Emily Irene VanCamp was born on May 12, 1986, in Port Perry, Ontario, Canada. Her parents are Cindy and Robert VanCamp, and she grew up with 3 siblings, an older sister Katie and younger sisters Alison and Molly. She began studying dance at the age of three with the goal of becoming a professional dancer. She was accepted at the École supérieure de ballet du Québec, the training program of the ballet company Les Grands Ballets Canadiens de Montréal.
VanCamp’s interest in acting was awakened in 1998 when she visited her sister Katie on the set of a film. She then began taking acting lessons and also hired a talent agent. After appearing in a series of television commercials, she made her professional acting debut in season 7 of the fantasy series Are You Afraid of the Dark? (2000).

Emily VanCamp received her groundbreaking role at the age of 15 when she was cast as regular Sam Dolan in the horror series Glory Days (2002). The series was very short-lived, but since it was canceled after only 9 episodes, VanCamp had the opportunity to prove its worth. Her appearance on Glory Days caught the attention of prolific writer and filmmaker Greg Berlanti, who gave her a spot in the main cast of his upcoming show Everwood. Van Camp’s starring role as Amy Abbott during Everwood’s 4-year course (2002-06) earned her much acclaim, including 4 nominations for the Teen Choice Award and 1 nomination for the Young Artist Award.

Relationship with Joshua Bowman, Are they Married or Engaged?
Emily VanCamp has had her fair share of romantic entanglements since she shot into the spotlight. Her most remarkable relationship to date is with English-born actor Josh Bowman. The duo already met on the set of the series Revenge in 2011. Their romance became publicly known in early 2012, although in some circles it is believed that they have only been together since 2011.
This beautiful couple announced their engagement on May 11, 2017, which takes their long-term romance to a whole new level. Interestingly enough, their characters in the Revenge series did indeed marry at some point, so it would be fascinating to see this couple turn their romance into reality on screen.
