Many people think these girls are lucky because they have always had each other to support them through the hectic life of a celebrity. They were born into a life of fame and fortune but have had many ups and downs. 

Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen were IT girls in the 90s and early 2000s. Their fame came from their mother’s friend, who suggested they send a picture of the twins to a talent agent. After that, everything went well for them. 

Three months after the family sent their photo, the twins were chosen to play Michelle Tanner in Full House.

The Olsen twins did not have time to play like normal kids. The show’s set was their playground, and it is a good thing they had each other. Backstage, they would take turns doing their homework. From the age of six, until they were grown up, the twins also starred in 36 movies made for TV.

Their father, Dave Olsen, knew the girls needed to be appropriately managed. This was probably one of his best decisions because their lawyer, Robert Thorne, successfully negotiated a significant increase in their wages at Full House. Their salary went up from $4,000 per episode to $25,000 per episode.

The twins became the IT girls in Hollywood, and tweens worldwide look up to them. Their production company helped launch their careers to new heights. However, as they grew older, they desired to move from acting to fashion.

The Olsen twins were in control of their destiny and their business. This meant that they could veto any of Thorne’s creative ideas under the contract. The twins worked really hard every day, and by 2007, Forbes magazine said they were worth $11 million.

They traveled worldwide to shoot their films, visiting places like Rome, Hawaii, New York City, and Paris.

At 18, they were keen to make a mark in the industry, and what better way to tell the world that you’ve made it than a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame?

They also set a new record as the youngest celebrities to earn their star. The previous record for the youngest person to be inducted into the Walk of Fame was held by musician Jimmy Boyd, who was 20 when he received his star. On 29 April 2004, Mary-Kate and Ashley took that title from him.

Connie Chung once interviewed the twins after The Hollywood Reporter named them among the 100 most powerful women in Hollywood. This was a very impressive title for two girls so young (they were only 15 at the time).

The interview with Oprah was all about the twins’ health and well-being. But this made the twins more popular than ever, and then they had to deal with a lot of attention from the public. 

In 2016, Netflix picked up the Fuller House reboot, and most former cast members made appearances throughout the show. The twins were not in the show because they did not want to start acting again, and fame left a bitter taste in their mouths.

Ashley had Lyme disease years ago but did not realize it until recently. Tick bites cause Lyme disease, which is usually curable. This disease is not inherited, so it was just bad luck that she got infected.

Poor Ashley suffered from severe headaches, joint pain, rashes, and low energy as a result of the Lyme Disease going undiscovered for so long. 

Mary-Kate won a Daytime Emmy as Riley Carlson, a shy and bookish teenager, in So Little Time. 

The family must have acting talent, as their younger sister Elizabeth Olsen starred in the popular series WandaVision, which was nominated for 23 Primetime Emmys. She was nominated for Best Lead Actress, but Kate Winslet won.

The twins have shown many times that they are more than just good-looking. They are substantial young business leaders. They want to be successful in Hollywood and the fashion industry.

They have also become fashion designers. They seem to have everything they could ever want. From being child stars to setting fashion trends, these two can do anything they want.
