NOW: Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen

'Full House' Then & Now

The Olsen twins, now 26, have had the most success in the wake of “Full House.” The girls appeared in several films following their run on the show, including a series of musical mystery videos called “The Adventures of Mary-Kate & Ashley.” They took control of their multi-million dollar company, Dualstar, in 2004 and quickly became two of the wealthiest players in Hollywood. In addition to acting, the girls have made a mark on the fashion world with affordable clothing lines for young girls sold at Walmart and J.C. Penney, as well as two couture fashion labels, The Row and Elizabeth and James.

Mary-Kate continues to act regularly, with roles in movies like “Factory Girl” and “The Wackness.” She is currently dating Olivier Sarkozy, the half brother of former French President Nicolas Sarkozy, who is 31 years her senior.

Ashley remains focused on the fashion side of the Olsen empire. She has not appeared on film or in television since 2004’s “New York Minute.” The twins recently released a t-shirt line called “StyleMint.” —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo by Larry Busacca/Getty Images)
