Haley Lu Richardson

Haley Lu was raised in Phoenix, AZ by right-brained creative parents, Valerie (graphic designer) and Forrest Richardson (golf course architect). She attended Villa Montessori school where she was encouraged to think outside the box and find self-motivation. She then went on to graduate from Arcadia High School in the top 10% of her class. She was a member of Cannedy Performing Arts competitive dance company for 8 years and trained a minimum of 20 hours a week. During that time she was bestowed prestigious titles within the dance community such as 'National Dancer of the Year" and the 'Peoples Choice Award' at the Young Artist's competition.

Her innovative upbringing and significant background in dance propelled Haley Lu to move to Los Angeles at the age of 16. Since her move, Haley Lu has played unique and contrasting roles on television and film. Richardson's range has been recognized by awards for her breakthrough performances.

In the 2015 Sundance hit, "The Bronze," Haley Lu whips out some of her dance skills and joins the Duplass brothers and the hilarious cast of Melissa Rauch, Sebastian Stan and Gary Cole in a dark comedy set in the world of gymnastics. She can next be seen on the big screen in the teen drama/comedy, "Besties" alongside Hailee Steinfeld and Woody Harrelson and in M. Night Shyamalan's newest thriller, "Split".

Haley Lu Richardson Biography

Born: March 07, 1995

HALEY LU RICHARDSON

Date of Birth: March 7, 1995

Haley Lu Richardson was a driven child. Raised in Phoenix, Arizona, she started doing gymnastics at a young age, then moved on to dance by the age of eight. She spent almost ten years as a competitive dancer, during which time she also played roles in community theater. By the time she was 16, she was so anxious to begin a professional career that she dropped out of high school and moved to Los Angeles. She earned her high school diploma online.

One of Haley's first onscreen gigs came in a music video for Mexican artist Kevin Ortiz, as well as a role as a dancer and choreographer on an episode of the TV series Up in Arms . She was cast as a principal dancer on the video game Just Dance: Disney Party and would work for Disney again in 2013, playing a dancer on a 2013 episode of the Disney Channel TV series Shake It Up! , which starred Bella Thorne and Zendaya . She managed to also land a couple of roles in which she didn't have to rely on her dance ability, in the TV movies Christmas Twister , Adopted and Escape from Polygamy .

In 2013 her career had a boost when she was cast in a recurring role in the Pretty Little Liars spinoff Ravenswood , playing Tess Hamilton.

In 2014, Haley starred in her first feature film, called The Last Survivors , and followed that up with a part in an episode of the series Mortal Kombat X: Generations .

In the Sundance hit The Bronze , Haley played an up-and-coming star gymnast who gets a former Olympic medal-winning gymnast ( Melissa Rauch ) as her coach.

In 2015, she went back to TV for an episode of Law & Order: Special Victims Unit and six episodes of Recovery Road in 2016.

Also in 2016, Haley was cast as Hailee Steinfeld 's best friend in the high school-based comedy feature film The Edge of Seventeen . The movie, which screened at the Toronto International Film Festival, also stars Blake Jenner , Woody Harrelson and Kyra Sedgwick . While working on the film, Haley was also shooting a role in M. Night Shyamalan 's new thriller Split , which meant she had to fly back and forth from Vancouver to Philadelphia.

Haley is in a long-term relationship with actor Brett Dier , whom she met in 2013 when they both played roles on Ravenswood .

Haley Lu Richardson Is Ready To Be One Of Hollywood's Leading Ladies

When an actor takes on a part, it calls for research into the life of the character and all that surrounds their world. Just ask Haley Lu Richardson . When taking on the role of Stella in the film Five Feet Apart , the now 24-year-old put in an exhaustive amount of research into understanding the contemporary realities of living, thriving and coping with cystic fibrosis.

"It was a responsibility," Haley told Miss Vogue . "The number one priority for Cole [Sprouse] and I was to learn as much as we could about CF: medically about what it does to your body and what it does to your organs, how that feels and what happens in your life because you have CF and the treatment you have to do."

The plotline of the film follows the journey of Stella and her fellow CF patients as they navigate the difficult pairing of new-found love with hospital stays, CF side effects, treatments, harsh realities and the normal ups and downs of teenage life.

