The famous sisters turn 38 on June 13, 2024, and have truly grown up in the spotlight, joining the cast of Full House as Michelle Tanner when they were 6 months old, and going on to careers in movies, TV and fashion in the years that followed. "We remember small things," Ashley said of their early acting days on a 2010 episode of The Ellen DeGeneres Show. "I'm not sure if they're memories or old footage," added Mary-Kate.

The sisters said they would watch the show once in a while if a rerun crossed their screen, but it was most touching to know how much fans still care. "People who grew up with us are now having kids and their kids are watching it," Ashley said. "It's still relevant and that's amazing." 02 of 12 1991 Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen in 1991.
