Who is Yellowstone actor Cole Hauser’s wife, Cynthia Daniel? She played Elizabeth Wakefield on Sweet Valley High with her twin, and was in Disney’s Cheaper by the Dozen remake with Zach Braff too
Actors Cynthia Daniel and Cole Hauser have been together for almost 30 years; Cynthia is mum to Ryland, Colt and Steely Rose, and donated her eggs to her twin after she got cancer
The couple began dating in the 90s and have welcomed three children in their 29 years together. Daniel, 48, an actress herself, says that Hauser, 49, is not that different from Dutton Ranch’s brooding foreman, Rip Wheeler.
“[Rip] really sits back and lets Beth be her and he doesn’t say much. With me, [Cole] is a little bit more honest,” she said while being interviewed on the red carpet at the Golden Globe Awards by Billboard last year. “But he’s a very strong man in person like Rip and very loving as well.”
Here’s everything you need to know about Cole Hauser’s wife, Cynthia Daniel.
She and her twin sister had their own TV show
Daniel and her identical twin sister Brittany began modelling at the age of 11 and appeared in commercials before they landed their own TV show, Sweet Valley High, in 1994, per People. The show was based on author Francine Pascal’s book series of the same name, and ran for four seasons until 1997.
In 1995, the twin sisters won Best Performance: Young Actress in a TV Comedy Series at the Young Artist Award for their portrayal of Sweet Valley High’s leading ladies Elizabeth and Jessica Wakefield.
She stepped away from acting to pursue photography
After Sweet Valley High ended, Daniel took a step back from acting to pursue photography. She has since established her own business, Five Arrows Photography.
