How many times has it happened that you think of an old show you used to love watching and wonder what the actors are doing after so many years? I guess many of you that have seen “Little House on the Prairie” and were eager to see each new adventure of the family living on the farm in Plum Creek near Walnut Grove, Minnesota, would love to know what the actors are up to these days.

Those fans who were fond of the actress playing Mary Ingalls, beautiful Melissa Sue Anderson, were convinced she would continue being part of their life through the small screens, but she had other plans.

Today, she speaks of her decision to leave Hollywood behind and move to Canada.

This actress started her acting career playing guest roles, and had her way into the showbiz when she became one of the central figures of “Little House on the Prairie.” Her acting brought her several nominations for Best Lead Actress in a Drama Series, and her fans knew she deserved it.

Speaking of her experience filming this drama that made her famous, back in 2010, Anderson told Pop Entertainment, “I’m lucky that there even was a character to play, because in the book, there isn’t much of one. Laura [Ingalls, author of the Little House novels upon which the series was based and the story was centered] was a quite older woman when she wrote the books. She was remembering the best of her life. The characters of Ma and Mary didn’t factor in a lot. There was a lot of Laura and Pa and Laura and Jack the dog and Laura and Mr. Edwards, but there wasn’t a lot of Mary. I’m fortunate that they discovered that I could act.”

She tried herself in other minor roles after Mary Ingalls, but then in 1990 she got married to television producer Michael Sloan and moved to Montreal in 2002 with her husband and their two children, daughter Piper and son Griffin.

In 2007, the family became Canadian citizens and with the new life came new commitments, so Anderson decided to let go of the showbiz because she wanted to spend more time with her kids and didn’t want them to feel pressured to pursue acting careers themselves.

In an interview with E-Talk, Anderson said, “I really stepped away for a long time. That was really for the kids so they would have their own sense of who they were as opposed to being with me.”

However, Anderson didn’t step back from acting completely, but took small roles over the recent years. Her life-changing experience of being part in a series like “Little House on the Prairie” encouraged her to write a memoir titled The Way I See It: A Look Back at My Life on Little House.

New alarming verdict on Prince George, Princess Charlotte, & Prince Louis amid Kate Middleton’s cancer diagnosis

With her public announcement of her cancer diagnosis, Catherine, Princess of Wales, put an end to the many theories and conjectures that had been making the rounds in the media ever since her scheduled abdominal surgery.

She stated in the video that tests performed by the doctors after her surgery revealed the malignancy. She went on to say that before telling the public, she and William needed some time to break the news to their kids.

Royal analysts surmise that Kate had a purpose in releasing the film on Friday at 6 p.m., as their kids’ school had already ended and they wouldn’t be confronted with inquiries about it right away from their peers.

A palace source told the Times, “George is ten now and can’t be shielded from any of this now.””He won’t be able to avoid it once it’s in the school playground and at the school gate.”

Grant Harrold, the former butler of King Charles, claims that when Kate and William informed the kids about her disease, they approached each child differently. He thinks that when they told Prince Louis about her health problems, the couple probably “sugarcoated” them.

Grant Harrold told the NY Post, “I’m sure it was a very difficult and very different conversation between children.””I’m sure the conversation with Louis was more sugarcoated than it was with George and Charlotte, for example.”

“The older children can understand more, so I’d imagine it was a little more frank but undoubtedly staying positive, which is so important,” the former butler went on.

This explains why you now cry when you see the photo of Kate with her three kids. It’s important for any mother to have that talk, and you can bet Charlotte and George will be there to support her.

Louis is too little to comprehend her mother’s situation, he continued.

It’s a challenging one. He told the NY Post, “I’m sure the kids will handle it as any kids would be expected to handle it, but I think that will rub off on the kids because their parents are very good at being calm and collected.”

The kids will spend Easter break with their parents at Anmer Hall on the Sandringham Estate, where they may go egg hunting and have fun.

Easter Sunday mass will probably be attended by King Charles and Queen Camilla, but not by the family.

Danielle Stacey, the royal expert for Hello! Magazine, stated, “It’s understood that King Charles may attend a church service on Easter Sunday with a smaller royal turnout if his health allows it.”

“As he continues his cancer treatment, Charles has minimized his contact with larger crowds to reduce risks,” the spokesperson added. “The King has performed for small audiences at Buckingham Palace, but he hasn’t gone to any major events since receiving the diagnosis, like the Commonwealth Day service, the Korean War Veterans’ reception last week, or the late King Constantine’s memorial in Windsor last month.”

About 110 miles outside of London is the Norfolk country estate known as Anmer Hall, where the Princess of Wales is believed to feel “most at home.”

She previously stated that she is happiest “outside in the countryside with my family.”

She would be creating Easter cakes with the kids, and they would be decorating them with Cadbury eggs.

Three years ago, it was said that the children surprised Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip with “personalized Easter eggs, which they made and decorated themselves.”Grandpa Charles and Step-Grandmother Camilla will probably get one of them this year.

As previously indicated, their parents host an annual Easter egg hunt in which George, Charlotte, and Louis will participate.

“It was a real treat because they don’t let George, Charlotte, and Louis have chocolate and sweets every day,” the insider told Us Weekly.

In addition to playing tennis and going on family bike excursions, George and Charlotte also enjoy taking horseback riding lessons. Charlotte shares her great-grandmother’s obsession for horses. It’s her preferred pastime.

For Kate, spending time with her kids has always been a blessing.

“She constantly says that having her family around helps her get through tough times, and the kids always make her day happier. The Us Weekly source continued, “She feels incredibly fortunate to have her children and a wonderful family.

Thus far, Prince George has not experienced any negative effects from royal news. However, it’s possible that his mother’s illness will, regrettably, be his first introduction to the responsibilities of being a member of the royal family.

According to royal analyst Sarah Vine, Kate Middleton and William are “lucky” that their kids are still “quite young,” as it would be more difficult to keep them safe from finding out about their mother’s diagnosis online if they were older.

“It’s imperative to attempt to manage the kids because they will undoubtedly have a lot of questions and it’s just really scary knowing that your mother is ill,” she said.

“Plus, kids on the playground are cruel, so it’s better that it’s not exposed to the kids on the playground just yet,” co-host Andrew Pierce continued.
