Keri Russellrecently reflected on her time as a child star on “The Mickey Mouse Club,” and her theory about her exit from the show is anything but magical.

During an appearance on Wednesday’s episode of the podcast “Dinner’s on Me with Jesse Tyler Ferguson,” the “Diplomat” actor noted that she was on the long-running show from ages 15 to 17 — making her a few years older than some of her other famous former castmates, such as Justin Timberlake, Ryan Gosling and Britney Spears.
