A former star of noughties TV series Lost has barely aged 20 years after the show hit screens.
From 2004 until 2010, Emilie de Ravin played a plane crash survivor called Claire Littlejohn in Lost.
The science fiction adventure drama series aired over six seasons and followed the survivors of a commercial jet airliner flying between Sydney and Los Angeles, after the plane crashed on a mysterious island somewhere in the South Pacific Ocean.
After the show concluded, the actress went on to play Belle in Once Upon a Time, a Russian agent in the 2013 miniseries Air Force One Is Down and most recently, in Australian drama series True Colours.
Born in Melbourne, Australia, Emilie studied ballet and was home schooled before being accepted into the Australian Ballet School when she was 15.
She then studied acting at the prestigious National Institute of Dramatic Art, before being cast in her first major role as Curupira in the TV series Beastmaster.
One month after moving to Los Angeles at the age of 18, she was also cast in the teen TV series Roswell.
During her time on Lost, she also starred in the movies The Hills Have Eyes, The Perfect Game and alongside Robert Pattinson in Remember Me.
She also appeared in episodes of NCIS and CSI: Miami.
Although she hasn’t been seen on screen in two years, Emilie stays active on social media, with recent posts showing how little she’s aged since starring in the hugely popular series.
Now aged 42, last month she shared some selfies on Instagram with her former Once Upon A Time co-star Robert Carlyle, who played Rumplestiltskin.
Not long after, she also posted a sweet birthday message to EastEnders star Sean Maguire, who starred as Robin Hood in the same fantasy series.
‘No clue where we are here, or where we are going!… but I do know it was probs fun cos I was with you, and we always have a good time. Happy Birthday my friend! Love ya xoxo (from me, and my weird hand in this pic,’ she captioned the post.
Away from screens, Emilie is a mum-of-three.
In 2014, she began a relationship with American writer-director Eric Bilitch, with the couple announcing their engagement two years later.
They have three children: two daughters, born in March 2016 and August 2023, and a son born in December 2018.
Lost is streaming on Disney Plus.
