One thing we all know about celebs is that their lives are lavish and glamorous, but for most of them, it wasn’t always that way. On the contrary, many of them had gone through tough life experiences and were forced to overcome numerous obstacles to get to where they are today.
Born Melody Ann Thomas, in Los Angeles, California, actress Melody Scott has had quite a career, but her best ever role remains that of Nikki Newman in the well-known soap opera The Young and the Restless.
Scott has been married to husband Edward James Scott and the two have three adopted daughters, Jennifer Scott, Elizabeth Scott, and Alexandra Scott.
Becoming a mother was something that helped Scott heal from the life she had as a child, which was far from the fairy tale she’s now living.
As a young girl, Scott suffered years of sexual and mental abuse under the guardianship of her grandmother who was supposed to raise her.
