Gellar and her mother, Rosellen, a former New York City nursery school teacher (in L.A. in September), have always been close. Her parents divorced when she was 7 and Gellar, who graduated from Manhattan's Children's Professional School in 1994, was estranged from her father, Arthur, for years, until his 2001 death.
