My Sisters and Me is a show about family, love, and relationships, starring renowned actress Ellia English, who plays Ellia the naïve youngest sister, who has lived in the family home since birth and enjoys the quiet and comfortable life she’s made herself. Her bossy older sister Lena, played by Stephanie Spruill, and spoiled T-Ann, played by T-Ann Snaer, her middle sister, who has retired from modeling. Both divas return to the childhood house they love and own together, and along the way, disrupt Ellia’s quiet life.
