The Ingalls family and their life on the farm in Plum Creek near Walnut Grove, Minnesota stole the hearts of many. Viewers were eagerly waiting for each new episode and each new adventure. “Little House on the Prairie” attracted millions of fans and many can’t help but wonder what some of their favorite actors from the show are up to nowadays.

The mom of the family, Caroline Ingalls, or as the children called her, Ma, was portrayed by Karen Grassle who was quickly dubbed America’s sweetheart. Even today, she is known as one of the most iconic American moms in TV history.

As she turned 80, Grassle still stuns with her beauty and acting, although she seemed to disappear from the screens for some time before she turned to her first love, Broadway.

Grassle studied at the University of California, but completed her acting education at the prestigious Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in London.

“That was one of the most exciting learning experiences of my life: the school was superb and we could go to the theater in London and see the finest actors and productions in the English language,” Grassle said, referring to her college life in the U.K.

She recalls how she went to an audition for a role she was looking forwards to get, and when she was turned down, she tried her luck with “Little House on the Prairie” probably not assuming back then that this role would help her shot to fame.

The show premiered on September 11, 1974 and lasted until 1983, but Grassle left it the year before. Producers tried convincing her to continue portraying Ma’s role but she didn’t accept the offer so the show was eventually canceled.

After appearing on stage for many years in classics such as “Cabaret” and “Driving Miss Daisy,” Grassle set up her own theater company. Then in 1994, she stared along Kevin Costner in Wyatt Earp.

Three years ago, Grassle were both uncertain and happy to answer to a challenge and try something completely different from what she has been doing her whole life so she accepted a role in the horror movie Lasso.

“Finally, my son tells me, “Oh just do it, Mom. You’ll have fun! You’ll run screaming in the night!” So, I said, “Okay, I’ll do it.” It’s a total change for me,” she said.

I’m sure this stunning actress still has a lot to offer, despite her age. She looks completely stunning and still takes our breath away.

Elon Musk Quietly Welcomed Baby No. 12, His Third with Neuralink Corp.’s Shivon Zilis, Earlier This Year

“Our relatives and friends are all aware. Regarding the arrival of his newest child, Musk stated, “‘Secret’ does not mean failure to issue a press release, which would be bizarre.”

Elon Musk just had a new child.

Earlier this year, the 52-year-old founder of Tesla secretly welcomed Shivon Zilis, the director of special projects at Neuralink Corp., into his family.

To Page Six, Musk affirmed the information. Regarding “secretly fathered,” it is likewise untrue,” he provided a statement to the publication. “Our family and friends are all aware.”

“It is not a secret if a press release is not issued, which would be strange,” the X Corp. owner continued.

As of right now, Musk’s youngest child’s gender and name are unknown.

Musk and his associates make an effort to keep their kids’ lives private.

Grimes, the mother of three of Musk’s children, posted a long message on X (previously Twitter) in September 2023 asking for privacy for her and the three children.

She also spoke about the current press that has focused on her co-parenting arrangement with the CEO of Tesla and the information that they secretly welcomed a third child, a son named Techno, not long after Musk welcomed his children with Zilis.

“Hey, I want to de-escalate the narrative at the moment, but I would prefer not to breathe any more life into this current press cycle,” the artist said.

Grimes went on, “I spoke with Shivon at length finally, which was long overdue,” in response to Zilis’ remarks.

She pleaded with supporters, saying that Zilis wasn’t to blame for their situation and urged them not to be upset with her. We are eager to become friends and raise the children together because we greatly appreciate one another.

In 2002, Musk and his first wife, Justine Wilson, welcomed their first child, a son named Nevada Alexander. At ten weeks old, the infant passed away from sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS).

Wilson then used IVF to create twins Vivian Jenna and Griffin in 2004, and in 2006, triplets Kai, Saxon, and Damian were born.

In May 2020, X Æ A-Xii, Musk and Grimes’ first child together, was born.

Then, in November 2021, he discreetly welcomed the twins, Azure and Strider, with Zilis. A year later, Grimes told Vanity Fair that she and Musk received a daughter, Exa Dark Siderael, via surrogate in December 2021.

The tech titan’s third child with Grimes, a son named Techno Mechanicus, also known as “Tau,” was born, as reported in journalist Walter Isaacson’s 2023 biography of Musk. This was the first announcement of the birth of Musk’s youngest child.
