American actress Ashley Greene Khoury was born on February 21, 1987. She is well-known for her role as Alice Cullen in the Twilight movie adaptations by Stephenie Meyer.
Younger of two children, Greene was born in Jacksonville, Florida, on February 21, 1987. His parents are Joe Greene Sr., a former U.S. Marine who currently owns a concrete construction company, and Michele (née Tatum), an insurance company employee. She and her older brother, Joe, were raised in the Florida cities of Middleburg and Jacksonville. Prior to going to Samuel W. Wolfson High School in the tenth year, Greene attended University Christian School. At the age of 17, she relocated to Los Angeles to pursue a career in acting.
Career
She had previously intended to become a model, but was advised to focus on acting in commercials because she was too short (1.65 m) at 5 feet 5 inches to be a fashion model. She realised that she preferred acting over modelling after enrolling in a commercial and acting class and falling in love with it. Greene travelled to Los Angeles after finishing high school early in order to pursue an acting career.
She made cameo appearances early in her career on shows like Crossing Jordan and Punk'd. Greene's big break came in 2008 when she was chosen to play Alice Cullen in the movie adaptation of Stephenie Meyer's book series of the same name, The Twilight Saga. The Twilight Saga films, which were released in 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, and 2012, respectively, are Twilight, The Twilight Saga: New Moon, The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1, and The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2.
In the drama Skateland, which had its world premiere at the 2010 Sundance Film Festival, Greene played Michelle Burkham.
She reunited with her Twilight co-star Kellan Lutz in the 2011 film A Warrior's Heart. She also acted in the thriller Summer's Blood (2009) and the 2012 horror picture The Apparition from Dark Castle Entertainment.
Greene starred in the historical drama CBGB, which was released in 2013 and was based on the eponymous former music club in Manhattan.
Personal life In December 2016, Australian television personality Paul Khoury and Greene announced their engagement. On July 6, 2018, they exchanged vows in San Jose, California. Greene and her husband made the news of their first child's impending birth in March 2022. They welcomed a daughter in September 2022.
Before the start of the series' filming, Greene and her Twilight co-stars Kellan Lutz and Jackson Rathbone were acquaintances. She has acknowledged being a fan of the Florida Gators and having grown up watching football. In 2010, she was seen with Jessica Szohr and her then-boyfriend Joe Jonas at a Green Bay Packers game against the New York Giants at Lambeau Field. Selfies of Greene in her pants were posted online in 2009. Her attorneys vowed to file lawsuits against other websites who posted the images.
Greene posed for So Be commercials that appeared in the 2010 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition while wearing a body painted bikini and appearing nude. She won "The Style Icon Award" at the 2010 Hollywood Life Young Hollywood Awards and a People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals award for championing Avon's no-animal testing policy.