Five Feet Apart opens up the conversation about how those with CF want - and deserve - live as normally as possible. "[It was] just as important learning about how it affects you emotionally and it kind of changes and navigates the kind of person that you become and how you view relationships and how you make choices," Haley explained. "It’s this weird balance I learnt throughout doing it, having CF makes you completely different, because you have to adjust and it changes your life, but it doesn't affect you cognitively. It's just how it affects your organs and what you have to do with your life because of that. That complicated balance in how a person is changed was the most important for me to think about and tap into."

The film - that is now available on DVD - has received universal praise in the way that the director, Haley, Cole and their co-stars portrayed the often overlooked realities, with Haley's leading turn often lauded in the reviews. How did that feel?

"It’s been overwhelming at times but I'm really excited that people are getting a chance to see this movie. It meant a lot to me, it means a lot to me still. It’s definitely cool that people are seeing it... I think it's kind of unhealthy to give so much accord to these things that people write up. I also think that the audience for the movie is so different to the reviewers. Justin, the director, has been sharing with me messages and feedback that he has been getting from people with CF and young people. People have been leaving the movie theatre and hugging strangers and crying. That’s the kind of reaction that I feel like you want the most from a movie like this."

The pillar of the movie is without a doubt the rapport between Haley and Cole. Though you might imagine that the two stars would have crossed paths prior to joining Five Feet Apart , - that isn't the case.

"We really get along, and in a professional sense we both cared so much about bringing justice and doing justice to the CF community. [We felt] the responsibility of playing someone with CF in this big way because it is a rare disease and not a lot of people know about it, so this was a big thing for the community. A lot of people were really skeptical: 'Is this movie going to be this sappy romance thing and not an actual representation of people that live with CF?' So, we felt that responsibility as actors playing those characters to really just learn as much as we could and make them grounded and real and open. All I wanted was for people with CF to watch the movie and be like, 'Okay, I can see big experiences I've gone through in that character, in that scene.' Cole felt the exact same way."

The role of Stella was Haley's first time stepping into the leading lady role, something that she seems to have taken in her stride.

"Honestly, it was pretty exciting," Haley enthused. "I feel like I've been really lucky where I've got to play a lot of different types of characters, including different supporting roles and all these different things in movies. It’s totally different when you are the lead of a movie because your character is fully fleshed out on the pages itself. A lot of the time with a supporting role there is a different challenge because there is only so much of your story that is told in the movie and then you have to kind of have to do all this spy work, like fill in the blanks. Honestly, I loved being the lead. There is so much more to explore and, for me, what's fun about acting is actually being on set and having those moments while the cameras are rolling where you really feel like you are a different person for a couple of minutes. The more that you are in the movie, the more you get to do that."

We anticipate Haley is going to have plenty more time to do just that in the near future.

A self-described "ham" who grew up dancing, Haley Lu Richardson booked her first acting gig on the Disney channel in 2013. She went on to star in a series of independent hits ("Unpregnant," "After Yang") before striking white-hot with a breakout role in the second season of "White Lotus," HBO's smash hit dark comedy series. Despite the success (and memes about her character's wardrobe), Richardson says the thing she loves most about acting is that she gets to "feel and express and empathize as my job."

Haley Lu Richardson Opens Up Like Never Before on Therapy, Heartbreak and Learning to 'Be Capable on My Own'

The 'White Lotus' star shares how she overcame difficult times through dance and her unexpected journey of self-discovery

Haley Lu Richardson exudes an effortless, self-deprecating charm. Between bites of pineapple and dragon fruit during a PEOPLE photo shoot in Malibu, the actress radiates good humor in the sweltering September heat. “Organic deodorant doesn’t work—it makes you sweat more,” she declares with a laugh, taking off her Akila sunglasses. “My shirt smells like feet.”

Moments later Richardson, 28, struts in with a new look, tossing back her golden-brown locks and tilting her head this way and that, considering her image in an oversize wooden mirror. “My hair is less in front. Do you think I’m balding?” she jokes with her team. As a photographer approaches, her vintage dress falls. “Free the nipple, baby!” she exclaims, quickly pulling her gown back up.

