You probably know her from iconic Disney series and films like Good Luck Charlie, Wizards of Waverly Place, and her leading role in the Disney original Lemonade Mouth.

Bridgit also had a musical career take off during her time acting with Disney, releasing an album called Hello My Name Is… which featured the absolute banger Ready Or Not.

Then, after a few cameo roles in shows like Nashville, Bridgit seemed to step out of the spotlight.

It looked like she had left the limelight behind for good, but nobody could have predicted what she was actually getting up to.

Now we know that the Washington D.C native was focusing heavily on education; and she didn’t stop at a Bachelors or a Masters.

Bridgit was behind the scenes, achieving a PhD in MIT, a JD from Harvard Law School, and preparing to set up a brand new space business.

No, really.

This year, Bridgit Mendler has become the CEO and co-founder of a satellite data company called Northwood Space. Wild!

Bridgit told CNBC that the startup will act as a “data highway between Earth and space.”

We’re not entirely sure what that means, but it sounds impressive!

On top of this surprising revelation, Bridgit also revealed that she has also secretly adopted a little boy!

Bridgit took to Twitter to announce that she is a proud new mom to a four year old she started fostering in 2021 with husband Griffin Cleverly.

Wow. Who would’ve known that Bridgit would’ve turned out to be such a legend? Twitter is of course having a field day with the news, as fans are shocked to learn what she’s been up to.

We really can’t blame them.
