I found this article while searching for something else. Patricia Heaton, who plays the wife in “Everybody Loves Raymond” is a mother of four, pro-life, and is thinking of adopting another child. My favorite quotes: “As a Christian, it will not be Barbra Streisand I’m standing in front of when I have to make an accounting of my life.” [link]
I can’t figure out if Heaton is still Catholic — she grew up that way, and she says she had a wonderful childhood. Still, even if she isn’t, it’s refreshing to see an unabashed pro-life viewpoint from a successful actress. In the same article are the pro-life views of Kathy Ireland, who makes her point quite forcefully to the pro-abortion Alan Colmes. It must anger the pro-abortion crowd to see a pro-life supermodel, since they love to portray pro-lifers as dowdy, repressed stooges of their hypocritical, snake-handling religious leaders.

FWIW Heaton is an Evangelical Presbyterian.
I think she was a Catholic and divorced her first husband. Maybe she left the Church over a misundertstanding? Hopefully, through the inspiration of priest-friends especially Father Frank Pavone of Priests for Life, she will return to the One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church. But thank God she is pro-life and is fighting against the pro-abortion establishment in the entertainment industry! Good for her!
