American film actress and model Dannil Harris (full name Elta Dannil Graul) was born March 18, 1979. The girl’s parents, Edward and Deborah Graul, named her daughter after Elt in honor of her great-grandmother, but she always preferred to use her middle name - Dennil.
Carier start
The Graul family lived in Lafayette, Louisiana. Dannil's father was a well-known ophthalmologist, he spent all the time in the clinic, so that his mother was raising her daughter . When Dannyel was eighteen, she moved to Los Angeles with the consent of her parents to fulfill her cherished dream - to become an actress.
However, the girl had to start her career with work in advertising. Beautiful appearance of Daniel Harris, height, weight and figure parameters helped her to break through and come forward in a difficult modeling business. She was tall (170 cm) and slender. Dannil's weight was only 57 kg. These parameters corresponded to the best standards that a model should have. The selection was the most stringent. Soon, Dennil Harris, whose photos were sent to all modeling agencies, began to receive invitations from advertising companies. There were so many offers that the girl could not accept all of them.
The first test in the cinema
Dannil Harris made his film debut in the short film Clowning Clown, filmed in 2004 by director Chris Dowling. The role was small, but twenty-five-year-old Danneel felt like a real movie star. The girlfriends congratulated Harris and she almost became proud. Nevertheless, star sickness bypassed the aspiring actress, the girl remained modest and shy as before.
Then she took part in the television series "Judy", "For which I love you" and "Life to live." These productions helped Danneel feel in the acting environment. In 2005, Dannyle Harris got a role in the popular series "One Tree Hill", which lasted from 2003 to 2012. The character of Rachel Gatina, a poorly educated girl from a wealthy family, made the actress famous and attracted a lot of enthusiastic fans.
TV care
The producers of the series intended to extend the contract with the successful Harris, but she chose to shoot in a big movie and left the television project. It was a bold act, since most of the young applicants have been seeking participation in the series for years and, once having got on the set, they are trying hard to resist.
It was at that time that Dennil Harris, whose photo had already begun to appear on the pages of glossy magazines, began to receive invitations to participate in full-fledged film projects such as Light this Summer, Plan B, and Roommate. The main film of that time for the young actress was "Ten Inch Hero", because on the set of this picture she began a romantic relationship with Jensen Ackles, whom she met two years ago, on the set of the movie "Clowns in the Clowning".
Personal life
After “Ten-hero”, Dannyle Harris and Jensen Ackles became an inseparable couple. In November 2009, their engagement was announced. Six months later, Dennil and Jensen are married. The celebration on this occasion took place in Dallas, in a narrow circle of friends and relatives. After the wedding, the newlyweds returned to Los Angeles and continued their participation in the filming of the next film.
Dannyel switched to her husband's surname, which does not happen so often in the cinematic hierarchy - everyone values his own name. The couple lives happily, for seven years they have not had a single quarrel. In 2013, it became known that the couple was expecting a baby. This was another confirmation that Danneel and Jensen, one of the most representative and beautiful couples of Hollywood, live in love.
