I am sure that they went on whatever their parents brought in. Their dad was a real estate developer and a mortgage banker.

God bless you two and the girls and their family always!!!

NO ONE was able to withdraw money from that account but ME! So these child stars can stipulate NO ONE can touch their money like Mary Kate and Ashley did.

So it was really dumb of Gary Coleman and Angela Watson to let this happen! I know this is OT but if 15% of child star earnings can't be touched till age 18 that means Gary got 15% of the 18 million he said his parents lost. So that's a cool $3 million or so Gary got. I wonder why he never mentioned that??

But Christine and Staci are right about how weird her reaction to the SBS clip they showed was.
That's my local TV station!

Angela is still hot enough to act. Anyone know why she quit acting??

I'm very happy to relay that Christine Lakin and Angela Watson have at last ended their 20-year estrangement and have reunited! You can hear about it, in Christine's own words, on her podcast, at 27 minutes and 20 seconds into this podcast.

Ever since Lorimar originally posted about the huge rift between these two former friends (which Staci also commented on), there's been a hole in my heart. It made me very sad to hear Christine accuse Angela of allegedly, reportedly, being in an abusive, cult-like relationship, and Angela allegedly, reportedly, inadvertently confirming it through allegedly ridiculous press releases from alleged, reportedly fictional production studios. Hearing the confirmations from Staci made me feel even worse.

Angela (and, in an unrelated twist, Brandon Call) now have an open invitation to appear on Christine's podcast, and it seems as though the rift between Angela and (Christine and Staci) is healing, due to an alleged change in Angela's relationship status. Angela's alleged standoffishness with Christine, Staci, her family, and others is partially addressed in the above podcast, although they were careful with their wording, due to alleged legal stuff and in an effort to potentially protect Angela from alleged legal stuff.

I did! Sounds like Staci, Angela, and Christine have all gone out together since as well!

At 49:50 into this podcast, Christine mentions catching up with Angela, and that Angela would like to do a podcast, when the legal battles are over. That was almost a year ago, and there have been very few podcasts since then: none since June 2019.