Richardson’s personality often gets compared to that of her breakout White Lotus season 2 character Portia, the quasi-nihilistic Gen Z assistant forced to vacation with her codependent boss Tanya ( Jennifer Coolidge ). Wearing wacky, mismatched outfits that launched 1,000 memes, Portia gallivants around an Italian resort, trying to find purpose in the world. But lately Richardson is experiencing a different kind of transformation.

In July she got vulnerable on Instagram, telling her 2.2 million followers that she was going through a difficult time. “I was experiencing deep heartbreak and fully letting myself feel how scary that was, how unknown,” she says. Richardson declines to give more specifics but has no regrets about posting.

“I don't know if I'd ever just let myself actually feel those things without trying to fight it so much. It was a lot. I let myself feel sadness. And I just felt compelled to share that I wasn’t actually doing that great. It was so overwhelming, the effect that had, because I immediately felt less alone. Maybe because I hadn’t let myself feel that at other times in the past, where I’d felt lonely, down or lost—I just felt what I was feeling in that moment.”

Richardson garnered nearly 200,000 likes on the post, connecting deeply with her followers and feeling comforted by them. “It sounds so dumb that an Instagram post could affect me so much, but I just felt like people were being so honest and experiencing a shared feeling. We all go through these painful times, and to come together in that—that’s where compassion comes from. I felt like I was getting hugs from everyone.”

She takes a deep breath. There’s another side to the actress that many don’t know from her quirky onscreen persona. Her humor is a shield, but in the last few years—through life changes and therapy—she’s started to lean into her emotions.

That Instagram post wasn’t the first time Richardson had shown vulnerability. Last November she announced via an Instagram Story that she and her ex-fiancé ( Jane the Virgin alum Brett Dier ) had privately separated two years prior after more than seven years together. She had previously revealed on Busy Tonight in March 2019 that she popped the question to Dier while eating pizza at a strip mall , and he said yes. When articles continued circulating about their relationship, they felt it was time to tell everyone the truth.

“It was hard, but I got through it—that’s important and what matters. I was in a really long relationship. I spent a lot of life with someone, and it was very special,” she says, holding back tears. “I thought it could be forever, but it wasn’t. I had thought the whole time we were together that if it wasn’t going to be forever, my life would just stop.”

Three years after their breakup Richardson is proud of her strength. “The perspective of time to be able to be like, ‘Wow, I got through that, and I was capable of getting through something like that, and I’m capable of being on my own,’ . . . that’s been an amazing thing to learn.”

It’s that ability to embrace her feelings—she can’t help but be real—that truly sets Richardson apart from her Hollywood peers. She credits a lot of her self-awareness to therapy. “I've been doing therapy for six or seven years now, and I should have started long, long before that,” she says.

“Once you do it, and once you start feeling how it’s totally affecting, in the best ways, every single aspect of your life, it becomes a part of your life.” She pauses. “I hope this doesn’t come across like I’m giving a TED Talk on therapy and emotional growth,” she cracks. 

Born in Phoenix to mom Valerie, a graphic designer, and dad Forrest, a golf course architect, Richardson began taking tap and jazz classes at age 3. By high school she was participating in regional dance competitions. As an only child, “I learned how to keep myself occupied and entertained,” she says. “I was a ham and still am today.”

At 16, she moved to Los Angeles with her mom and eventually booked a TV gig, as a backup dancer on Bella Thorne and Zendaya’s Disney sitcom Shake It Up.

“It was nuts because I was so sure of what I wanted, but there was no real reason why I should have been so sure or so sure in myself,” she says. “I just had an intense feeling that’s what I was supposed to be doing: dancing and acting. I honestly was just a girl with a dream.”

Though she’s best known as an actor, Richardson feels most like herself in movement, whether she’s twirling naked alone in her living room or teaching choreography to 80-year-olds at a weekly class. In the past year she’s shared several emotional videos of herself dancing, which she explains are her vulnerabilities on display.

“Dance has been a huge grounding thing for me because I feel so deeply,” she says. “It’s very cathartic to be able to connect your body to those emotions that I feel.”

