Biography

Clementine Ford was born to actress Cybill Shepherd and her first husband, David Ford, in Memphis, Tennessee in 1979. Her parents divorced when she was still a baby, and Cybill went back to California to restart her acting career, becoming a celebrated television star on Moonlighting (1985). She also had a brief second marriage to Bruce Oppenheim, giving birth to twins Ariel Ladensohn and Zachariah Oppenheim. Cybill also paid for Clementine's father to move to California and for his bartending lessons, so he and Clementine can have a close father-daughter relationship, which continues to this day. Since Clementine grew up with a famous actress, she dreamed of an acting career, making her debut on her mother's other show, Cybill (1995), in 1997. She was named Miss Golden Globe in 1998, a title bestowed upon off-spring of famous actors. Clementine wasn't happy with her acting, so she enrolled in acting classes, where she met her first husband, actor Chad Todhunter. They divorced a few years later. Clementine made several guest appearances, playing daughter to her real-life mother on The L Word (2004), from 2007-2009. After that, she moved on to the daytime soap opera, The Young and the Restless (1973), and was there, for a contract role as "Mackenzie", for one year. Clementine also entered into a relationship with musician Linda Perry. When that ended, she married her second husband, actor Cyrus Wilcox, in 2013 and gave birth to a son, Elijah Wilcox, in 2014, and a daughter, Welles Wilcox, in 2016. She maintains a blog and continues to act, such as when she appeared in a play written by her half-sister, Ariel.

(on having a famous mother) It was horrible. I had friends in high school who wanted to have sex with my mother. I'm not going to blame her for being beautiful - but it's still gross.

When I started out I had a manager who used my mom's name to get me auditions and I couldn't act my way out of a paper bag that was open at both ends. I had never even taken an acting class. I blew so many opportunities. I've spent years trying to get back in those same doors going, 'I can act now!'
