“She dated Cruise—then vanished from the spotlight” 🎬💔 While his stardom skyrocketed, Rebecca De Mornay chose a different path—quieter, deeper, and far from the tabloids. But a rare 2024 photo with her daughter brought her back into the conversation. See it in the article below 👇
Her role in «Risky Business» brought Rebecca’s career into a new level. There, she played the role of Lana towards whom no viewers could stay indifferent. She was lucky enough to star alongside T. Cruise. While the actor’s career was catapulted into worldwide recognition and stardom, Mornay experienced quite periods and rose to fame very gradually captivating her target audience. Also, her high-profile romance with the «Top Gun» actor drew public attention.
Born in 1959, her childhood was not the most carefree one that we can imagine. The girl faced the divorce of her parents which led her to relocate in Europe. Later, her stepfather passed away and all these challenges shaped the future star as an individual fostering a sense of maturity and independence. Her appearance in «The Hand That Rocks the Cradle» brought the idea of female characters on the screen into a new level.
The most unique part of her journey is that Rebecca has always chosen characters resonated with her personality, not for the desperate sake of mainstream fame reflecting her measured approach of stardom which is worthy of our praise. Concerning her personal life, she was in a relationship with Cruise for 2 years. In 1995, she married P. O’Neal with whom he welcomed 2 daughters – Sophia and Veronica.
Sophia made her cinematic debut in 2024. She also shares incredible resemblance to her mother. Later in her career, Rebecca also appeared in shows like «Lucifer» and «Jessica Jones». Her performance in the 2024 Italian thriller «Saint Clare» deserves special attention.
