It all started on September 10, 1996 in Columbus, Ohio: the day Mary Kate’s parents thought would be the beginning to a wonderful journey. The “happy” family of five got the heck out of Ohio just short of a year after Mary Kate was born. LaGrange, Illinois was the next destination, and if living with two older brothers didn’t toughen her up enough, her parents decided to challenge her with three more annoying siblings to test her patience.

As of now, she is finally satisfied with her chaos-filled life.
