Daniela Ruah shared a heartwarming photo with her “beautiful” mother on Instagram, celebrating her mother’s birthday. In the picture, the mother-daughter duo posed in front of a pier, with Daniela wearing a rust-colored shirt and color-blocked cardigan, and her mother, Caterina, dressed in a forest green velour top with a matching sunhat.
Caterina expressed her gratitude in the comments, saying, “Many thanks! I love you to infinity and beyond.” Fans flooded the comments with the Spanish adjective “linda,” meaning “beautiful.”
Daniela, known for keeping her personal life private, previously traveled to Portugal with her husband, David Paul Olsen, and their two children. She shared photos from their family trip, showcasing Portugal’s beautiful beaches, historic districts, and even a culinary class where the kids learned to make traditional Portuguese desserts.
Upon returning, Daniela joined fellow NCIS stars on the picket lines amid the ongoing Hollywood writers’ strike. In a video montage, she expressed gratitude for the family time, friends, beach, and amazing experiences in Portugal.
Brian Dietzen, who plays Jimmy Palmer on NCIS, also took to social media to share his perspective on the strike. Reflecting on his journey since being cast on the show in 2003, he emphasized the importance of union protections and fair deals for the cast. He expressed love for his co-stars and pledged to return to the stage to do what they do best once a fair agreement is reached.
