26. Bonnie Langford
Child star, Bonnie Langford, started acting in 1970 with her first performance being in the play for Gone with the Wind. She followed this up with a superb performance in Gypsy, for which she got nominated for a Drama Desk Award. Aside from her numerous plays, Langford also was cast in EastEnders where she took on the role of Carmel Kazemi. She gushed about her time in the show since it was one of her favorites. Langford wrapped it up in 2018.
Of course, this wasn’t the end to her career as she was also part of the show Dancing on Ice. Her fondness for skating was put to good use in this dancing competition. She went on to have a family herself with her former husband Paul Grunert. Her reason for filing for separation was “unreasonable behavior”. The two had worked together in one show and never thought that she would be getting married to him later on. She certainly hasn’t stopped pursuing her career and hopefully, with the right investment planning, she would be able to keep living in comfort.
