Eila Rose Duncan is a mystery to all. The LA-born daughter of "Deadwood" actress, Anna Gunn, has been around since 2006. Although her entire identity is kept private, Eila has been critical in reenergizing her ill mother at the peak of her career.

Eila Rose Duncan is the daughter of Anna Gunn, 54, an American actress known for playing Skylar White in AMC's "Breaking Bad." Her father is Scotland-born realtor and actor Alastair Duncan, 65, who made his acting debut in 1998. Nineteen years into their marriage, the pair went through a divorce.

Eila, born in Los Angeles, California, in 2006, is Anna and Alastair's youngest child after her sister, Emma Duncan. She weighed 7lb 1oz at birth and measured 19.5in. Anna had kept her children from the limelight, especially Eila, who also played a vital role when her mother experienced health issues.

Eila Rose Duncan Played a Big Role in Her Mom's Fitness

Anna attended a 2013 Emmy Awards, looking unlike herself. The "Deadwood" actress looked highly underweight compared to the usual. Over time, her appearance raised the eyebrows of the media, who considered her barely recognizable. It inspired some questions, to which she responded:

"I was actually ill while I was filming the show, and it affected my weight. They gave me cortisone, and I puffed up and gained weight. Now I'm better, thank God."

Anna had become fed up with questions about her weight and said it was disturbing that people were more concerned about that than her craft. Anna was diagnosed with Lupus and received medication that altered her weight. Her younger daughter, Eila's youthful energy, combined with pilates, helped her improve her fitness.

Eila Rose Duncan's Parents Separated When She Was 3

Alastair filed for divorce from Anna in 2008, which became concrete in 2009. A ruling instructing Anna to pay child support was established upon their separation.

Although there are photos of Emma on two separate occasions, her sister has not been seen.

After a while, Alastair felt that Anna should stop paying. However, his mind changed when she bagged a million dollars after the "Breaking Bad" season finale.

The AMC Series made up most of her revenue that year, totaling $890,855.83, as opposed to her realtor ex-husband, who earns a salary of $10,000. With a spring in Anna's earnings, Alastair wanted her to resume paying child support. It is contextually essential to consider that Anna also paid portions of $232,000 to her team members.

Eila Rose Duncan Has Never Been Seen in Public

Despite all the fame and attention that comes from being an actress in an award-winning television series and many other globally recognized films, Anna has kept her daughters out of the world's gaze. There is very little information about her children in public, despite her entire life being publicized.

Emma was seen with her mother when she was younger. Her first time at a cancer fundraiser was in 2010. Here, Emma and her mother were caught in matching outfits as they enjoyed the activities of the fundraiser.

Emma was seen again at the BAFTA LA TV tea 2012, socializing with Anna and other public figures, such as director Nigel Lythgoe.

Eila Is 16-Years-Old This Year.

Although there are photos of Emma on two separate occasions, her sister has not been seen. Born in 2006, the actress' daughter turned 16 years old this September, and although there is awareness about her existence, nobody would recognize her unless Anna was to share photos with the public.

Like Alastair, another celebrity who has been through issues with child support is video vixen and model Blac Chyna. The model claimed that both of her baby's fathers, Rob Kardashian and Tyga, were not living up to the agreements regarding their sons' child support fees. The fathers denied those claims.
