Former '80s movie star Molly Ringwald, known for her roles in iconic films like 'Sixteen Candles' and 'The Breakfast Club,' is now passing the torch to her 20-year-old daughter, Mathilda, who is stepping into the world of acting.
In a recent interview with The Times, Ringwald, now 56, shared her initial reluctance to allow Mathilda to pursue acting at a young age. She explained that they wanted Mathilda to focus on her childhood rather than diving into the pressures of a professional acting career. Despite Mathilda's disappointment at the time, Ringwald believes it was the right decision, emphasizing the stress and uncertainty that often come with the industry.
