Y'all look so much alike, do people ever think y'all sisters, not mother and daughter," another added.

While the actress shared that she missed taking over the action scenes herself, she knew it was best for her baby.

Daniela Ruah has an interesting yet cute story about meeting her husband, David Paul Olsen. The actress who plays Kensi Blye on the beloved television series NCIS: LA has an on-screen romance with Deeks, played by Eric Christian Olsen.

Eric, however, is Daniela's brother-in-law in real life, which makes for an exciting story. Eric who set the duo up revealed in an interview on The Queen Latifah Show that his brother and his co-star were both dating "awful" people and he hated to see it.

He felt neither of them was able to be themselves, so he decided to try and get them together, thankfully, his brother was his stunt double, so he had the perfect place to introduce them. He said,

"When they got together, because [David] came on to do stunts, I would say something nice about her to him and then say something to him about her."

CHANGE IN LIFESTYLE

Daniella and David started dating in February 2011 and were married in June 2014, not long after the birth of their son, River. They also have a daughter named Sierra.

While fans are used to seeing the actress perform the role of a crime fighter, in real life, Daniela is the mom of two young children.

While the actress shared that she missed taking over the action scenes herself, she knew it was best for her baby.
