However, she has been taking care of Gwenn Malick, who calls her the best auntie mom ever. In the years gone by, Gwenn has been confused with being Malick's daughter. 

Gwenn's public sighting with actress Malick dates back to October 19, 2005, after she was spotted with the sitcom actress during the 15th Annual Environment Media Awards in Los Angeles. As of this writing, Gwenn's family background remains largely unknown.

Talking to Us Weekly in February 2020, Malick opened up about her lifestyle. In the exclusive chat, the actress spoke about the things close to her heart.  

At first, she briefly touched upon her nickname "weed," given to Malick by her family members due to her physical growth at the age of eleven. She also revealed to the interviewer of her descent and called herself one-quarter Egyptian. 

As per Malick, she loves to drink super cold gin martinis and can grill salmon with excellence. At the same time, Malick expressed her expertise in preparing a yummy "poor man's soup" along with a mean salad.

While driving, she likes to blast R&B and sing along at the top of her lungs. The Dream On actress called dogs her best friends and revealed to have learned horse riding at the age of forty. 

Some of her hidden talents include being able to stand on her head in a cocktail dress, raise one eyebrow at a time, and whistle like a sailor. 

During her time on The Queen Latifah Show in 2015, Malick called herself a "12-year-old" at heart and explained how she still felt like a kid despite her age, which currently stands at 69.

As per Malick, she would have ended up working as a veterinarian helping her beloved animals if she wasn't involved in the entertainment industry. 

How Did Wendie Malick Meet Husband Richard Erickson? 

During her 2014 sitting with legendary rapper and television personality Queen Latifah, Malick revisited the time when she first met her current husband, Erickson.

In her own words, she was in-between relationships when one of her friends asked her to visit Mexico and help poor families by building houses for them.

Malick explained that she met her future husband, a foreman and crew member on the construction site, at an undisclosed location in Mexico.  

She recalled calling Erickson "an interesting guy," after being impressed by him during the first sighting.

Since then, the two have come a long way and are currently enjoying each other's company as husband and wife.Â
