Despite growing up with famous parents, it's always been important for Cassidy to forge her own path.

"It's important for me to have my career completely compartmentalized and separated from my mom's," she told ET in July. "It's hard because 90 percent of the time there's a preconceived notion about me going in for an audition, or anything, whatever it is. But at the end of the day, she's a mom and she wants to share in the experiences and be a part of it."
