Lisa Whelchel
Today Lisa Whelchel works primarily as a motivational speaker, but she is also well known for her roles in The Mickey Mouse Club and in The Facts of Life. Welchel appeared in the 2012 edition of Survivor: Philipines, where she was adamant that her true celebrity identity be kept a secret from the rest of the contestants to avoid any bias or unwanted attention. Thankfully, most of her counterparts were too young to realize who she was!
Claudia Wells
Claudia Wells became famous when she featured as Jennifer in the Back to the Future films. When her mom was diagnosed with breast cancer Wells stopped acting for a while and didn’t appear in two sequels. We commend her for choosing her mother’s needs over her own and her career, but it was still a great shame that she had to drop out. In 2011 she returned to the industry and has had a few roles since then.
