She is of mostly Irish descent, along with English, German, and French. Her first major role came in the short-lived television series Get Real (1999). She gained widespread recognition for her roles in The Princess Diaries (2001) and its 2004 sequel as a young girl who discovers she's a member of royalty, opposite Julie Andrews and Heather Matarazzo.

In interviews, Hathaway said that doing family-friendly films didn't mean she was similar to their characters or mean she objected to appearing nude in other films.

In November 2008, Hathaway started dating actor Adam Shulman.The couple became engaged in November 2011 and were married on September 29, 2012, in Big Sur, California in an interfaith Roman Catholic and Jewish service.
