Shannon Ashley Mitchell

Shay Mitchell, a Canadian actress with an Asian appearance, first became famous in the modeling field. Tired of camera flashes and endless search for a winning angle, she went into the acting profession, where she found real success after her role in the popular TV series Pretty Little Liars. The actress brilliantly reincarnated as a gay girl Emily Fields, who in 7 seasons won the hearts of millions of viewers and opened the way for Shay to further fame.

Shannon Ashley Mitchell was born on April 10, 1987 in the Canadian city of Mississauga. Father Mark Mitchell is of Scottish-Irish descent, mother Presiaus Garcia is a Filipino, a native of the island of Luzon. Both of the actress's parents work in finance. Besides Shannon, they have a son, Sean.

Little Shannon began to show creativity and desires almost from the cradle. At the age of 5, she told her parents that she wanted to sing and dance like her cousin Lea Salonga, a singer and theater actress. Mom took her daughter to a dance school, where she began to make progress and take first places in interschool competitions. By the way, being a big fan of Jennifer Lopez, Shannon got the nickname Shay Lo (by analogy with J. Lo), and then she just became Shay.

When the girl was 10 years old, the Mitchell family moved to Vancouver. Here she made her debut in the modeling business: at one casting, Shay was chosen by a large international agency. And soon the girl got her first advertising contracts.

Child models do not always grow into recognized beauties and beauties. But with Shay it turned out just like that: by her majority she turned into a real "Miss Exotic". A slender, tall (171 cm) brunette with olive skin and almond-shaped eyes, immediately after graduating from high school in West Vancouver, went abroad to work under a contract.

The girl gained modeling experience in Hong Kong, Thailand, Spain, after which she returned to Canada, deciding to make her childhood dream come true - to become an actress. Shay enrolled in acting school in Toronto and began her artistic career.

After signing a contract with the first agency, Mitchell began to receive tiny unnamed roles. She made her debut in the teenage series Degrassi: The Next Generation. In fact, the girl played herself: her heroine is a model in one of the episodes. She plays a similar role in the short film "Verona".

In 2010, the girl was given a role in the Disney series "The Real Aron Stone" about the adventures of superhero children. Shay played the cheerleader Irene Weber and lasted 4 episodes in one season.

In the same year, fortune gives Mitchell one of the brightest smiles: the aspiring actress was approved for the lead role in the new series Pretty Little Liars. True, Shay's heroine - Emily Fields - has an unconventional orientation. But Mitchell was not embarrassed. She gladly begins to work on the image entrusted to her.

The plot revolves around the life and adventures of 5 close friends: Spencer Hastings (Troian Bellisario), Hannah Marin (Ashley Benson), Aria Montgomery (Lucy Hale), Emily Fields (Shay Mitchell), Alison Dilaurentis (Sasha Peters).

The heroine Shea is the most emotional of the girls. Obedient and correct, she suddenly realizes that she is not attracted to guys at all. Em makes this discovery after meeting her neighbor Maya, they begin a relationship, but Maya dies at the hands of her ex-boyfriend. Emily is looking for new love and finds it in a completely unexpected way.

The show was watched by almost 3 million viewers. A youth TV series with a non-trivial plot, in which a detective, a thriller, and a melodrama were bizarrely intertwined, chained them to the screen for a long 7 years, although it was originally planned to release only 10 episodes.

Fans have lived with their favorite characters a lifetime and were very upset when the producers announced the closure of the project in 2017. As you might expect, Shay became "her" for the army of lesbian fans.

The success of the series made Mitchell a TV star. Since 2010, the actress has been periodically invited to various shows as a star guest: Punk'd, Project Runway, Live! With Kelly and Michael, Shay Mitchell: Chapters. The girl poses for glossy magazines, especially often in bathing suits that emphasize her seductive forms.

In 2016, the actress starred in two feature films. She played a small role in the directorial debut of Robert Schwartzman - the film "Dreamland". The tape was released in a limited edition and went unnoticed.

But the second film was for Mitchell the first work on the site with Hollywood stars. Julia Roberts, Jennifer Aniston and Kate Hudson play the main characters in "Horrible Ladies". In the center of the plot is the story of Sandy (Aniston), from whom her husband left and married a young Tina (Shay Mitchell). Now their kids spend a lot of time with their advanced stepmother, and Sandy doesn't like it at all.

In 2018, in the filmography of Mitchell, the main role on the big screen appears for the first time - in the chilling horror film "Cadaver". The heroine of the actress is a young pathologist Megan, who, after undergoing treatment for depression, for the first time takes over the night watch in the morgue, and then the inexplicable begins.

After her role in Pretty Little Liars, Shay Mitchell had to answer questions about her orientation and personal life more than once. To this, the actress replied that she did not want to hang labels on herself and any good person could become her girlfriend or boyfriend.

At one time, there were rumors about Shea's romantic relationship with her colleague on "Liars" - actress Sasha Peters. But soon the name of the actress's real companion became known - TV presenter and music reporter Matt Babel

On January 1, 2019, the star announced on Instagram that she had lost a child after suffering a miscarriage in 2018.
