Reilly grew up in the Los Angeles neighborhood of Hancock Park. Her father, John Reilly, was a longtime soap opera actor best known as Sean Donely on General Hospital; her mother, Liz (née Lily-Beth Janred), was a Swedish model-turned-businesswoman who died in July 2025; and she has four sisters. Her family runs a children's clothing store in Larchmont. After her father died in 2021, Reilly appeared on General Hospital in his tribute as his character's daughter, Annie (previously played by Courtney Halverson). When she was ten, Reilly wanted to leave school to become a child actor, but her parents refused. She attended Immaculate Heart High School in Los Feliz, where she acted in school plays. She studied method acting at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts, graduating in 2010. == Career ==
