‘My dog, Finn, is my rock’
Amanda Seyfried started as a
model, aged 11, and went on to

and Mamma Mia!. The 33-year-

a dog, love and connection. It’s
irresistible to watch and see

When we meet her, she’s in hertwenties and she has a real sense

very happy since the birth of my
daughter. Motherhood changes
everything for the better. I love
being a mother.Can you relate to the bond
Eve has with Enzo the dog?
Definitely. My dog, Finn, an
Australian shepherd-border
collie, is my rock. He’s known
me all his life, and I don’t

husband, Thomas, it was really

What’s it like playing a young
woman with a serious illness?

my husband, ‘I’m a little anxious
about what it’ll feel like when
Eve gets sick.’ Very early on, my
husband said to Milo [Ventimiglia],BEHIND THE SCENES WITH best
