Applegate has weighed her options without acting in her life, landing to produce and “do a lot of voices to make a little money” to make sure her daughter, Sadie, “is fed, and we go home.”
Additionally, the three-time Primetime Emmy Award nominee has been spending a lot of time in bed, watching all the reality television shows he’s never seen. One show he avoids is his Netflix comedy that he says he hates to see himself struggle with. The “Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy” cast added:
“Also, I gained 40 pounds from inactivity and medication, and I didn’t look like myself, and I didn’t feel like myself.”
When he wandered off to watch the show – alone, he had to stop when it became too much to bear. Applegate eventually distanced himself “from my own ego, and realized[d] that piece of television is really beautiful. All the scenes I wasn’t in were really fun to see and experience for the first time.”
One thing Applegate doesn’t lack for is love and support, as she admits how much star Linda Cardellini has helped her. The actor described his friend as a “divine artist” who was “there, there for you, no matter what.”
Another thing that has helped her deal with her MS diagnosis is her humor. The Blast shared that the Young Artist Award winner told Kelly Clarkson:
“My armor of humor makes me ok. Um, but of course, on the inside, you feel that, and I do it a little bit to deflect it and make people not afraid to be around me.”
