Yesterday, Aloma and I went to our first movie in two years to see “Redeeming Love,” a movie based on the novel by Francine Rivers. My granddaughter, Abbigal Cowen, played the lead role of Angel, a prostitute. We think she did an amazing job.
Even before high school, Abbey loved the theater and modeling. Her mom helped her get an agent and she got numerous modeling contracts and saved her money to one day go to Hollywood. She appeared in every high school play, usually earning the lead role.
After high school, she left for Hollywood, and got several roles in television series, including “Sabrina, The Teenage Witch,” and “Fate,” a very popular Netflix series. She completed filming the second season of “Fate” in Ireland last fall. Her dream came through. She was cast as Angel in Redeeming Love and left for South Africa for the filming.
My daughter, Leslie, chaperoned Abbey on trips all over the world until Abbey turned 21. She and her husband Andy were with Abbey for the grand opening last week in Hollywood.
Aloma and I were uncomfortable at times watching my little granddaughter, now an adult, play the role of a prostitute. But we are so happy that Abbey is living her dream.
