1. She Dances

In addition to being an actress, Ruah is an avid dancer. She has a large dance background, even competing on the Portuguese version of Dancing With The Stars. Ruah got to show off her ballroom skills in an episode of NCIS: LA. She opened up about filming the episode to Parade. “They did know that I had participated in Dancing with the Stars in Portugal, but I don't know if that was the reason they necessarily wrote it in. They know I love dance, regardless of my participation in Dancing with the Stars, I have a dance background. I majored in dance in college."

2. She Does Cardio

During the pandemic, Ruah made sure to keep her fitness regime intact. She wrote about some of her favorite workouts in this Instagram video. In the caption, Ruah revealed that she does a lot of cardio exercises. “Started with a 5k stationary bike and then ran 1 mile at the end,” she says. Cardio is important for heart health, endurance, and blood flow.

3. She Works Out At Home

Ruah makes sure to work out at home. She revealed what she did to stay in shape during the pandemic in her Instagram video. In it, she is seen doing different workouts with one of her children in her arms. Ruah is seen doing squats, wall sits, and crunches. She captioned the post, “Just a few of the exercises from today’s home workout!”

4. She Paddleboards

Ruah does a lot of different activities with her family. One thing she likes to do is go paddle boarding with them. She shared this photo on Instagram of her and her family enjoying a day at the lake. In it, Ruah and her sun stood on a board in the water. Ruah captioned the post, “So far so good.”

5. She Speaks Out

Ruah isn’t afraid to speak out for things that she believes in. After Roe v. Wade was overturned in June, she shared this post on Instagram voicing her disapproval. She wrote, “I can’t even breathe as I read this. I want to cry in sadness and scream in anger. Scream because someone else thinks they have a say over my body or another woman’s. Cry for every young woman, raped, abused and impregnated against her will, who will have to live with the consequences forever because a stranger said she should. A ... piece of steel has more rights than I do. This is an incredibly sad day. My stomach churns with revolt at what this country has become."

1. Diving Training

Raymonde went through intense training for her role in Deep Blue Sea 3. “I got PADI certified before we flew out, then trained with the Frog Squad in Cape Town,” she says. “We rehearsed a lot of the diving sequences before we shot, especially the underwater fight scenes, some of which were pretty tricky (clearing a full face mask underwater isn’t easy). It was winter in South Africa, so the water was freezing. Some puppets were used, but mostly the ‘sharks’ on set were tennis balls on sticks.”

Raymonde gained a real appreciation for sharks while staying in Cape Town. I made a bet with director John Pogue that we’d go cage diving in Cape Town before we started shooting (he agreed) but there was so much training involved before cameras rolled and I think there was a small concern I may get eaten before we started,” she says. “Climate change is killing sharks at a more accelerated rate than any other time in history. Their home like ours is under attack. This is a big deal!”

3. Los Angeles Native

Raymonde loves shopping and eating in her home town of Los Angeles. “I grew up in West LA,” she says. “I remember the old Santa Monica Place with nostalgia (they had an indoor waterfall in the food court) so I typically go to the mall and complain about how much nicer it used to be. Jonathan Adler has nice expensive things for the house, though! La Petite Porte is very romantic. I’m Corsican and I heard it’s owned by Corsicans although this may or may not be true. You can order a cheese plate at the bar and pretend you have a reservation.”

4. Improvisation Scenes

Raymonde says playing convicted killer Jodi Arias was a challenge, as they had to film while the actual trial was happening. “I kind of liked it. I do remember that we did some improvisation,” she says. “The trial parts were the parts that we had so much of almost exact footage to base it on. There was so much coverage and close ups of her on the stand, and some of the dialogue was word for word what she said when she was on the stand with the prosecutor. That wasn’t too tough. That was crazy, though. She’d be on TV every night and the next day, I’m sitting in the same courthouse wearing the same outfit saying the same line she said yesterday on live TV. It was a trip.”

5. Life In Corsica

Raymonde loves the lifestyle when she visits family in Corsica. “No day is complete without a stop at a café for a drink before dinner,” she says, showing a picture of a cocktail. “This one’s my favorite, it’s water flavored with Licorice and Mint, and it’s the prettiest color. My Mom’s miniature Schnauzer approves (though he might be color blind.) And finally, dinner — which starts late and ends very late. Some delicious cheeses to end the meal with fresh green tomato jelly, scraps for the family pup, and a beautiful view of the Place at night.”
