You might assume that Mariska Hargitay has led a blessed life. For over 20 years, she's starred as Detective Olivia Benson on NBC’s long-running series Law & order: SVU. She’s Hollywood royalty, the daughter of 1950s bombshell Jayne Mansfield and bodybuilder/actor Mickey Hargitay. But there’s much more to this TV icon than meets the eye. Hargitay lost her mother at a young age, and she spent years struggling to find steady work in the industry. But she’s grown to be a confident woman, and the tragedy from her childhood has been reshaped into a beautiful family life today. Here’s how Mariska Hargitay's head-turning transformation is stunning. #MariskaHargitay #Transformation #LawAndOrder Tragedy at a young age | 0:00 A lovely childhood | 1:17 UCLA enrollment | 2:11 Small roles on-screen | 3:03 Struggle with self-confidence | 3:50 Co-star on ER | 4:37 Law & Order: SVU | 5:39 Instant BFFs with Christopher Meloni | 6:52 Falling in love | 8:02 Transformed by motherhood | 8:59 Father's death left a hole | 9:59 Embraces her inner beauty | 11:01
