They look alike but I wasn't aware Laurie had a child when she was in the first seasons of 'Roseanne.' I only knew about her second husband who appeared on Roseanne with her and I believe they had a child or two together. Didn't know she had a child before that.
shareMe neither! I watched Young Sheldon for months and marveled at the casting of Mary Cooper. I kept thinking that she looked like a younger Laurie Metcalf until someone here pointed out to me that she was her daughter.
shareShe was born in 1983 so she wouldn't have been pregnant in the first season of the show. One of her other pregnancies was written into the show though in one of the later seasons.
shareWhat's kind of strange and funny I guess, but for the longest time I thought she was a boy in drag in that 'Roseanne' episode 'All About Rosey,' where she once again plays a young Jackie. Since D.J. was in drag playing Roseanne and John Goodman was in drag playing the gypsy foretune teller, she looked like another boy doing a drag act of Jackie. I only noticed it was her when I looked up the credits for that show on IMDb.
