The Parent Trap centers around twins Annie James and Hallie Parker (both played by Lindsay Lohan), who are separated at birth when their parents Nick (Dennis Quaid) and Elizabeth (the late Natasha Richardson) part ways. Annie goes to London to live with Elizabeth, and Hallie goes to California to live with Nick. The twins then fatefully meet at camp, and they scheme to switch places and spend time with the other parent.
Lisa Ann Walter rounded out the cast as Chessy, who works for Nick as a nanny to Hallie and a close family friend.
In the movie, Chessy falls in love with Annie’s family’s butler and right-hand man, Martin (Simon Kunz) — but in reality, Lisa was crushing hard on Dennis Quaid.
In a recent episode of Watch What Happens Live, Lisa spilled to Andy Cohen, “I absolutely had a crush on him.”
“I had a crush on him since his early days, especially in The Big Easy,” she said. On the last day of filming together, she asked her co-star for a special request. “You have to say a line for me,” she asked. “Which one?” he replied.
“The Big Easy,” she answered. Dennis then leaned over and recalled a line from the film. “Your luck’s about to change, Cher,” he whispered. She then promptly fell to the floor.
“He’s gorgeous,” she concluded.
