Sheridan Crane is a fictional character on the NBC/DirecTV soap opera
Passions. She has been portrayed by McKenzie Westmore since the series
began in 1999, and was briefly portrayed by Shannon Sturges when
Westmore was out sick in 2005 and by Kam Heskin in 2006 when Westmore
was out on maternity leave and again in 2008 while Westmore was out
sick. In early flashback sequences Sheridan at age 12 was portrayed by
Sara Paxton. When Sheridan's history was retconned and her flashback
sequence age was downgraded from 12 to 6, she was played by Rylee
Fansler. She is often seen as a "poor little rich girl" but her love
for Luis Lopez-Fitzgerald made her true emotions arise. Sheridan was
inherently a good person for much of the series, until the final year,
where she became a villain.Sheridan is the daughter of Alistair Crane,
a world-famous billionaire (who secretly built up his empire through a
network of crime) and Katherine Crane. Born several decades into the
marriage of her parents, Sheridan was generally considered an unwanted
child by her father, Alistair, and she was ignored in favor of her
older brother, Julian Crane.Sheridan is the daughter of Alistair

found a man, Martin Fitzgerald, covered with a bloody sheet in her
family's living room. It eventually turned out that Martin defended
Sheridan's mother, Katherine, who was physically and sexually abused
by Sheridan's father, Alistair, who had stabbed Martin. Due to
Sheridan's vague memories as a little girl and the family concealment
of the whole ordeal, the event became a mystery and deeply traumatized
Sheridan, causing her to frequently sleepwalk, have mental breakdowns
and endure nightmares since her youth. Shortly after, Sheridan and
Julian were also informed by their father that their missing mother
was "dead".As a result of her uncontrollable fits, Sheridan was sent
away to Europe by her father. As Sheridan grew up, she became an
arrogant, spoiled and self-absorbed socialite much like Julian. She
hung out with the rich and powerful and even claimed friendship with
Diana, Princess of Wales of the British Royal family. Sheridan also
had a string of torrid love affairs, all of which ended with Sheridan
discovering that her boyfriends were only interested in her due to her
wealth. Sheridan Crane Top Movies & Young Movies
