From Clash to Connection: Beverley Mitchell on Her Early Days with Jessica Biel
Let me tell you a story about how things weren’t always rainbows and butterflies for Beverley Mitchell and Jessica Biel. Early on during their time working together on the hit show "7th Heaven," the two had their fair share of disagreements. "We used to butt heads, and she would drive me absolutely crazy," Beverley revealed in an exclusive chat with Us Weekly at the BB Lifestyle luncheon at Ocean Prime in Beverly Hills on September 12. "There were times when I’d go home after carpooling with her from the set, and we’d be yelling at each other the whole way," she admitted with a laugh. But hey, life has a way of teaching us lessons, and as they both grew older, something magical happened.
The Evolution of a Lifelong Bond
As time passed, the two actresses not only grew as individuals but also as friends. "Jessica is one of the most talented, strong, and incredible women I’ve ever met," Beverley gushed. "I consider her like a sister. I don’t have any siblings, so she’s become that person in my life. I’ve officially adopted her, whether she likes it or not. She doesn’t have a choice!" Beverley joked, highlighting the deep bond they’ve formed over the years. It’s not just about them anymore—it’s about their families too.
Bringing the Kids Together
When it comes to blending their families, Beverley and Jessica make every effort to ensure their kids connect. "There are times when we try to arrange playdates, but let’s be real—it’s not easy," Beverley explained. "Between work, school, and everything else, life moves at lightning speed. Trying to coordinate with someone who travels as much as Jessica does adds another layer of complexity. But when we do manage to see each other, it’s always amazing. It’s like we pick up right where we left off," she said with a warm smile.

Beverley went on to express her admiration for Jessica, calling her "a unicorn" and crediting her for teaching her to embrace differences. "She’s been there for me through thick and thin, pushing me out of my comfort zone and being my rock when I needed her most," Beverley wrote in an Instagram post celebrating Jessica’s birthday. "She truly is the sister I always wanted—most of the time!"
