Doris Day
Net Worth: $200 million*
Year of Retirement: 1975
Where Are They Now: Deceased
We are all familiar with Doris Day because to the beloved 1953 film Calamity Jane, but despite her fame as an actress, Day’s life wasn’t always easy. Day, who had been married four times, discovered that her third husband and his business partner had wasted all of her funds from her acting days after she was left penniless following their divorce. Further damaging Terry Melcher’s reputation was the fact that he was her only child and was thought to have ties to Charles Manson. Day, however, had a strong commitment to animal welfare and spent the most of his time after retirement providing care for stray and abandoned animals. She even created one of the country’s first motels that welcomed pets.

Where Are They Now: Returned to acting and founder of The Honest Company
One of the most attractive performers on-screen during most of the 2000s was Jessica Alba, who played parts in romantic comedies, action movies, and science fiction films. When Alba became a parent in 2008, her priorities were significantly rearranged. According to Alba, she had always battled to escape the stereotype of being “the hot one” She stated that she wanted to “do something bigger” and that she no longer felt honest while she was acting. In order to provide non-toxic health and lifestyle goods to mothers and their children, she founded The Honest Company in 2012. The two most important things in her life right now are her brand and her family, but she still performs on occasion.
