📍 Bella Rowe is originally from Oxford, UK. As a child, she was sent to several boarding schools in New York City as a way to break her rebellious streak. It was unsuccessful, but did lead her into acting as a way to channel her energy. It was pure chance that led her to becoming successful.
📍 Met Jude Dubrow in 1989, and started dating him in 1991. They were married in Hawaii in 1992.
📍 Their relationship became widely publicized, which had heavy negative impact on their mental states. Both became addicted to heroin early into their time in the public eye.
📍 An unflattering article written about the couple in Vanity Fair implied that Bella was using heroin throughout her pregnancy, which led to Rebel being taken away by the department of children and families at birth and custody being awarded to her paternal grandparents for the first few years of her life.
📍 Between the years of 1995 - 2004, Bella was constantly photographed and publicized doing unflattering things, such as walking around NYC in the winter with no shoes on, falling down back stage at awards shows from intoxication, flashing late night TV show hosts on-air, and most notably crashing an MTV Movie Awards interview live on air, while Kurt Loder was interviewing Lina Sofia.
📍 Bella was famously caught shoplifting over $5,000 worth of merchandise at Saks Fifth Avenue in 2001. She was sentenced to three years' supervised probation, ordered to do 480 hours of community service and fined a total of $2,700. She was also ordered to pay compensation to Saks for the stolen items and undergo counselling.
📍 After being in and out of rehab for large portions of the early 2000s and undergoing years of counselling, Bella famously announced her Borderline Personality Disorder diagnosis on live daytime television, very casually, and then refused to continue on the topic.
📍 She and Rebel do not have a close relationship, as Rebel spent almost all of her life being raised by either set of grandparents.
📍 Rebel has never seen any of her mother's films, with the exception of Beetlejuice and Stranger Things.

📍 Born in Aberdeen, Washington.
📍 Was a great child until his parents' divorce when he was 9 years old, where early signs of defiance and depression began.
📍 Jude was homeless for parts of his early life after dropping out of high school. He became heavily interested in the budding music scene forming in Washington and spent years collaborating creatively with people until beginning to form his own bands.
📍 Jude's band is often credited as bringing Grunge music to the mainstream with the success of Smells Like Teen Spirit.
📍 Jude struggled to reconcile the massive success of his band with his underground roots and vision. He also felt persecuted by the media, especially in regards to his relationships and drug use.
📍 It has since been noted by former friends and bandmates that Jude was almost constantly high on some form of drug, and deeply enjoyed LSD and heroin. He was also a heavy drinker.
📍 He overdosed several times, and allegedly had several attempted suicides before being found dead from a self-inflicted gun shot wound on April 8th, 1994.
📍 Rebel never had the chance to meet her father.
