‘I’m truly grateful to God’
Jessica said, “I could have been a potential target for a predator, but luckily, I wasn’t. There were a few times when things felt uncomfortable, but they never escalated too much, thankfully. I’m truly grateful to God for this because many others haven’t been as fortunate, especially starting out young as I did. Having my mom (Catherine Jensen) with me all the time really made a difference.”

She also spoke about her over-three-decade career as an actor, and navigating the complex world of Hollywood as a woman. Jessica said, “I never let my guard down [as an actor]. I was always pretty tough, pretty in-your-face about it. I probably channelled more of that tough, masculine energy. When I look back at why I was probably so tough for so much of my life, it was probably just to safeguard myself from a lot of people.”
