Grey was traumatized by her 1980s car crash and took a couple of years off from acting to get over it. During that time, she underwent plastic surgery to change the shape of her nose, which she'd always felt self-conscious of. The surgery dramatically changed her appearance to the point where even some of her friends didn't recognize her, and she's since said she regrets it. The 90s became something of a lost decade for her.
Thankfully, she eventually found her way back to both TV and film, helped by a successful stint on 'Dancing with The Stars' which she won in 2010. All that dancing she did with Swayze paid off for her in the end! More recently she's had a prolonged stint in 'Red Oaks' as Judy Meyers and starred in the 2018 movie 'Untogether.'
