You may remember Haylie Duff from "Material Girls," a few appearances on "Lizzie McGuire," and "7th Heaven". She was also the voice of Isabella in "The Lizzie McGuire Movie." She is the older sister of actress/singer, Hilary Duff.
For a while, the sisters were inseparable. They always starred in movies together and wrote and sang songs together. Then, it seemed as though they stopped doing a lot of things together professionally. They started living low-key lives.
Haylie is still involved in the entertainment world, but she doesn't steal the spotlight as much these days. She is a mom who's focusing on family. She has acted in the past few years, but they were not blockbuster films. Haylie has expanded her brand and reached out to do things that she is passionate about.
Read on to find out what she has been up to recently.
13 Became A Mom
You can tell from her Instagram that Haylie loves being a mom. Most of her posts feature her daughters. Her daughter Ryan, with fiancé Matt Rosenberg, was born in 2015. Their second daughter, Lula Gray, was born in 2018. She was pregnant the same year as her sister, Hilary! Haylie admitted that she has a nanny for her kids, to make the work-life balance thing easier.
12 Is Engaged To Matt Rosenberg
Matt Rosenberg is a t-shirt entrepreneur. His company is called 'Subway Tile Shirts'. The company sells shirts that feature prints of NYC subway tile mosaics. They got engaged on April 1, 2014, and no, we're not kidding! The couple started dating in 2012 and have yet to set a date to get married. They are enjoying just being engaged. Now, with two kids, they probably don't have much free time to plan a wedding.
11 Still Finds Time For Girls' Nights
When you are living a life of hustle and bustle, between your relationship, kids, and work, it is nice to get out sometimes and have fun with your girlfriends. In this post, you can see her celebrating her friend Nicki's birthday, alongside Nina Dobrev and a lot of her entrepreneur friends.
10 Has A Cooking Blog
Aside from acting and designing clothes, one of Duff's passions in life is cooking. She started a cooking blog called "The Real Girl's Kitchen", where she could post all of the recipes that she has made for friends. She posts recipes of all sorts on there, from ones that are great for babies to heart-healthy ones.
9 Still Spends Time With Hilary
They may not work together that much anymore, but Haylie and Hilary will always be sisters...and always make time for each other. Both are now wives and mothers, so they have more to bond over. Haylie was there for Hilary through her divorce and will always be there to protect her, as older sisters do.
8 Got Her Own Cooking Show
"Real Girls Kitchen TV" was a show that was based on her website and aired on the Cooking Channel. It started in 2014 and went on for two seasons. She was the host of the show and she showcased recipes inspired by New York City and her hometown, Los Angeles. The show was nominated for a Daytime Emmy.
7 Released A Book
Along with the website and the show, Duff released a cookbook with the same name. Everyone's favorite recipes (plus new ones) are featured in this book. It covers everything, including breakfast, soups, salads, appetizers, snacks, and recipes for cheat days! Each recipe features a personal story from her life.
6 Created A Fashion Line
In 2017, Duff started her own fashion line called Little Moon Society. It was originally meant for babies and children but has now expanded into women's wear. Each piece is hand made out of eco-friendly material. Each piece is unique because all designs are individually dyed by hand.
5 "Deadly Delusion"
"Deadly Delusion" was the last movie Duff starred in, back in 2018. It was made for TV movie about a troubled woman who moves to Los Angeles with her new boyfriend. After settling into her new home, mysterious things begin to happen...and she becomes convinced her demons have moved with her.
4 Makes Time For Bestie, Ashley Tisdale
Duff and Tisdale have been friends for years. They went to a farmers market together on their day off and enjoyed each other's company. The two are so close that Duff even bought Tisdale's $2.6 million home in Studio City, California. We can only imagine how great of an aunt Tisdale is to Duff's daughters.
3 "Hacker"
"Hacker" is about a teenager who turns to online crime and identity theft to save his family from financial ruin...and soon garners attention from a dangerous hacker targeted by the FBI. The film was inspired by true events. It also starred Craig Stark and Dan Spector. The movie only grossed $60,000 at the box office.
2 Loves Disney
Who doesn't love Disney, honestly? Living in California has its perks because Disneyland is basically right in your backyard. She seems to take girls' trips there a lot with her daughters, who love Disney Princesses. Her daughters even got to meet the cast of "Frozen On Ice."
1 Has Three Adorable Dogs
Matt is surrounded by women. Even he and Haylie's three dogs, Birdie, Shelby, and Chicken, are women. They seem to be loved unconditionally by their owners. Shelby (bottom) is the eldest and is posted about a lot by Duff. She seems to hold a special place in her heart. Whether it is babies or dogs, we don't know if they will be expanding their family any time soon, but we are all for the adorable pictures.
