Jennifer Tilly, known for her roles in “Chucky” movies and “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills,” has had a long and varied career in Hollywood. With an Academy Award nomination for her role in “Bullets Over Broadway” and a reputation for embodying characters who stand outside themselves, Tilly has also become a successful professional poker player.
Joined the Bravo series “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” in its current season, Tilly initially hesitated as she saw herself as a “real” actress and not a “real” housewife. However, she eventually embraced the role, bringing her humor and intelligence to the show.
From her humble origins to her impressive wealth, Tilly’s journey has been unconventional. She remains close to her ex-husband, the late Sam Simon, co-creator of “The Simpsons,” from whom she received a percentage of the show’s earnings in their divorce settlement. Her wealth has allowed her to own multiple homes, attend couture shows in Europe, and indulge in a love for expensive jewelry.
Throughout her career, Tilly has faced challenges and criticism but always persevered and refused to listen to naysayers. Now, in her role on “Real Housewives,” she continues to defy expectations and reinvent herself as a wealthy, glamorous, and humorous character on the show. Despite initially being labeled as “the rich one,” Tilly has embraced her role and proven that she is not just a character but the writer of the joke.
