Alison Doody spent her childhood with two older siblings in her hometown, where she was raised by her father, Patrick Doody, who was a businessman, and her mother, Joan Doody, who worked as a beauty therapist. She went to Mount Anville Secondary School.

Before she started her career as an actress, Alison worked briefly as a model. However, in 1985 she was spotted by the casting director of a James Bond film, so she made her debut appearance at the age of 18 in the supporting role of Jenny Flex in the film “A View To A Kill”, becoming the youngest Bond girl, which marked the beginning of an increase of her net worth as well as her popularity. In 1987, she appeared in several film titles, including the role of Siobhan Donovan in “A Prayer For The Dying”, and starring as Debbie in “Harry’s Kingdom”. However, her major success came in the following year, when she was chosen to play Caroline Nolan in the TV mini-series “Echoes”, and Alessandra Castorina in another TV mini-series entitled “Campaign”. Alison also starred as Charlotte in the 1988 film “Taffin”, and during the next year she featured in the role of archaeologist Dr. Elsa Schneider in the film “Indiana Jones And The Last Crusade”, starring with Sean Connery and Harrison Ford, which added a considerable amount to her net worth.

In 1991, Alison was chosen to portray Gina Heidemann in the TV mini-series “Selling Hitler”, which was followed by the role of Lady Caroline Faye in the TV film “Duel Of Hearts”, the same year. By the end of the decade, she only had one more significant appearance, in the 1994 film “Major League II”, playing Flannery, which contributed a lot to her wealth.

Alison’s first role in the new millennium came in 2003, when she appeared as herself in the comedy film “The Actors”, after which she guest-starred in several titles, such as “King Solomon’s Mines” (2004), “Benjamin’s Struggle” (2005), and “Waking The Dead” in 2007. Two years later, she was selected to play Lucille in the TV series “The Clinic”.

To speak further about her acting career, Alison also appeared as Pam in the TV series entitled “Beaver Falls” (2011-2012), and most recently she was cast in two film titles – “Brother” (2016) as Grace, and “Division 19” (2017) as Neilsen. She is currently filming “The Rapture”, so her net worth will certainly increase.

Speaking about his personal life, Alison Doody was engaged to Tadhg Geary from 2014 to 2015. She was previously married to Gavin O’Reilly (1994-2006), with whom she has two daughters. After that, she dated Douglas De Jager from 2011 until his death in 2012.

#Quote
1I want to do so much more, not huge budget films necessarily, but I just want to play different parts and I only want to do the stuff that I want to do. I don't want to work just for the sake of working. Generally, if a good script comes in I read it and if it appeals to me, it appeals to me. And it doesn't have to be anything -- it doesn't have to be the main character, it doesn't have to be a huge part. It could be a nice cameo -- anything that I think is good and surrounded by good, enthusiastic people.
2I try not to take myself too seriously, but I do take my work seriously.
#Fact
1Is one of a number of actors to be photographed by Claire Newman-Williams, including Thomas Longley, Ben Barnes, and Adam Garcia.
2Has two daughters with Gavin O'Reilly: Alanna (born 1996) and Lauren (born 1999).
3She turned down star-making roles that went to Nicole Kidman in Days of Thunder (1990) and Sharon Stone in Basic Instinct (1992). Later, she also refused a part in the Lord of the Rings trilogy.
4Director Peter Jackson personally offered her the role of "Éowyn" in The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers (2002) and The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003), but she declined due to her impending pregnancy, which wouldn't have worked with the 18-month on-location production the movies required. The role eventually went to Miranda Otto.
5She has been presented with the Prince's Trust Award for Charity, for her constant and generous support to children in need.
6Has played opposite three Bond actors in three different movies. She had a cameo appearance in A View to a Kill (1985) in which she shared a scene with Roger Moore, she played Pierce Brosnan's girlfriend in Taffin (1988) and starred along with Sean Connery in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989).
7In 2000, she settled a libel action against the Mirror Newspaper Group of Dublin in Ireland, following the publication of a 1999 press article that erroneously claimed she had appeared nude or partially nude on screen. Before the case was due to get underway, a settlement was agreed and Edward Walsh for the Irish Mirror read an apology to the High Court, saying that it was quite untrue that she had ever appeared nude or partially nude in her film roles. He also stated that it is a well-known fact that throughout her career she has always adamantly refused to participate in scenes involving nudity, and that this refusal has cost her the loss of many lucrative roles. The Irish Mirror paid damages, although the actual amount is unknown. Miss Doody told the media that she was quite happy that it was over, and that her good name had been vindicated.
8Once lived in a £1.95 million, 10,000 square feet house overlooking the sea at Dalkey, one of the wealthiest and loveliest suburbs of Dublin, on the central east coast of Ireland.
9Neighbour was the well-known singer, Enya.
