This Girl Was ‘The Ugly Dark One’ Protecting Sister with Special Needs Yet Topped Hot 100 List as Actress
|Her sister was nine years older than her, but she was fiercely protective of her. Although she did not have many opportunities growing up because of her looks, she is now majorly successful.
One woman is now a successful actress, but when she was much younger, she would never have imagined she would make it in Hollywood because she looked so different from her sisters and mother. She was “ugly,” according to her.
For years, she worked hard to become an A-list celebrity, but she also carried significant lessons from her childhood and never forgot where she came from because of her family.
Throughout her life, she has cared for her sister with special needs and ensures that she endeavors to help others in need whenever possible. She might have topped a publication’s Hot 100 list at one point, but this actress has always remained proud of her roots.

Eva said there were many things her family couldn’t do because her sister, Liza, would be unable to endure things like Disneyland rides or going to certain restaurants for dinner.
She may be nine years younger than Liza, but she has always protected her older sister. The actress joked that if people thought she was feisty now, they should have seen her when she was younger.
She recounted an incident where her sister had worn a letterman jacket to school, but when she returned home, it was gone. Someone at school had stolen the jacket off Liza’s body. Eva was furious and asked Liza what happened.
Not thinking that anybody would have stolen the jacket for a malicious reason, Liza told her she thought someone must have been cold. The actress said:
“She didn’t think it was a mean person. She thought, ‘Oh, somebody must have needed it more than me. She’s taught me a lot about compassion and putting yourself in other people’s shoes.”
