Elaine Hendrix on Vegan Living, ‘Dancing With the Stars’, and Life After ‘The Parent Trap’

Elaine Hendrix on Vegan Living and Her Career

Actress Elaine Hendrix, known for her role as Meredith Blake in the 1998 remake of Disney's The Parent Trap, has come a long way since her days as a silver screen schemer.

In The Parent Trap, Hendrix plays the gold-digging, manipulative fiancée of Dennis Quaid's character, Nick Parker, earning her character a comparison to "Cruella De Vil" by Parker's twin daughters, Annie and Hallie, played by Lindsay Lohan.

While her movie character may have earned comparison to the antagonist in the animated classic 101 Dalmatians, the actress who played the twins' prospective stepmother in The Parent Trap is a far cry from the cruel cartoon character.

Hendrix has also appeared on Dancing With the Stars and is an animal advocate, with plant-based living fueling her body, mind, and career.
