9 Child-Stars We Used to Adore – But Where Are They Now?

2Jodie Sweetin

We all remember the sweet little girl from Full House sitcom. She was simply adorable as Stephanie Tanner, but her real-life story is far from perfect.

Did you know that her parents were in jail when she was born, and she was adopted by her uncle when she was only 9 months old? But that’s not even the shocking part. Things went horribly wrong when the sitcom Full House ended.

“Drugs and alcohol just sort of numbed everything. I was doing cocaine, and ecstasy, and alcohol, and all that”, she said. However, it seems like Jodie is about to have a second chance in life. She was announced as one of the celebrity competitors on Dancing With the Stars for its 22nd season. We wish you all the best Jodie!

4Amanda Bynes

Life is great when you have your own TV series named after you; The Amanda Show. But if that’s not enough, how about a leading role in two famous movies; Big Fat Liar and What I Like About You?

What can go wrong when you have such a perfect life? Apparently, a lot of things can go wrong and Amanda Bynes is the living proof!

She retired from acting in 2012, and she lost control of her life. From using Twitter to trash Jay-Z regarding his looks, to spending $1.4m on drugs in a matter of months.  She’s not coming back to acting, but she’s planning to pursue a career in fashion designing.
