I play a character of Katie who um do you remember the Hand That Rocks the Cradle?

Young Hollywood

Oh, yeah. That's I totally remember the Hand That Rocks the Cradle vibe.

Nicky Whelan

Yeah. It's awesome. So it's kind of like that where I go and live with a family, but basically I had um sold my eggs when I was in my 20s and I'd had a a surgery that'd gone wrong, which meant I couldn't have children anymore. So then I go chase after all the families that bought my eggs and trying to find where my children are. And which you'd think would be okay, like sort of, not really. But But then when she finds that, she doesn't agree with the way the families are raising her so-called children, she gets a little nutty.

Nicky Whelan

It is. The last thing I want is for her to question either one of us. How old are your girls? They look just like you. Yeah, I get that all the time. She's not your daughter. This is your job. Yeah. To raise one of your kids and carry the other. You're hiding something.

Young Hollywood

Nicky Whelan

No. I don't even follow football here. And when I met him, I thought he was an actor cuz we were doing Instagram skits together. And I thought he was just an actor for the first month. I don't think he liked that very much cuz he wanted to sort of know that I know he's a football player. So I'm getting to know it now a little bit more, but he'd retired by the time we met. So.
