Jessica Biel – 7th Heaven
Former teen idol Jessica Biel is living proof that an actress can leave Hollywood and still make it big. Of course, everyone still knows Biel best from her role as teen Mary Camden in the family drama series 7th Heaven. Afterward, unlike many other child stars, she managed to break away from her younger image by starring in films like The Texas Chainsaw Massacre remake.
After taking a break from acting in 2015 to raise her children with husband Justin Timberlake, Biel decided to return to work – just not acting. So, she opened Au Fudge, an upscale, but kid-friendly, restaurant in mid-2016. Then, in 2017, she started Au Fudge Camp, a children’s art store that also hosted parent-child art classes and sleepover camps. Sadly, it didn’t work out for Beil, with both businesses closing in 2019.
