I feel like only the last five minutes of the podcast answered any questions. There was far too much talking by Alaa. But I'm glad to finally have part of Angela's story, at long last. I'm so, so sorry that she wasted 20 years with that creep. But I'm so glad she's found a better man. It was also great to hear their crazy cruise stories!

RetroGuy2000 11-28-2020, 06:48 AM Agreed, so happy she got outta that relationship and found someone good. Definitely! It's so sad she wasted half her life with someone so controlling. I liked hearing about her reconnecting with her parents, too. I agree the podcast seemed like it was just getting good when it ended. Cant wait for next ep. Same here! I definitely want to hear how/when Angela decided to get out of that life. Was it because of the podcast? Was it something else? She specifically stated brainwashing was involved. How did she even break free? Lorimar Television 11-28-2020, 07:14 AM Definitely! It's so sad she wasted half her life with someone so controlling.

None of that explains the wig!" But thinking about it, it really does. Angela says, "I was, like, a slave." That says it all. So glad she's found comfort in her higher power, and a supportive husband. I'm so glad she's reconnected with the world. I checked out her IMDB to see if it's been updated, and it has! It explains a lot more Angela Watson was born a farmer's daughter in a little town of 500 people, outside of Danville, Illinois. Her parents retired and moved to Southwest Florida when Angela was just ten years old. Her performing career had begun with tap dancing at the age of three, continuing into her pre-teens when she amassed over 200 trophies and 60 crowns competing in numerous beauty pageants. Angela quickly learned that even the best dancer had difficulty beating out a singer in the talent portion of those contests. Angela was determined to win First Place, thus her singing career was born. At age 13, she locked herself in her room, not appearing for days until she announced to her parents she would be singing Patsy Cline's "Walking After Midnight" in the upcoming pageant, and that she planned to win. And win she did! Her pageant success led to modeling in New York and Dallas, until she was discovered by a manager who advised her parents to take her to Los Angeles and give her a shot at television and film work. Her first national commercial was for McDonald's, followed by Doritos, IBM and GE. Within her first year in California, Angela was cast in a recurring role on ABC's "Davis Rules" with Jonathan Winters and Randy Quaid. The following year, Angela was handpicked to costar in the 90's TGIF sitcom "Step by Step" playing Suzanne Somers and Patrick Duffy's very vain and seemingly shallow, though with a good heart, teenage daughter "Karen Foster" for 7 seasons. The show has over 150 episodes currently streaming on Hulu. Even though a successful TV actress, Angela was far from an experienced Hollywood wild child, and unfortunately her innocence and naivete were taken advantage of by a so called "production partner" who promised to help her transition into an adult actor with longevity in the business. By the time her family and friends realized he was actually a con man who was brainwashing Angela, it was too late. Over the next 20 years, not only was Angela isolated from everyone she loved, but he also convinced her that she had to sue her parents for supposedly "stealing her money," when in fact, he was the one fleecing her acting earnings. Her relationship with the narcissistic abuser turned into a daily nightmare she couldn't escape from. Thankfully, Angela was able to secretly listen to some YouTube videos that she now knows was actually reprogramming her brain to choose to be happy despite her circumstances. After two years of doing so, she realized she had the courage and strength to break free. Angela says it was "by the Grace of God, and her mother's unceasing prayers for her return," that she is now joyfully reunited with her formerly estranged family and friends. This new chapter of her life has already kicked off with quite a bang, after accompanying her new husband to the optometrist, Michael Witherington, a songwriter at heart from Oklahoma. He asked Angela to record his catchy original song, "We Love Santa Claus," with producer Julian Sundby, and Angela was delighted to sing the fun toe-tapping holiday tune. Angela kicked off 2020 playing 8 different characters in a 6 week run of The Dining Room. - IMDb Mini Biography By: Angela Watson (https://www.imdb.com/search/name?bio_author=Angela%20Watson&view=simple&sort=alpha) I'm so glad she's writing her own story now. Lorimar Television 12-05-2020, 05:10 PM I agree Retro! That's great that they updated her imdb page too. TMC 08-22-2022, 01:09 AM Angela Watson admitted that she was wrong and her parents didn't steal her money. She admitted to being in a abusive relationship at the time with a man who actually stole her money. He basically, lied to her and drove her to distant herself from her friends and cast mates for 20 years. But with help from friends, she broke free of him and is currently rebuilding relationships with friends and cast mates.
