DeWulf was born in New York City to Muslim parents, and spent her childhood in Georgia. As a child, she dreamed of performing, but was not allowed to attend acting classes. She was educated at Boston University School of Arts before starring in her first movie, an Academy Award winning short film entitled “West Bank Story”, playing the character of Fatima, a Palestinian who falls in love with an Israeli soldier. She moved to Los Angeles, alone, to increase her chances of making it in the industry.
Her next project, in 2005, was a role in the television series “CSI: NY”. A stream of steady work followed, with appearances in “Girlfriends”, “Numb3rs”, and “Love, Inc.” In 2009, she achieved perhaps her most high profile role to date in the movie “Ghosts of Girlfriends Past”, starring Matthew McConaughey. Based on Charles Dickens’s novel “A Christmas Carol”, DeWulf portrayed the “Ghost of Girlfriend Present” AKA “Melanie”, all roles boosting her net worth.
In 2012, DeWulf began work on the FX TV series “Anger Management”, based on the movie of the same name, co-starring with Charlie Sheen. Its first episode received the highest ratings for any sitcom debut in cable-TV history, and the show ran until the 22nd of December 2014, with a total of 100 episodes, despite receiving very poor reviews from critics.
Also in 2012, DeWulf appeared in ten episodes of the web series “Burning Love” as the character of “Titi” = the show is a spoof of reality dating shows produced by comedic actor Ben Stiller. In 2014, she was awarded “Best Actress” at the Comedy Nina Film and Screenplay Festival.
DeWulf has appeared in pictorials in a number of publications. In 2014, she was ranked 93rd in “Maxim’s Hot 100” and has posed for “Men’s Health”. She appeared in the first two series of the reality show “Hockey Wives”, starting in 2015, as the wife of Ryan Miller. DeWulf has made a good amount of money from her television, magazine, and film work, and her husband’s reported $6 million salary and $14 million net worth means that combined the couple are quite wealthy. DeWulf recently appeared in a reality show as herself – “Hell’s Kitchen” – in 2016.
In her personal life, DeWulf married artist James DeWulf – from whom she takes her stage name – in 2000. They divorced in 2010, and one year later, she remarried to Ryan Miller, a hockey player with the Vancouver Canucks. The couple have one child together. She has spoken out about fighting for roles that are “not ethnic specific”, on the importance of diversity, and has also said that although she considers herself “spiritual”, she no longer practises any particular religion. She speaks fluent Urdu, Hindi and Gujarati, in addition to English. She currently resides in Los Angeles with her family.
