7. Erin’s boob job derailed her health

Like her TV big sister, actress Mary McDonough (who played middle sister Erin) had a difficult time transitioning to a career beyond the goody-goody Waltons. She thought breast implants might help land her better parts. However, she suffered from health complications from her implants, and believes they lead to her contracting the autoimmune ailment Lupus. She has since gone on to become an outspoken activist for women’s health issues, even though she says she never intended to become “the poster girl for bad boob jobs.” She has since authored the book Lessons From the Mountain: What I Learned from Erin Walton.
