Two weeks ago in Abbey Wood a driver deliberately swerved at & ran over a hijabi woman in broad daylight. (CW: the CCTV footage is terrifying.)
Mainstream UK media haven’t mentioned it once.
🕊️ She was 35 years old when she filmed Home Alone
She held dual Canadian & American citizenship
Had a rare condition called situs inversus (organs mirrored)
She had two sons, Matthew and Luke
Both of her sons, Matthew and Luke, pursued careers in film set related works and even worked with her on Schitt’s Creek.
Actively avoided turning her children into industry kids
Described motherhood as the only role she never wanted to improvise.
Stayed married to one partner for over three decades without public drama.
Rarely spoke about religion publicly despite Catholic upbringing.
Her younger sister, Mary Margaret O’Hara, is a respected musician and actress in Canada.
Worked as a waitress before joining the cast.
She played Kevin’s mom in Home Alone without ever being on set with the burglars as many scenes were shot separately.
Despite global fame, she’s known in Hollywood for being extremely private and avoids celebrity culture.

Catherine O'Hara has been a joy to behold and she will forever be a role model to both the older generations and to our kids who will watch Home Alone every holiday 🤍
Thank you very much Catherine. We will remember you and keep your memories fresh and evergreen in our hearts 🩶🤍
Cosmopolitan asks Sydney Sweeney if she ever intends to publicly state her political beliefs:
“No. I’m not a political person. I’m in the arts. I’m not here to speak on politics. That’s not an area I’ve ever even imagined getting into. It’s not why I became who I am. I became an actor because I like to tell stories, but I don’t believe in hate in any form. I believe we should all love each other and have respect and understanding for one another.”
