Rachel Miner is an American actress best known for her roles in Woody Allen’s “Alice” (1990) and the CW television series Supernatural. Born on July 29, 1980, Rachel knew from an early age that she wanted to be an actress, which is no surprise since she comes from a show business family.

Rachel is the third generation of Miners to get involved in the game. Rachel’s father, Peter Miner, is an Emmy-winning acting director and coach while her mother Diane is a writer, director, and coach. Her grandparents Worthington Miner and Frances Fuller were producer/director and actress, respectively. All of Rachel’s siblings are involved in film, television or/and theater.

Beginning her career as a child actress, Miner’s first role was as young Alice in Woody Allen’s Oscar-nominated film Alice (1990). While playing a 12-year-old Alice, Rachel was only 9 at the time. On the small screen, she played the recurring role of Michelle Bauer on Guiding Light from 1990 to 1995. Rachel earned a handful of nominations for her role and won the Young Artist Award for Best Young Actress in a Daytime Series ( 1992 and 1994).

Bully (2001) is another notable Miner film which won her a Stockholm Film Festival award for Best Actress, The Black Dahlia (2006) and Penny Dreadful (2006). On the small screen, Miner is known for her recurring role on Californication (2007 – 2008) and Supernatural (2009 – 2013) where she played Meg Masters. Rachel has made some notable theater appearances. At age 14, she appeared in Laura Cahill’s Naked Faith: The Way at Naked Angels in New York (1994). Her Broadway debut was in Wendy Kesselman’s adaptation of ‘The Diary of Anne Frank’ (1996/97).

Rachel Miner Married / Relationship with Macaulay Culkin, divorce, children

Miner was in a relationship with Home Alone star Macaulay Culkin. In 1998, the couple announced their engagement and married the same year. Unfortunately, their union was short-lived. Two years after tying the knot, Miner and Culkin separated in 2000 and finalized their divorce in 2002.

Paul Bloch, spokesman for Culkin, declared the divorce; “It’s very friendly and they remain best friends.”

Another source suggested that the disagreement with their union could have been the reason for their separation. “They were really in love and everyone was against it, especially the parents. But it was a crazy time, and they just did it,” the source said.

Miner also spoke to the media about her marriage saying, “At the end of the day, marriage was a choice made with our hearts, not our heads.”

Miner’s marriage to Culkin was her first. The marriage produced no children.

Following his split from Culkin, Miner briefly dated Bully co-star Brad Renfro in 2000. Renfro later died in 2008 at age 25 from a heroin overdose. He left behind a child named Yamato Renfro whom he had with a Japanese woman.

Since splitting from the late Renford, Rachel has kept her romantic life out of the public and media spotlight.

What is Rachel Miner doing now?

Rachel has been absent from the scene since 2013. His last major gig was in Supernatural. Miner had to leave her role due to the multiple sclerosis she suffered from. She was diagnosed with the disease in 2010. The condition had become worse that she could no longer actively portray the character.

Since then, Rachel manages the disease. Although she got better, Miner chose not to return to performing, shifting her energy instead to supporting and campaigning for various causes.

Rachel recently launched her own Stands campaign called ‘Be The Clarence’. Its merchndise theme reads, “Be the Clarence you want to see in the world.”
