Many of us watched the television show Bewitched as children. We would have seen it when it first came out if we were old enough, but we would still enjoy seeing it again years later.
It was a popular sitcom in the 1960s that followed the lives of a mortal, a witch, and a married couple. Tabitha Stevens, a young child star, was another group member that was a pleasure to witness.
Tabitha resurfaced on the scene around the age of 60, however many people were not really interested in what happened to her after the program ended. Based on her present situation and her experiences, she is a star whether or not they are seen on television.
In the 1960s, television introduced us to a wide range of characters. These programs, like Bewitched, had amazing visual effects and wonderful humor for the period.
The young child that was cast as Elizabeth Montgomery and Agnes Morehead’s daughter, Tabitha Stevens, was only three years old at the time.
She had a twin sister, just like many other child stars, and the two initially played the same role. But in the end, the part was played by just one woman.
She would stay with the show until its end in 1972, making appearances in roughly 100 episodes. She asserted that she was among the most well-known kid performers in Hollywood at the time.
She worked on the show and costarred with Ronald Reagan in a detergent commercial. Other young stars that emerged during that time were Jodie Foster and Helen Hunt.
She returned to her normal life after living in Hollywood till she was eight years old. She would attend Girl Scout camp, become a cheerleader, and go to Los Angeles only if she was guaranteed a job.
“It wasn’t difficult for me,” she remarked. I kept on performing and even declined gigs. Moving away from that was comparatively easy for me. I think a lot of it stems from the fact that I left the company before it expelled me.
In the end, she chose to pursue a totally different line of work. She married Terry Rogers in 1984 and had a child. She lived a life away from the glitz and glamour of Hollywood once they moved to Arizona.
After five years of marriage and the birth of two boys, they were divorced. At that time, she moved back to California to raise her kids.
She would eventually remarry, this time to Eric Eden. In 1998, she and the rock musician got divorced, but they still had a son named Clark. Then she went back to California.
She married Darren Dunckel just two months after they first met in 1998. Together, they had three children, making her a mother of six.
“It’s a lot of fun,” she said. It’s an exciting but wild life. I’m frequently asked if I’m a Mormon. I’ve always wanted a big family because I only have one sister and I grew up believing that “The Brady Bunch” was the greatest program. But a boy and a girl would have been the perfect size for my family. I might have stopped at three or earlier if I had a girl, but I wouldn’t alter a thing.
She has no regrets about staying away from Hollywood to raise her kids since she loves being a mother. Although she admits that she frequently receives screenplays, she hasn’t found any that are interesting enough to work on for twelve hours a day.
“Before Parker was born, I made contact with autism charities, and after he was diagnosed, it became my top priority,” she said. I volunteer and go to board meetings. I give speeches on a variety of occasions. Being accessible to other parents with inquiries is crucial, in my opinion.
She likes the chance to give back and has always loved helping.

Not one of her children wants to follow in her famous footsteps just yet. We are thrilled that she has found her passion, and if she ever chooses to perform again, we would be delighted to have her back.
