Holly Marie Combs

Holly Marie Combs Ryan (born December 3, 1973) is an American actress and producer. She gained recognition for her roles in popular TV shows such as Kimberly Brock in CBS series Picket Fences (1992–1996), Piper Halliwell in The WB series Charmed (1998–2006), and Ella Montgomery in Freeform series Pretty Little Liars (2010–2017). Combs was born in San Diego, California, and is of Irish descent. Despite her parents' early marriage, they split up after two years as they felt they were too young. As a child, Combs experienced an accident where she fell and hit her head, resulting in a noticeable 'split' on her right eyebrow. Combs and her mother later moved to New York City when she was seven.
