Hayley Mills’ Financial Status

Hayley Mills, daughter of the esteemed actor Sir John Mills and screenwriter Mary Hayley Bell, emerged in the film industry at a young age of 12 after being spotted by J. Lee Thompson. She landed her breakthrough role in the well-received movie “Tiger Bay” (1959), stepping into a part originally meant for a boy. Following this success, Mills was personally picked by Lillian Disney to play the lead in “Pollyanna” (1960), an endeavor that earned her a special Oscar alongside Laurel and Golden Globe Awards. Subsequently, she showcased her talent in “The Parent Trap” (1961), portraying twin sisters, which garnered her a Golden Globe Award nomination and solidified her financial standing.

Seizing this momentum, Mills continued appearing in Disney productions, securing nominations for prestigious accolades due to her roles in films such as “Whistle Down the Wind” (1962) and “Summer Magic” (1964). She swiftly rose to the summit of child stardom. Despite Disney opting not to renew her contract in 1966, Mills delved into comedy with Ida Lupino’s “The Trouble with Angels” and later on returned to England for adult roles in movies like “The Family Way” (1966). Although a scene showing her bare buttocks in this movie sparked controversy, Mills went on to feature in several other films like the psychological thriller “Twisted Nerve” (1968), the comedy “Take a Girl Like You” (1970), and the horror-crime flick “Endless Night” (1972).

In 1987, Mills headlined the youth series “Good Morning, Miss Bliss” on the Disney Channel, which unfortunately faced premature cancellation after just thirteen episodes. She decided to retire from acting in 1990, having amassed substantial wealth. Despite a brief foray back into British cinema, she also ventured into stage performances, including a tour in Australia with “Legands!”.

On the personal front, Mills tied the knot with director Roy Boulting in 1971, who was 30 years her senior. Their union bore a son named Crispian in 1973, later to become the frontman of the rock band Kula Shaker. Following her divorce in 1977, Mills engaged in a relationship with British actor Leigh Lawson from 1975 to 1984, resulting in another son, Jason, born in 1976. Since 1987, she has been in a partnership with Indian-American actor Firdous Bamji. In 2008, Mills faced a battle with breast cancer but successfully overcame it through surgery and alternative treatments.
