She is naturally a brunette and she has green eyes
She’s naturally blonde, dear, she said so few times. Her eyes I’m not sure, they are a mix of blue and green, so I guess both it’s fine.
No, dearie, she is not a natural blonde; look at her roots. I’m a natural dark blonde and my hair is lighter than her’s at the roots. Unless she wears colored contacts, she does not have blue eyes, it is obvious.
She’s a natural dark blonde, some blondes have lighter color than others, but if you look at the hair strand you’ll see blonde, but she obviously dye her hair to a lighter color, about her eyes color well I see them blue, and she doesn’t wear contacts.
No, she is naturally blonde. She’s stated it herself multiple times and you can she’s clearly blonde in many of her childhood pictures.
Her eyes are green. That’s one of my favourite things about her. She can’t have worn blue contacts through three separate, long-running TV shows. Her eyes are definitely green.
She is an AWESOME person?❤
