Drea de Matteo

Drea de Matteo played Adriana La Cerva, the fiancé of abusive mobster Christopher Moltisanti.

Adriana eventually became an FBI informant and met a a grisly fate due to being "a rat".

Following her appearance in 'The Sopranos'', the 51-year-old actress appeared in a number of shows, including 'Friends' spin-off 'Joey', ’Sons of Anarchy’ and ‘Desperate Housewives’.

Earlier this year, Drea became an online content creator, charging a subscription fee for fans wanting to access her photos and videos.

Drea's motivation was a lack of income.

Speaking with Fox News Digital, she said: "People find that hard to believe that I was never really paid very much money for any of the jobs I’ve done.

"People think I’m made of gold, and I’m not. I’ve worked job to job.”
