🎭 📽️ Simon Ward 📽️🎭 Personal Note: Simon Ward was a British actor that came from very humble beginnings. His mom was the one in the family that dreamed of being an actress but never got that big break. She passed that dream on to her son, who, armed with stunning good looks & charm, forged his way into an acting career.
