Speaking to Starry Magazine, she disclosed that she hated how her fans put her on a pedestal as she desires to be accessible and show people that her life is just as regular as theirs.

Despite her successful role on the show, she is a mom, a wife, and a daughter. She disclosed that she has to pick up dog poop from the floor like anyone else with a pet would.

To the fan's dismay, "The Wrong Path" actress also confessed that she did not have a nanny and that she and her husband did everything themselves. She added:

"We're just normal people. We're worried about COVID. My husband is a first responder. I just try to be as transparent as possible and as real as possible."
