Almost Forced to Stop Acting

The actress’ trip turned into a tragedy when she figured out that she picked up a bug during her trip. Moreover, it was the duck salad or a tin of tuna through which she picked up the bug. After several weeks, Ella felt pain in her stomach, and all of her leg parts including toes, and feet were swollen up.

Besides, when she finally was allowed to walk, she tried to join college and acting classes. But unfortunately, she had to stop learning due to her knee problems.

After a couple of unsuccessful tries, the actress managed to get a role after her health improved. Although she got the role, she was worried as she gained lots of weight due to lack of exercise.
