Jennifer Grey, who rose to fame as ‘Baby’ in Dirty Dancing, faced a tragic turning point in her life after a car accident in 1987. Despite the film’s success and her instant stardom, Grey was grappling with survivor’s guilt following the accident involving her then-boyfriend, Matthew Broderick, which resulted in the deaths of a mother and daughter.
Though she suffered only minor physical injuries, the emotional scars impacted her career, and she stepped away from the spotlight for years. Grey later underwent a nose job that she described as “the nose job from hell,” which altered her appearance and further complicated her return to Hollywood.
After a long struggle, Grey found success again in 2010 by winning Dancing with the Stars, reigniting her passion for performing. In recent years, she has continued to take on new projects, including a role in the film Untogether. Now 62, Grey reflects on her journey with a renewed sense of joy, reminding fans of her resilience and talent.
