India Eisley, the daughter of actress Olivia Hussey, has followed in her mother’s famous footsteps – becoming a bombshell movie star.
The gorgeous pair appear to have a strong relationship, as well as a strong resemblance, and career path.
Let’s explore India Eisley’s acting career and her relationship with her mother, Olivia Hussey.
India Eisley’s age and height
India Joy Eisley was born on October 29, 1993, in Los Angeles, California, to musician David Glen Eisley and actress Olivia Hussey. Her paternal grandfather was actor Anthony Eisley, and her maternal grandfather was Argentinian opera singer, Andreas Osuna.
She has two older half-brothers from her Hussey’s prior marriages, 49-year-old Alexander, whose father is American actor Dean Paul Martin, and 40-year-old Max, whose father is Japanese singer Akira Fuse.
According to CelebHeights, the 29-year-old is 5ft 3in tall.
India Eisley caught the acting bug from mom Olivia Hussey
Like her famous mother, India is an actress. She clearly caught the acting bug from Hussey because her first role was in the 2003 movie Mother Teresa, in which her mom played the titular character. The role was uncredited but she soon starred in the role of Martha, alongside her mom, in the 2005 horror flick Headspace.
India’s breakthrough role came in 2008 when she started working on ABC’s The Secret Life Of The American Teenager alongside Big Little Lies star Shailene Woodley and 80s screen queen Molly Ringwald.
She has since gone on to star in many mainly indie movies including Social Suicide, The Curse Of Sleeping Beauty, and Adolescence.
Eisley also starred in the TV series I Am The Night with Don’t Worry Darling star Chris Pine in 2019.

Oliva Hussey instilled self-worth in her daughter
In January 2019, India told PEOPLE Now that Hussey instilled ‘having a good sense of self,’ in herself and her brothers. She added that her mother is ‘very strong and resilient’ and ‘her best friend.’
The mother-daughter duo is clearly very close, as well as looking alike, and they have shared their love for each other on social media over the years.
In September 2022, Olivia shared an adorable snap of her and India and wished her a ‘Happy Daughter’s Day.’ She wrote: ” I love you with ALL my heart.”
Back in 2018, India shared a photo, featured in the Los Angles Times, of mom Olivia in the 1968 Romeo And Juliet. The caption, which was edited three weeks ago, now reads: “Incredibly proud to see my lovely ma in this week’s LA times, just above a supremely cool human.”
Olivia Hussey takes legal action against Paramount
According to Variety, along with her Romeo And Juliet co-star, Leonard Whiting, Hussey is reportedly suing Paramount for the inclusion of a nude scene in the 1968 film, when both actors were minors.
At the time of filming Hussey was just 15 years old, but her bare chest was on display in the film’s bedroom scene.
The suit alleges that the director Franco Zeffirelli — who died in 2019 — assured both actors that there would be no nudity in the film and they would wear flesh-colored undergarments, but allegedly in the final days of filming the stars were implored to film nude.
