Sally Phillips

Born in Hong Kong on May 10, 1970, Sally Phillips isn’t just another face in the crowd. She’s the sort of actress you spot in a film and think, “Wait, haven’t I seen her somewhere before?”—and chances are, you totally have. Her filmography’s a quirky mix, with heavy-hitter credits like Bridget Jones’s Diary (2001), the wild ride that is Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason (2004), and even the weirdly delightful mashup, Pride and Prejudice and Zombies (2016). That’s right, she’s not afraid to dip her toes into the unexpected. There’s something about her comedic timing—sharp, a bit self-aware, and never overdone. You watch her on screen and she just gets it, you know? Maybe that comes from her blend of acting and writing chops. She’s penned scripts, added bits of herself into roles, and always managed to keep things fresh. It’s like she brings her own brand of wit to every project. And she’s not just hustling in the career lane; she’s managed to keep her personal life pretty steady, too. Since January 17, 2003, she’s been married to Andrew Bermejo, which, in showbiz years, is basically a lifetime. Three kids later, she still juggles family and film sets like it’s no big deal. Sally Phillips isn’t just a name in the credits—she’s a vibe. She’s got this ability to light up a scene, whether it’s straight-up comedy or something a bit off the wall. If you spot her name, you know you’re in for something a little smarter, a little funnier, and a lot more genuine than your average flick.
