Jennie Garth’s Rough Patch
Shortly after finishing on Dancing With The Stars, Jennie Garth’s daughter came down with a mysterious illness and her father died:
“I had this six months of hell. I had a sick daughter and then my father passed away, so there was a six-month period in my life when I didn’t think about my looks or my weight or my body or anything.
“(Lola) got very sick and we didn’t know what was wrong with her… I was basically locked in a closet with her for three months.“I didn’t exercise or eat healthy. I had been a (size) 27 in my jeans after Dancing With The Stars and I was so excited. But it really went back quickly. I definitely gained inches and a size.”
It turns out her daughter had a form of JRA (Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis) which has been treated and she is now in remission.
I’ve heard of Juvenile Diabetes but never Arthritis. That must have been awful for her, and to top it off her father passing away.
Jennie Garth can now be seen on the new 90210.
