The 34-year-old actress has praised her parent, who was a "working single mom", for achieving so much including a master's degree, whilst working and carrying out her motherly duties.

And the brunette believes she has inherited the same traits her mother boasts.

She said: "[She was] that working single mom who did it all: working, getting her master's degree, getting my sister and me to school. Definitely that's where I've got my work ethic from".

Although Alison struggled to understand the Scottish accent when she attended CalArts theatre programme in Glasgow, her determined character encouraged her to persevere with the course.

She explained: "They'd say things to me at length, and I'd just I'd agree to everything. I got a lot of quizzical looks."

Meanwhile, Alison appears in the new American series 'Glow', which she has described as a "unique animal".

Speaking about her latest venture to The Guardian Online, she said: "'GLOW' is such a unique animal. It's really unlike contemporary wrestling that is being done today. On the one side, it's about physicality, feeling comfortable and powerful within yourself, and it's also about discovering your inner warrior and your alter ego; another personality. Especially for the women here, who can be messy and aggressive in ways that women [in real life] so often feel like they can't."
