Ashley—who has not appeared on the big screen since 2004’s New York Minute—adds, “I always looked at myself, even as a kid, as a businesswoman.”
According to Mary-Kate, she and her sister were groomed to be behind-the-scenes from a young age. “With what we were doing in business when we were younger, I don’t think it ever felt like we were actresses, because we spent so much more of our time not in front of the cameras, building a brand.”