As she finds her way in the industry, Richardson is learning to accept her insecurities. “Do I have cellulite?” she whispers, settling into a chair and feeling her thighs. “Yeah, I do!” Like many young women, she struggled with self-confidence growing up—especially as she danced in a leotard 40 hours a week, analyzing her form in a mirror.

“I definitely did have some body dysmorphia,” she says. “I still have hang-ups. But I was really lucky too, to have incredible friends in dance growing up, that just made me feel so safe.” She’s since learned to feel comfortable in her own skin. “I’ve had to learn that there’s a time and place to be realistic, see things how they are and not how we think they could be,” she says. “That includes how I view myself.” 

Fittingly, her journey to self-acceptance helped manifest one of her longtime dreams. “This is really embarrassing to say, but it’s sincere,” she says, welling up. “One of the reasons [I became an actor] was because maybe I could get famous enough to meet the Jonas Brothers one day.”

Now she’s not only met Kevin , Joe and Nick, earlier this year the brothers cast Richardson as the star of their dance-heavy music video for “Wings, ” the lead single off the band’s latest LP, The Album. Throughout the video Richardson dances with friends in a hotel suite and even kisses a cardboard cutout of Nick while blindfolded. She has been a fan of the band since she was a teen.

“Those kinds of dreams don’t come true, but it did for me,” she says of the gig. “And it’s not lost on me. I am very thankful. It was the coolest thing.”

At one point in this interview, she’s surprised with a video from the Jonas Brothers.

“Hey, Haley, what’s up? It’s us,” says Joe in the clip. “We’ve got a question for you. You’re stranded on a deserted island. You can only bring one Jonas Brothers album. Which album is that going to be?”  

“I want to hear them say my name one more time,” she says, replaying the video.

Then she answers: “I’ve actually thought about this a lot, believe it or not. They just literally represent such important times in my life. So honestly, maybe just the Jonas Brothers album. Or A Little Bit Longer . I think those two are nearest and dearest to my heart.” She reflects, starstruck.

“I do really want to be their friend now, but I think they’re scared of me because I’m such a fan,” she jokes. “I really want them to know that I feel like I’m ready to be their friend if they would like that. I think it could happen.”

Later in the day Richardson sits inside the beachside bungalow serving as her makeshift dressing room, staring outside at the water.

“I feel shame a lot because of how sensitive I am, how much I feel and how much I can be, whether my happy moments are just so big and they overwhelm or annoy or embarrass other people, or if it’s just too much for a friend to hear Haley having a hard time again,” she shares, glancing at the “A Life That's Good” tattoo on her forearm in her father’s handwriting. “But there’s something about the release and the freedom of this rushing waterfall that I feel like I am taking the power back. I’m liking that about myself.”

Indeed, there is so much to love about Richardson. She showers with her longhair cat named Darbin, who makes frequent appearances on her Instagram. She crochets and watches dating shows before going to bed early. As for her own dating life? “I’d love to share my life with someone,” she says.

But with newfound wisdom gained from recent years, she also knows what she’s looking for: a partner who makes her feel safe and supported, chooses her and loves being chosen by her. “All the time, no matter what,” she adds. “I guess that’s love with another person.” Not that she’s looking for boring . “I mean, I love dancing, I love acting, I love cheese. It’s like just something that’s inspiring and comforting and feels right. Like cheese.”

As Richardson shimmies toward the outdoor space ready to film a dance segment, famed Los Angeles-based choreographer Galen Hooks —who’s worked with Janet Jackson , Britney Spears , Ciara and Camila Cabello —greets the actress to help her practice a 45-degree jump for the shoot. Richardson throws her head back, turns on her toe, then shifts her leg far above her head in an ultra-sheer Christopher Esber lace top and matching tulle-panel maxi skirt. “This is a good representation of me,” she says of the striking pose. “It’s powerful.”

As the shoot wraps in the ocean, Richardson’s years of dance training are apparent as she leaps around freely to Olivia Rodrigo’s “Bad Idea Right?” The waves pound, each rhythmic crash wiping the foundation and the candy-glaze rouge lipstick off her glowing face. She bounds out of the crisp aqua water: worries drained from her mind, breathing deeply, bare feet firm beneath her. She seems to be more herself than ever.

And that’s enough.
