Despite this, her natural charm and talent propelled her to fame in Hollywood, with standout roles in movies like <em>Sleepless in Seattle<\/em> and <em>You\u2019ve Got Mail<\/em>. At the height of her career, Ryan decided to take a break from acting to focus on her family. This decision came after her highly publicized romance with actor Russell Crowe, which garnered significant media attention before their eventual breakup. To avoid further complications, Ryan chose to step away from the spotlight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"706\" height=\"1000\" data-id=\"3100\" src=\"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/shutterstock_93598144-min.jpg.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3100\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/shutterstock_93598144-min.jpg.webp 706w, https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/shutterstock_93598144-min.jpg-212x300.webp 212w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 706px) 100vw, 706px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Ryan&#8217;s acting career began while she was studying journalism at the University of Connecticut and New York University, during which time she started appearing in commercials. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-3 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"781\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"3101\" src=\"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/GettyImages-1345724446-min-1.jpg.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3101\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/GettyImages-1345724446-min-1.jpg.webp 781w, https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/GettyImages-1345724446-min-1.jpg-229x300.webp 229w, https:\/\/pulsperry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/GettyImages-1345724446-min-1.jpg-768x1007.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 781px) 100vw, 781px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Her big break came with the lead role in <em>Innerspace<\/em>, where she met her future husband, Dennis Quaid.
