Phoebe Cates

We can probably say that Phoebe Cates was destined to be in showbiz since both her parents worked on Broadway. When she was a child, she became a model and a dancer. It was later on when she decided to pursue acting and starred in her first film Paradise. After this movie debut, she worked on back-to-back movies until 1994. After multiple projects, she felt burnt out and decided to take a break and focus on her children.

Now, you probably won’t see Phoebe in productions as much. Hopefully, she has enough investment money and savings from her successful career. In 1989, she got engaged. Cates and her husband Kevin Kline moved to New York and have two children. The couple gave birth to a son Owen in 1991 and a daughter Greta in 1994. The actress believed that she retired from Hollywood to raise her children, and she never really liked acting.
