Best known for her breakout role as Sally Draper, the sharp-witted daughter of Don and Betty Draper on the critically acclaimed AMC series Mad Men, Kiernan Shipka captured audiences’ hearts at a young age. As Shipka grew older, she continued to build an impressive resume, showing off her range in the 2015 independent teen comedy Fan Girl, where Shipka truly began to step into the spotlight on her own terms. Then, in 2018, Shipka took on a darker, more complex role—landing the lead in Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, the supernatural reboot of the classic Sabrina the Teenage Witch. It was a defining moment in Shipka’s career, solidifying her status as a rising star.
But long before fame found her, Shipka was already in front of the camera. She started modeling in commercials as a baby, making her first appearances when Shipka was just a toddler. Born to John Young Shipka and Erin Ann Shipka, she grew up in a supportive family environment that nurtured her early passion for acting. Away from the set, Shipka enjoys a quieter life with her two beloved German Shepherds, who are a constant source of comfort and joy.
On the personal side, Shipka has kept much of her private life under wraps, though it’s known she began dating Christian Coppola in 2019. Prior to that, Shipka was linked to model Charlie John Oldman, adding another chapter to her evolving story. Through every phase, whether she’s portraying complex characters or living life off-screen, Shipka continues to grow—not just as an actress, but as a young woman navigating fame with grace and authenticity.
She received a nomination for Best Supporting Young Actress at the Young Artist Awards back in 2011, thanks to her standout performance on Mad Men. It was definitely one of those moments that highlighted her early talent and set her apart. She really brought something special to the role, and the recognition was well deserved. That nomination, in particular, helped put her on the map and showed just how promising she was—even at such a young age, she was already making waves.
