This announcement comes just a few days after Duff found out about the passing of Stan Rogow, who was the writer and Emmy-nominated producer of “Lizzie McGuire.”

“Writing this right now is bringing back so many distant memories of what feels like a completely different time..,” she began, adding, “One where I had absolutely no clue where I was heading or how I was getting there, but where I had that eagerness and blind optimism that accompanies youth and your first opportunities to step up.”

Duff continued, “You heavily cherish the people who first believe and see something in you, and for me, there was a very special person who fought for me to land a role that would change the entire course of my life… and I’m so very sad to hear of his passing today.”
