Where is the sister from Even Stevens now 26 years after show's premiere
We've seen over the years that child actors can go on to have varied levels of success but the sister from Even Stevens has found her passion away from acting.
Disney Channel kids in particular have had some peculiar paths, whether it's Zendaya reaching international levels of stardom in the world of acting, or Jake and Logan Paul sadly finding money and fame from slightly more unscrupulous means.
There's also those who struggle when they reach adulthood, with Amanda Bynes looking completely different from her days filming classic chick flicks such as She's The Man.
If you're of a certain age like me you might remember Even Stevens, which of course gave us an early introduction to Shia LaBeouf, who is of course still very famous and not just for the meme of him clapping in a cinema.

His sister in the show, Christy Carlson Romano, has gone down a different route, as she's now rather famous on Instagram, boasting close to a million followers.
The 42-year-old, who was also the voice of Kim Possible, has also recently published a book detailing her life as a former child star, called Once Upon a Trainwreck.
One topic that may well feature in the former child star's memoir is her experiences with cancer, having undergone a positive cancer screening earlier this year.
Posting at the time, she wrote: "The other day I took this cancer screening," she explained, before tearfully revealing that while her husband's results had come back negative, hers hadn't.
"I got the results back a little bit before filming down in Florida [last December]," she said, pausing for a moment, before adding: "Mine did not come back negative.
"So basically what that means is, I may have stageable cancer."
She also revealed that the death of James Van Der Beek had inspired her to go for that cancer check-up, following his tragic death from bowel cancer at the age of just 48.
Romano added: "I was able to meet James Van Der Beek a bunch. His family is amazing, he was a pillar of our community in Texas.
"They were always raising money for the most amazing charities and... he's not with us any more, which is why I got this test."
It's hard to believe that it's been 26 years since Even Stevens first started but unlike her on-screen brother, it seems as if Romano has largely managed to avoid controversy as she progressed into adulthood.
However, as her book will delve into, the former actor did have to spend a lot of time finding herself.
