TheStarScoop.com participated in a multi media interview with Molly Ringwald who stars on the ABC Family hit series The Secret Life of the American Teenager. Here’s what she had to say to us.
THE STAR SCOOP:
Hello, Molly. It’s great to speak with you.
MOLLY RINGWALD:
Hello.
THE STAR SCOOP:
You have a really great chemistry both with Mark Derwin who plays “George” and with the girls who play your daughters. Was that something that happened sort of right when you guys met, or did you guys really have to work at it to make it authentic?
MOLLY RINGWALD:
I think we liked each other from the get-go, but I think as time goes on, obviously you get to know the person more and you get more comfortable with them. I think our relationship has definitely grown and as the characters have grown, we’ve gotten to know each other better and it just really helps to get it even more sort of realistic. You develop little quirks together and impressions and it just makes it more realistic.
THE STAR SCOOP:
Definitely, and as a follow-up, as a family person yourself, as a mother, do you feel like this show is doing a good job of portraying an accurate family, the way that it would be in real life?
MOLLY RINGWALD:
I think so. I mean I think that every family is different. I don’t think that there’s any definitive way to portray a family. I think that this is the way that this family functions, but I think obviously it’s different in other families. But, I think that Brenda does a pretty good job of sort of doing that family dynamic – the sort of sibling rivalries, the little arguments. Yes, I think it’s pretty realistic.
THE STAR SCOOP:
Great. Thank you so much.
MOLLY RINGWALD:
Thank you.
