Molly Ringwald has described The Secret Life of the American Teenager as one of the worst work experiences of her career. The actor discussed the series while appearing on Tuesday’s episode of Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen.
Ringwald indicated that the production became particularly difficult because of one person on set. Her comments offer a candid look back at her time on the teen drama, which remains a notable part of her television work.
The discussion adds a more personal perspective to Ringwald’s reflections on her career after becoming an ’80s film icon. She did not present the experience as a positive one, identifying it among the most challenging projects she had worked on.
