Charmed – Phoebe Halliwell
Phoebe Halliwell
Phoebe Halliwell, played by Alyssa Milano, featured in all 178 episodes of Charmed, from seasons 1 – 8.
Phoebe, born November 2, 1975 is the baby of the family and is a spontaneous, free-spirited young woman.
Phoebe is originally the youngest of the Halliwell sisters, with Prue being the eldest and Piper the middle sister. However, after the death of Prue in season three and the emergence of half sister Paige in season four, Phoebe becomes the middle sister.
She was born as a witch with the power of premonition, which enabled her to see into the past as well as the future. This later allows her to project herself into the future and the past. She later gains the powers of levitation, which she often combines with her martial arts skills, and the power of empathy but later loses the latter two due to misusing them for personal gain.
She is a romantic, and later becomes a successful columnist and author. Early on, she often had a turbulent relationship with her older sister, Prue; later she mediates between Piper and Paige.
Her longest relationships are with Cole Turner for over 2 years, and with Coop. In 2006, the Angel of Destiny marries Phoebe and Coop, as seen in the series finale, and they eventually have three daughters.
She continues to work at the Bay Mirror and writes a book on finding love. Originally, Lori Rom was cast as Phoebe in the unaired pilot episode of Charmed. When the property was green lighted to go to series, Rom was unavailable. Producer Aaron Spelling called upon Alyssa Milano, fresh off her short-term guest appearance on Melrose Place to fill the role.
