Former child star Kim Fields is reuniting with her The Facts of Life co-stars for the Lifetime movie You Light Up My Christmas. The former Real Housewives of Atlanta star plays Emma Simmons, a woman who returns to her hometown two weeks before Christmas. She’s saddened to discover that the once festive town has lost its bright spirit so she sets “the town ablaze with light again.”
And yes, she falls in love with an old flame. Facts of Life stars Lisa Welchel (Blair), Mindy Cohn (Natalie), Nancy McKeon (Jo), co-star. [More Lifetime movies streaming are always available.]
When not a TV or movie set, Fields is walking the red carpet. At the International Emmy Awards event, “Tootie” looked stunning in a Byron Lars dress made of lace and sequins that showed off the 50-year-old actress/director’s curves. Ten-time Grammy-winning singer Chaka Khan was impressed, she dropped a series of fire emojis.
Fields captioned the bathroom selfie above: “Mirror Mirror on the Wall… We’ll call this ‘Self Reflecting Fuel…..'”
You Light Up My Christmas premieres on Lifetime on Sunday, December 1 at 8 pm.
