Debbie Reynolds and Carrie Fisher: Two of a Kind | 277

In honor of Mother’s Day, we're celebrating a mother-daughter duo unlike any other - Debbie Reynolds and Carrie Fisher. While these two “unsinkable” stars seemingly look - on the surface - like they couldn’t have been more different, they were a lot more alike than they liked to admit. Debbie and Carrie both became movie stars at the tender age of 20. And individually, they also endured a lot - all in the unforgiving glare of the Hollywood spotlight. There were high profile divorces, cheating scandals, drug problems, and mental health issues. But they both handled it with unflinching honesty and unfailing humor. Over time, their epic mother-daughter differences gave way to a real, loving bond in which they proved that together - they could get through anything.
