Hilary Duff helped launch the 2000s with her amazing portrayal of Lizzie McGuire in the Disney show of the same name. The Huffington Post reports that January 12 marked 15 years since the iconic show debuted and how times have changed. Hilary Duff is now all grown up, but she will never forget her days as Lizzie. Duff paid tribute to Lizzie McGuire in an Instagram post.

“Happy 15 year anniversary #lizziemcguire thank you to everyone who helped made this show great! I know we were are grateful to be a part of your lives and hope we made you smile and feel like you had a friend in us.”

Hilary Duff reunited with Lizzie McGuire co-stars Jake Thomas (who played Matt McGuire) and Lalaine (who played Miranda Sanchez) earlier in 2015 to enjoy old times. Thomas documented the get-together on Instagram and Twitter.

Hilary Duff has moved on from Lizzie McGuire, but she always kept fans stoked. With a music career and acting in movies, she has gone on to be a great success. And with 15 years gone by, Duff has certainly hung on to her sense of style. The Daily Mail reports that Hilary Duff has just changed her hair from platinum blonde to lilac, which took an amazing four hours in the salon.

So now that she is all grown up, who did Hilary Duff have a crush on when she was a teen? In an interview with Cosmopolitan, which shows her best throwback looks, Duff opened up about her secret crush. Apparently, Duff’s secret crush was none other than Chad Murray, who starred opposite Duff in A Cinderella Story.

“I definitely had a crush on him. We had a few kissing scenes in the movie and I remember feeling pretty nervous about that, but then we became friends and I wasn’t so nervous anymore. I remember loving wearing a T-shirt to the premiere. I [had started] working with a stylist at this point, and they were like, ‘Let’s just throw a T-shirt on with it.’ And I was like, ‘Yeah, let’s do that!’ It was like a mind-blow moment.”

Here is a peak at Cosmopolitan’s best Hilary Duff throwback looks.

Even though Hilary Duff is reminiscing about Lizzie McGuire and her teen crush, there is no doubt she is all grown up – she’s a mom! Lilac hair aside, Duff has an adorable 3-year-old son named Luca, and he is the darling of her world. Duff recently spoke with People about her son and why he is such a good eater.

“You know how little a bag of spinach will melt down when you cook it? He can eat the whole thing. Basically, he just wants to have big muscles. He’s so funny — we’ll be eating, and he’s like, ‘Is this going to give me muscles? This going to give me muscles?'”

Hilary Duff adds that Luca doesn’t really like the spinach, but he does it anyway.

“You can tell he doesn’t love it, but then he’ll check and be like, ‘Is it working? Is it working?’ He thinks it’s going to happen instantly.”

Hilary Duff not only takes care of her son, but she also ensures that she takes care of her own health.

“I’m lucky to have help. I can call my nanny or my mom and say, ‘I really need to work out! Come over for an hour and watch Luca and let me go.’ I want to be fit and stay in shape, but I need it for my mental state of mind too.”

Kudos to Hilary Duff for keeping it real and caring for herself and her son so well!
