Ben Stiller’s daughter, Ella Stiller, revealed that the pressures she felt as a young actor fueled years of anxiety and depression. The Driver’s Ed actress, 23, spoke with Next Gen NYC star Gia Giudice on her Causal Chaos podcast Monday, reflecting on how her early exposure to the entertainment industry shaped her mental health. “Growing up, there was a lot of sadness and loneliness,” she said, adding that she now recognizes “how anxious I was all the time.” Ella told Giudice that starting medication “changed [her] life,” and helped her reach what she described as “an amazing place now.” E! News noted that Ella has spoken in the past about challenges tied to her parents’ busy work schedules. But she said her relationship with them has grown stronger, adding that she now feels supported and understood at home. Ella is one of two children Ben Stiller shares with his wife, Christine Taylor, alongside their younger son, Quinlin.
